October 29, 20205 yr i still haven't opened my rock hill from the great grocery store score of 2020. maybe election night. as for the idaho gambit, i can probably jump in the car and go, but probably best if i pack before i explain it to the wife.
October 29, 20205 yr TW upped the price on W107? I’d still pay it if I can nab some! Buffalo Trace did most of the price increase. The MSRP is now $49.99, I believe. RHF is good. It’s not anything I’d actively hunt for, nor lose my mind over finding. The $60 price band is more competitive than ever, and I’m not positive it’d win a blind vs other favorites of mine in that price band.
October 29, 20205 yr Lost our 2nd or 3rd best commit of all time tonight. Might end up opening and emptying a Rare Breed in one sitting, boys.

I need to stop giving Blanton’s as gifts. Four is pretty low. I still have one handle of Weller 12 left from 2017. Sigh, my former honey hole would sell me as many handles as I could buy, but I showed financial restraint and didn’t buy them out. Terrible decision on my part. Yes I’m a Buffalo Trace fan boy, but I have a respectable amount of Heaven Hill. Note: The IW Harper bottles are Poor Man’s Pappy. I currently have three batches sitting. You need a bourbon master to keep guard over that hootch... I volunteer

October 30, 20205 yr Cheap Wheat Night. Larceny Single Barrel and Weller Green Label. Cleansing the palette before the main event tomorrow. Blanton’s Straight From The Barrel.
October 30, 20205 yr Revisiting Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel tonight. Better than I remembered on the neck pour but still not sure it’s worth $20 more than a good 9-10 yr store pick.
October 30, 20205 yr I got two 2019 OFBB, one for each of my twins born last year. We hire Urban and I’mcracking one of them and making the twins split it when they turn 21.Keep yours. We will crack mine.
October 30, 20205 yr Keep yours. We will crack mine.We fire Hermie and land Urbie I’m bringing mine over and we’re drinking both. Straight from the bottle. We’ll make little J and Chester clean up the aftermath
October 30, 20205 yr 13 year Smokewagon private pick. BigD comes through once again[emoji1598]And that’s not even the best sample in that group I gave you. [emoji16]
October 30, 20205 yr If we hire Urban this year, I will play ‘crack irreplaceable bottle’ and open my 2014 4RLESB. Last Rutledge selection
October 30, 20205 yr Picked up some early Xmas gifts for my team...Who do you hate that gets the Larceny?
October 30, 20205 yr Just finished an Eagle Rare. Next up is either EHT, Weller 12 or Elmer T. Just me drinking on the back porch. Wife (no pics, I’ll fucking cut you man) drinking a Pine Ridge cab. Will Surly be judgemental of me if I drink both the Pine Ridge and one of bourbons? All these questions and no definitive answers. AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH. Please help.

October 30, 20205 yr on the subject of michters...my buddy is in the new disney show "the right stuff". he was in orlando shooting for a while last year, and like always, became chummy with all his co-stars. one night, they got to drinking brown liquor, and my buddy says he's a big michters fan. turns out, the guy who plays gordo is also a big fan, and has a hookup with the distillery, so he made a call to send some down for the group. he sent me this photo of when the shipment arrived. pretty much every variation, including a couple cases of 10 bourbon and 10 rye. said they also sent a 20 rye as a wrap present.

October 31, 20205 yr Blanton’s Straight From The Barrel is BTAC level juice. I’d compare to the bourbon version of Handy.

Kicking myself for picking Gold over this in Greece last year... or not buying every bottle in the store and shipping back to the states. Also, regarding the Larceny, that’s going straight into mini bottles of poor(er) man’s pappy... I wouldn’t want to be so discourteous as to offer any man that bottle as a gift.

Sweet mother of pearl. I’m suddenly less impressed with the two M10 rye, one M10 Bourbon and two barrel strength rye I scored this year.
October 31, 20205 yr I spent way too much money yesterday on the bourbon trail. I also showed a tiny bit of restraint and passed up a 15 year Willett for $750 and a lux double barrel 12 year or it would have been worse.

October 31, 20205 yr Those Heavenhill bottles have my attention.13 year, suckers are expensive so they better be good.
October 31, 20205 yr Which is the second from the right?EC Toasted barrel on far right, William heavenhill 13 year second from right, and grenades next to that.
October 31, 20205 yr Are those 4R the same recipe or each different?4 different recipes with 2 of each. Obsv, oesk, oesv, and oesf. I'm a sucker for four roses bs. Stopped at Cox creek as well as distillery.
October 31, 20205 yr A heaven hill gift shop only release as far as I know. Basically 8 year Elijah Craig at 125 proof in a fancy bottle
