South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I'm digging that little table thingie on the rear.

The best general selection is at Frugal's ABC behind the mall, but they don't carry either of those. I think Greenwood is too small of a market for good bourbon. There is a much larger white liquor market. I actually had that conversation with a guy in Coronaca who is something of a bourbon connoisseur. Speaking of Coronaca, head to Lakeside ABC and ask for Buffalo Trace at the counter. It's a small store, but being close to the lake and affluent neighborhoods, it seems they carry a better mid to top shelf selection.

tl;dr Go to Lakeside ABC

 

Thanks dude. Frugals gets both of em but not often, once a month or so and sells out instantly. I will check lakeside out for sure!

The surgeons she works with are insane about bourbon. I ain’t dropping 1-4K on it though, I’m cool with the good run of the mill stuff. Seems buying and selling the higher end bottles is super popular now. Freaking crazy.

 

Damn. I've seen some bourbons that were pretty pricey, but never that much.

If you go by there grab a bottle of the Evan Williams Single Barrel. Don't let the Evan Williams name throw you. It is really tasty.

 

Ya most single barrels are good, been sipping the 4 roses single barrel as my daily. Awesome stuff for the price.

 

4 Roses is really tasty, too, but as a daily? I would either need to drink less, make more money, or send my wife to medical school.

 

My current Bourbon supply. The Widow Jane is really good, this week I found a Jefferson Ocean. They put their barrels on board a ship for 2 years. Supposedly the different temperatures and humidities make each run of Bourbon unique. This was Voyage 19:

 

I saw the Jefferson's Ocean at Costco today for $69.99. That's a good price, but I didn't get one. I've had it before, and liked it, but there are others in that price range(and less) that I like better.

 

Hadn’t tried it yet, I’m gonna crack it open tomorrow.

 

Yea it got flagged for removal lol.

 

I dont believe I have seen either of those before. That is really cool about the Jefferson Ocean.

 

I’ve got an unopened Voyage 14. Bought it because it’s a cool story. Ive got quite a bit of bourbon but have been on a tequila kick lately. I shift every so often...bourbon, cognac, whisky, etc.

 

I have never drank cognac before.

 

Currently working on 1792. Pretty nice for $27 on a 750ml.

 

I'm a bourbon only guy. I have a couple, or 3, pours every night.
My daily drinker is Weller SR. I buy it in bulk when I get to my secret spot. Got a dozen bottles last time I went.
My top 5 are (in no particular order):

Weller Special Reserve
Eagle Rare
Buffalo Trace
Elijah Craig
Benchmark #8 (bottom shelf, very cheap, but tasty)

 

I like the Elijah Craig a lot, and the Woodford Reserve.

 

Jack Daniels

 

That Benchmark is, IMO, is much better than the Jack Daniels...and cheaper. Of course, everyone has different tastes.

 

Yeah, but....

 

Un-American!
