That looks fantastic! :dr

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

That's some good stuff. I think I'm going to get a 1.75 of either Woodford or Eagle Rare to take on vacation for my step-dad and I for the week.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

I've been working on a bottle of Eagle Rare 10 for about two weeks and I've been loving it...

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

I need to decide what to take to FL next week. I have some Woodford Reserve, Ridgemont 1792, and Four Roses Small Batch. What do you think I should take?

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

LOL, I was about to pose a similar question. To answer yours first, I'd say the Four Roses. Now onto mine.

I'm going on vacation next week and need to buy a 1.75 of bourbon. Should I do Woodford, Eagle Rare, or Knob Creek?

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

would my choice of the three

I would say Eagle Rare or Woodford...I do not like Knob Creek too much :2

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

Between the 3 choices, I'd say Woodford.
Good to the last drop.:)

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

Then again, my local Costco carries Makers Mark 1.75 liter bottles at $34.99, so I always go for them.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

Hmmm, they sell any of the ones I listed?

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

Mine doesn't.
Can't speak for all of them, though, as different locations
seem to carry different items.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

I've seen Knob Creek at Costco before. Can't remember the price though.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

I need to revisit woodford reserve, last time I had it :pu

I had a nice little treat today. While out visiting shops I stopped by one of my accounts and I forgotten I had left a bottle of Buffalo Trace in my Stepdad's locker. Hadn't had it in a while so I took a few minutes and had a glass while smoking with the owner. It was a slow sales day so it brightened my afternoon. I wish Buffalo Trace was available in GA, but it gives me a reason to visit SC (not that hanging with the PSHC wasn't enough :D)

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

All that great bourbon you have and you're choosing between those 3 :r

My choice would be the ER. :tu

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

hate to make you old lushes feel too good about yourselves, but out of all the specialty threads at CA, this is by far the most useful. I discovered Woodford Reserve one day when I was hung over from Wild Turkey. I took a chance and I guess I got lucky. A man with money in hand and not much knowledge could make a mistake with all the stuff out there. The top shelf doesn't get too much of a threat from me, but I do like to splurge now and again. These reccos will come in very handy if I ever see another dollar.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 

As usual, Floyd "distilled" the whole point down. What a whiskey drinker buys rarely has anything to do with marketing or trends, it's what you are comfortable with and can enjoy at a price that makes you feel alright. Not that trying everything is bad. I just rarely seem to find the time in between bottles of Turkey. I know I have said that already, but It's what gets poured at my house. What I will try after reading this thread is Basil Hayden's and that bonded rye. Next year I might try something else new, lol.

PVW 12 and 20. No need to go any further.
