  • I’m exhausted, but she’s basically done... just a few touch ups and a second lamp... then I get to focus on balancing out the left side. Been very thankful to have this as a distraction during COVID,

Total Wine posted they had Old Fitzgerald 11 year and Rhetoric 24 but that was 8 hours ago so I’m sure it’s gone.

First time I’ve ever seen the FR SB in Barrel Strength

All Four Roses barrel picks are barrel strength.  But the OBSQ I have is probably my favorite bourbon that I own, so hopefully that mash bill and yeast mix treats you right.

Opened my IW Harper 15yr today. Very smooth and really good. Thought $75 tag was a little more than I wanted to pay, but is well worth it. Will do the same tomorrow with RY10.

I see a $28 price tag on Weller Antique in the photo above and I get ragey at the price gougers out here who have jacked the price up to double that.

And that’s on a Liter. The 750 was $22.
1.75 was $44.

I've got a Old Fitz 11 waiting for me at Specs.  Reviews aren't very good for the price.  Oh well, I'm going to buy it anyway.  At least the bottle looks cool.

What kind of shelf life does bourbon have? I was cleaning out some old bottles from my parent's house that had to be 30 years old or older (nothing good). They were cloudy with sediment on the bottom. They didn't smell bad but we poured them out.

Yeah, true. But I would still like to try. 

Oh, if anyone is looking for Rebel Yell 10, Debs on 183 North has a couple bottles. They also have some JJB single barrel, and OWA

Can Deb move to Houston and open a store? Please and thank you.

The ry10 was 70 and the owa was 60 for the 750. They had Elijah Craig bp for 100, as well. I decided to not buy shit there anymore, but that’s just me.

Weird. OWA was $40 last week at Deb's.

Some is overpriced. At the same time, you’re not going to see those items in most stores anyway. Yeah capitalism. 

There’s a bottle of Yippee Ki-Yay at TW Mueller for $80 if anyone wants it.

Found a Rhetoric 24 year for 115. Thought it was a good deal, but passed anyway.

I think you'll enjoy it. Again, it reminds me of Hancock's Reserve with a hint of salt (it's aged near the coast in Virginia).

I wouldn’t bitch if I had to pay $75, it’s fucking great.

I’ve been drinking JD Single Barrel barrel proof tonight on an empty stomach and that shit will kick your ass

I would pay $75 if I saw it in the wild, mainly because I never have

One of many pages on the menu.  The pricing on this page stood out.

Where did you find it?!?! I had some for the first time a few weeks ago in Vegas, and was blown away. It's now on my "buy if you ever see it" list ...

Will he go pick me one up? I will pay him

Son said they had gotten one and only one bottle,  and that he's not actually sure why the owner let him buy it,  other than he said he was looking for father's day Blanton's and they didn't have any,  so they offered him this.  I had said the same -  "go buy as many as they have".  

Northwest Hills Liquor on Far West has Blood Oath (assume it's Pact #4, but not 100% sure) for $90.  Manager said he's trying to open up some shelf space and wants to sell last 3 he has.  Offered it to me for $80, but since I grabbed his last bottle of RY10, I passed.  My wife is seriously questioning my bourbon purchases at this point.  It's becoming an almost daily question of "So, what did you buy today?" when I get home.

I was distracted by the RY10, and now I am second-guessing his price offer on the BO.  He may have even offered for $70.  Just FYI in case that price sways anyone here who is on the fence.

I'm not even sure what I'm looking at there, but I'm positive that it makes me ragey.

I don't think the Blood Oak Pact 4 is moving. I've seen bottles of it stacked up on the shelves in Houston. I'm thinking this release isn't very good. If so, I was duped, but it should be pretty decent. 

My purchase did spark up a good relationship with my current best bourbon connect. He limits me to one bottle per trip, but he'll sell me whatever he has.

Thanks for the heads up. I passed on a bottle of Rhetoric 23 today for $124. Did I make a mistake? 

I had a pretty good haul this week: 

3 bottles of Weller Antique 

2 bottles of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof 

1 bottle of E.H. Taylor Single Barrel

1 bottle of Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream 

Regarding the Bourbon Cream, Village Liquor on Wirt Road in Houston has a lot of it for $20 a bottle. 

I'm cracking open a bottle of Thomas Handy in a few hours. It should be a good weekend gentlemen. 

 

Cedar Park Costco has a few bottles of Yippee Ki-Yay available for $69
