Favorite Whiskey?

$125 is just too big of a pill to swallow for a Bourbon with no info. Reviews say it'd be a good buy at $45-60, but definitely not the $100+ they're asking.

 

That's my position on it. You want over $100 for your bottle I need to know who made it and how old it is.

 

An interesting read on Kentucky Owl:

Good read. Thanks for posting. "They know how to market horse piss" LOL

 

Summary: If you can find bottles pre-2017, you're getting the original company's sourced small batch, but it was sourced honey barrels.

Post-2017, you're getting Stoli's production expansion, watch out.

Since the bottles have no 'bottled on' date...do YOU wanna roll the dice for ~$125?

 

Strange, the Wiseman bourbon is also by Kentucky Owl and is pretty good. havent tried the Wiseman rye yet

 

Did THIS at work today…


So after getting it yanked out and going for a tetanus shot I’m hoping this can help dull the pain a little.

 

Ouch, how’d you do that?

 

Ouch is right! I was cleaning out a bunch of grease from a bearing race I was working on. Had on double rubber gloves and as I as scooping it out with my hand that little beauty got jammed way up under my nail. Didn’t seem to hurt as bad before I pulled everything off to look at it. Than I kinda wanted to puke lol.

 

I wanted to puke just looking at it, one of my worst nightmares is having a fishhook making a new hole in me somewhere. You gotta warn people before putting something like that up!

 

You should put it in this thread.

Done. Hahaha. That thread is gross AF

 

Ya there is some real nasty ones in there. My wife is a nurse and showed me some page she follows of surgeries and it’s like open heart surgeries and bones through flesh type deal. A bit much for me.

 

Tonight’s the night.

 

Weren’t you supposed to be killing bottles?

 

Well done sir!

 

Yep.

First time they've been on the shelf in over a year here. I rounded on all 4 ABC stores in my county today and came away with these 3 bottles. One is for @Hook78 because we roll like that.

 

Honestly, really liking it. I tried an oz or so neat, might have had a bit of neck pour. Wasn’t feeling it off the bat. Second pour over the rocks was great. Smooth, sweet. Great sipper. Really liking some of these wheated bourbons lately and this is another good one to add to the list. Great rec!
