  • 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,

We dont really get special stuff around these parts.  So are any of the below worth a shit?

Jeffersons Ocean

Knob Creek Smoked Maple

Baker's 7 years

Makers Mark Cask Strength

Wild Turkey Russell Reserve

Michter's

Jefferson's Reserve (and Jefferson regular)

Woodford Double Oak

Eagle Rare SB 10

Smooth Ambler Contradiction/Old Scout

James E Pepper 1776

Hudson Baby

 

Theres also Jim Beam Distillers Masterpiece that costs like too much to spend on Bourbon.  I think Eagle Rare is the one I've seen mentioned in this thread.  Though I like plain ole Buffalo Trace just fine.

I’m probably in the minority, but I really like the Jim Beam Signature Craft releases. I haven’t tried many, but I liked the High Rye recipe the most. 
 

Maker’s Mark Cask Strength is pretty solid and cheaper than dirt for what it is.

Did you get a call or pick it up off the shelf? 

Call

I would kill all of you just to smell that 

I’m a fan of their stuff. Will see how this one tastes.

Wow. I paid $166 for LE, what a ripoff! 

I saw a receipt posted, I'm thinking it was 190 out the door or so. Not bad for 20 year 4 roses goodness. They lasted pretty much all day in the gift shop (had a shit load apparently), I'm a little annoyed I didn't drive down to get one.

Riddle me this, Batman: 

George Dickel 12 year Tennessee whiskey $26.99

George Dickel 8 year Bourbon $29.99

Is the distinction between the two forms if whiskey that noticeable, otherwise, why wouldn’t I grab the 12 year every time? Did my store get the prices right?

What is the JD Coy Hill going for now? Last I saw it was near $800 late last week

Shaking my head. Where did this rabid Jack Daniel’s fanbase come from? No one cared when Heritage came out. JDSiBBP collects dust in stores across the country. 
 

I suspect the hazmat novelty of it must be drawing in the proof hounds.

With the influx into Texas, it’s down to about 500

So I should or should not open my bottle?

Took damn near 2022 to find one but I’ll take it…

No way would I call this out as Makers in a blind tasting… as soon as you detect the fruit notes you get smashed with oak/smoke which then tapers off to chewy grains.

Can’t say I love it, but it’s very unique.

Tis the season of employee gifts and I’m wondering which of these I should keep for myself…

Leaning towards the Ferrand, but what say you Shag?91ebb3b156b3f2bf2944040d9a938ef5.jpg

I don’t know WTF is going on with the servers… but it ain’t great.

I picked up a FAE-02 today. It’s supposed to be a smidge better than FAE-01.

Was offered one and chose the Michters instead [emoji2371]

Good choice. FAE 02 should be everywhere by next month if the release follows the FAE 01 schedule. 

What's the deal with this Wolves Whiskey Willett collaboration thing I keep seeing popping up on social media bourbon pages?

I would keep the Dram to trade, since those have gone way up in value.

For drinking purposes, I love OE7 and would drink it every day if I could.

Stopped by the local store today and they had cases of Blanton’s on the floor. Picked up a couple of those to restock, a 1.75 of Buffalo Trace, a 1.75 of Eagle Rare, a Bardstown Ferrand, and a WT Rare Breed Rye. There are a lot of $100+ bottles from distilleries I’ve never heard of sitting on the shelves right now.

Had a similar experience at one of the many honey holes I visited this week. Listened, sipped and mostly passed, but there are a few that I’ll give to others and see what shakes.
