Favorite Whiskey?

Congratulations. Blessings for your new baby.

 

Congrats! We are about one month Out from baby #1. I might take a page from your book when they arrive.

 

I told myself I wouldn't open this unless it was a special occasion...then the Avs shut out Edmonton. And here we are.
edit..apparently every time I post it's my first post.

 

Congrats dude!

 

sounds like a good plan to me

Best of luck with delivery!

 

Score

 

Saw this on Reddit, it’s a Safeway in Brentwood, CA. My brother lives by there and picked up the two bottles below for me

 

Is Nikka any good? I saw that at my local store. Thought about it but didn't buy any.

 

I haven’t had From the Barrel yet, so had to have him pick it up. I thought the Coffey Grain was delicious though and would pick it up again

 

Nikka From the Barrel is delicious. Almost like bourbon and scotch had a baby haha highly recommend it. That's also a really good price for it

 

Thanks for the suggestion. Just picked up a bottle. Fair price. I've also had the Hatozaki. Very good as well with a hint of peat smokiness.

 

Another one to ask about…Basil Hayden Dark Rye? I’ve heard a lot of folks say BH is their favorite rye. But then I couldn’t figure out if there was a regular rye and a dark rye so I passed when I saw it.

 

hard pass on anything basil Haden, I’ll admit I had my love affair with it when I started out. Looking back, it’s just high priced low proof entry whiskey….the whole line

 

Everyone home safe and tucked into bed….got me a warm up, and a night cap

 

Ive become a big fan of Old Forester. I haven’t tried the barrel strength.

 

My current Bourbon collection. Have a Weller Antique on the way from my brother in-law in Kentucky so I'm feeling pretty pumped. Any recommendations to help round out the collection?

 

Snag some Old Forester 1910 and 1920

 

looking good

you have some brown Forman and heaven hill but somehow you’re missing old forester and Elijah Craig…easy and amazing pick ups. Also, not everyone agrees but I’m a huge fan of new riff, their oldest stuff is 4-6 years but I believe once it hits 8-10 it’s gonna be amazing

 

I’m on my first bottle of New Riff and I concur. Actually too all the above lol. I get EC at my Costco for $26.99 so it became my daily. I’m down to one bottle of Old Forester 1920. All great pours that can be found easily, at least where I’m at.

 

Where are you guys finding New Riff? I love it, and have some on hand thanks to @Bowhuntercoop, but have never seen it in the wild
