Favorite Whiskey?

Super Score day! Wasn’t planning a stop, but glad I did!

 

you the man!

I have a Rye, but bottles like that dont get opened unless I have 2...thought it would have happened by now, bourbon BOOM

 

dang. that weller looks dark as hell in that lighting

excellent day!

 

It does. Just dark in my office at night. The KC was during the day and is a great place for photos with the natural light. I almost waited to take a photo until tomorrow for that reason

 

Picked up a new one to me. Didn’t want to spend more than $50 and this came in at a penny under

Blurred to hide the war zone that is my 17 month old’s play area

 

@Hook78 beat me to the question, but glad he asked

sounds like a winner to me!

 

Well I can tell you this: I’m highly intrigued.

 

Hell yeah! Great haul.

 

So I participated in a Whiskey Connoisseur Tasting at Heaven Hill. They had it as one of the samples we tried. I was really good. After the tasting, we were allowed to purchase one bottle. It's the most I have ever spent on a bottle of bourbon. We had to make our choice at that time, since the bottles were so limited. Anyway, I think I made a good decision, I was surprised at the prices I found online once I googled it. I have never sold a bottle of bourbon, I only trade. But, I am considering selling this one if I get an offer I can's refuse. I have a few friends who sell on the secondary markets doing some research for me.

Anyway, we had a great trip, found a EH Taylor and Sazerac Rye at Buffalo Trace, then the Blanton's and other stuff at a few liquor stores on the way to Louisville.

 

Holy forking shirtballs

 

That’s awesome! I wasn’t into bourbon yet when I lived in OH which is a shame given proximity to KY. You’re living the dream! I’d like to get up there this year if conditions permit. Meaning, if the wife lets me.

 

Wish I had the time and funds to do more tours, tastings, and such. I was lucky my daughter had a volleyball tournament in Louisville, giving me a good reason to take a extra day to enjoy the trip. Hopefully my daughter plays some college teams in Kentucky allowing me to do something like this again.

 

Wow. I wish I could find a single bottle around here.

 

Wow. I know asking isn't the same as getting, but damn.

 

I did post this about a week ago... Check your PMs

 

This bottle is really growing on me. I like it a whole lot. I think it’s more than 1/2 gone already.

 

Well, got the call from my local dealer yesterday for the annual “Pappy List.” I was second in line so I had access to everything…Pappy 12, Old Fitz 19yr, EHT SiB, EHT SB, Weller 107, Parker something, Four Roses something something rare, but went with the Elmer T Lee. I have half a bottle of Lot B left so I let someone else get lucky. We can normally just pick one, but when I went by they offered me the stuff that didn’t sell yet…Old Fitz was very tempting…but not for $700

 

Anyone besides me drinking their bourbon tonight????? Cracked the cork on this one tonight. Impressions to follow.
