Well don’t go doing anything rash and pouring it down the drain.

Nah, just poured it last week for people who’d never had it.  But when that bottle is gone I’m buying something else instead.

  • 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,

I’ll drink to that. And the EW BiB might be the best $15 out there. I’m not saying I’m drinking it neat, but if I need a cocktail EW BiB > Jack/Crown/all the other nasty shit

During difficult times it was my daily drinker on the rocks.

Timely thread is timely.  Just picked up a bottle of EW BiB a few days ago when I saw it for just under $15.  Don't think you can do better for under $18 or so (which is the amount I typically see it priced at).

They still have some bottles left? 

I think they might. Worth calling the store...I'm sure they'll hold one for you.

Picked up a couple ryes today. Alberta Cask Strength Rye and a Elijah Craig Rye. Ended up seeing a few more bottles of the EC at NASA if anyone is looking.

Hit up poison girl for the first time and tried a few pours that I’d never had before

I had Weller 12 ($12) and Old VW 10 ($30) back to back, and didn’t feel like there was much of a difference there. Similar pours, but VW was maybe 10% better

Yeah, Richmond actually.  He's been tracking down the hootch, and making runs.

Yeah but that’s some of the best 10% in wheated bourbon. 
 

ORVW the last two Christmas Eves. It’s sublime.

Yeah, the EC Rye has officially dropped in Texas. Spec's has it and I saw at Goody Goody today as well. 

 

In early opinions Hank? I’m cracking my bottle later tonight.

I haven't opened it yet. My expectations aren't high. Let us know!

Thumbs up. Better than Rittenhouse. Not as good as Pikesville. Beats the the pants off of many $60-70 ryes.

It’s a sad day when I get excited about landing an ER10 at retail. There was a time a few years ago I had over 20 in the bunker.

 What’s next on the chopping block? 4 Roses SiB? The last victim was McKenna 10.

I could see it with Four Roses SIB. Barrel Strength sells out in about an hour at Total Wine.

Yes Las Vegas. I’ll be there in a few weeks. Taking an extra suitcase that your tax dollars will be paying for, so maybe I’ll find something decent and indulge one of you poor saps.

My update Old Forester Power Rankings : 

1) Birthday (2020 and 2019 were awesome) 

2) Old Forester SiB Barrel Strength 

3) 1870 

4) 1897 

5) Old Forester 100

6) 1910

7) 1920 

8.) Rye 

I wanted to move OF100 up. It's so cheap and so good. 1897 opens up really well, but I still like 1870 by a hair. I need to open my bottle of Old Forester 150 Batch 3. 

I fully acknowledge I have no shot of ever getting a bottle of 117.

What's the consensus on the Kentucky Owl FullSizeRender-290.thumb.jpg.e5fc3fc669aa7b5031aaa1d5090adaaa.jpg

I'm a yes on Confiscated. Not a great price, but I'm skeptical on people finding it for sub $90. If you've never had their stuff, I'd recommend it. With Dedman leaving I expect Kentucky Owl to go downhill in a hurry.

That's the MSRP price I guess. Va has to sell at those MSRP prices.

OF100 above 1910 and 1920?

I like 1910 better than either 1870 or 1920.  I guess I need to try the 1897 and the 100.

The rye is actually pretty respectable for its price.

OFBB . . . someday.

The rye is pretty good. Great value. It's a deep list.

BigDickheadhornfan is correct, I fuckin love me some RR SiB picks. The 10 year is hot nasty garbage and the regular SiB is unremarkable. Never been able to get on the Turkey train other than that until this Kentucky Spirit.

Rare Breed is ok, same for the rye. Longbranch is swill. The Japanese release 13 year was bleh.

But that’s enough Turkey talk. Let’s talk taterrific goodness that came in the mail yesterday.
