Favorite Whiskey?

In the process of moving and in temp housing. Just discovered this shop around the corner from me. Wow, never seen a selection like theirs…my new favorite place. Picked up a couple bottles that I’ve been meaning to try, but looking forward to sampling many more. Never saw so much BT sitting on a shelf.

 

Bowmans is amazing! You will enjoy it.

 

quick story, I was at work several years ago. I was talking to a coworker about some $30 Dalmore I had bought. It came in a black box with a pamphlet showing the other types they have including a 40 year old one. Online prices at the time showed it was $14,000/bottle. I'll never forget what my coworker said. "Can you imagine living the lifestyle where that sounds reasonable?"

My favorite goto these days is Breckenridge.

 

Bowman! Cheers

 

You've never heard of Spec's? Texas biggest liquor store chain. They're like the Buccee's of liquor

 

I have yet to drink a bad whiskey as I like them all in their own way but in my mind there is one that stands alone at the top. It's expensive but hell I'm worth it!

 

Specs is huge in TX...at least when I was there 10 years ago. Biggest alcohol store I've ever seen, about the size of a Costco. Never before, or since, have I received free samples of duck paté.

 

Cheers!

 

Man I've been sleeping on BT because it's literally 40 something a handle at the grocery store out here, and always in stock. But I bought a handle, so I'm trying to kill my 750 bottle, and I have to say, it's damn good bourbon.

 

Been weeding out the low bottles lately. This is usually one of my favorites, but not this bottle, was below standard from start to finish. Looking forward to opening the next one

 

single barrel is usually pretty tasty. Better than the small batch but not as good as the barrel proof or four grain.

 

Scored a single barrel for retail it was a good day

 

agreed

where in NJ you located? Maybe we can get a tasting going on

 

Hunterdon County, near Clinton

 

I saw a bottle down here…..800 bucks. I just laughed at the owner and walked out.

 

Ya it’s my daily and even against the higher end bottles it’s still prolly one of my all time favorites. Just soooo good for the money.

 

Jealous! Enjoy!!

 

nice, you’re only 1.5 away

let me know your current hunt/want list and I’ll grab stuff I’d I see it

 

Got a few new ones yesterday.
