Sorry Demetri, I couldn't wait to try these. Comparing the Maker's Mark BRT-01 and BRT-02, the 2022 Wood Finishing Series release. Thanks to Corked Bixby Knolls for having these at MSRP!The BRT-01 was aged in the high, hot part of the rickhouse with charred American oak staves. It has notes of pepper, caramel, and bacon. The BRT-02 aged in the lower, cooler part of the rickhouse with French oak staves. It has notes of rich hot cocoa, brown sugar, and cloves. Both come in at 109.4 proof. Both are very good but BRT-02 is definitely my personal favorite. Paired the whiskey with a Alec Bradley Magic Toast cigar. ..... "Be as decent as you can. Don't believe without evidence. Treat things divine with marked respect — don't have anything to do with them. Do not trust humanity without collateral security; it will play you some scurvy trick. Remember that it hurts no one to be treated as an enemy entitled to respect until he shall prove himself a friend worthy of affection. Cultivate a taste for distasteful truths. And, finally, most important of all, endeavor to see things as they are, not as they ought to be." ~ Ambrose Bierce ..... #cigar #CigarLover #CigarAfficionado #cigarphoto #cigarsnob #cigarlife #cigarsmoke #alecandbradleycigars #SailorsAndSticks #cigarsandwhiskey #TapThatAsh #whiskey #bourbon #makersmark #makersmarkambassador #WhiskeyNeat #WhiskeyAfficionado #whiskeygram #WhiskeyLover #whiskeyphoto #whiskeylife #quote #quotestagram #ambrosebierce (at Coastal San Pedro) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmxzhkRrfPV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Il doit être solennellement rappelé que le pet-de-nonne est une pâtisserie, et que le riz-de-veau à la financière n’est pas un sourire bovin préparé selon la recette d’une employée de banque. - Ambrose Bierce, Le Dictionnaire du diable, 1906.

"…Pushed you over the line between absurdism and fantasy, and that is the line, my friend, between genius and gobshite.” —Samuel Beckett I treasure my copy of Ambrose Bierce's satirical "TheyDevil's Dictionary," masterfully illustrated by Ralph Steadman to accompany the cynically comedic (re-)definitions. #MondayMood #ralphsteadman #ambrosebierce #devilsdictionary #illustration #ink #surrealism #absurd #fantasy #genius #gobshite #absurdism #philosophy #skepticism #existentialism #nihilism #camus #samuelbeckett #quote https://www.instagram.com/p/CA3GOoqAagf/?igshid=1tokcycwhcxsr

O Cristão, da série "Entre sem bater".
Uma frase, aparentemente, mal humorada, certamente é uma verdade.
Hipócritas não se alinham com a verdade, nem nas orações.

. Bersikap Sinis pada Hidup merupakan kumpulan esai dari pelopor penulis realis Amerika Ambrose Bierce. Esai-esai dalam buku ini merentang dalam berbagai tema, mulai dari: Peradaban, Dunia yang Gila, Keabadian, Hukuman Mati, hingga Emansipasi Perempuan. Dengan pengamatannya yang tajam, satir, sinis, menjadikan buku ini sebagai risalah penting tentang topik yang masih bergema hingga kini sebagaimana pada zaman saat buku ini terbit pada 1912 Ambrose Bierce lahir di Ohio tempat dia menjalani masa kecil yang tidak bahagia. Bierce menulis sejumlah cerita horor, puisi, dan esai yang tak terhitung jumlahnya. Bierce paling dikenal untuk bukunya The Cynic's World Book (1906), yang pada 1911 diubah menjadi The Devil's Dictionary. Hidupnya berakhir misterius. Pada 1913, ia pergi ke Meksiko dan menghilang, kemungkinan terbunuh dalam revolusi Meksiko. . .Ambrose Bierce, Bersikap Sinis pada Hidup, Yogyakarta, Bakung Putih, April 2021, 136 hlm, 62.000 #AmbroseBierce #BersikapSinispadaHidup #PenerbitBakungPutih #KatalogJBS #Sinisme https://www.instagram.com/p/CYtNYG6BDZG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Excellent collection of 12 stories written by a wide range of authors from Dostoevsky to Bierce to Kuttner to Borges and more. All of the stories have theme of dreams; funny dreams, frightening dreams, puzzling dreams and thought-provoking dreams. Not a stinker in the bunch. Cover artist is uncredited and unknown.

In honor of Battle of Antietam’s bloodiest day today, 1862
Ambrose Bierce: "He had slept through it all, grasping his little wooden sword with perhaps a tighter clutch in unconscious sympathy with his martial environment, but as heedless of the grandeur of the struggle as the dead who had died to make the glory." https://americanliterature.com/author/ambrose-bierce/short-story/chickamauga
