Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Got my first bottle of the latest Booker's from Kentucky yesterday (24-02, Beam House Batch). Hoping to crack it this weekend.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
First time at a local whisky bar. Very nice selection. Definitely go back. Fun to try things I don’t have.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Some really nice pours, Dave! Curious to your thoughts on the Barrell New Year (I like it)
:D and Booker's 23-02 Apprentice Batch (my least favorite Booker's ever).:( |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I was out and around and hit a couple of my usual spots. I was looking for some EC single barrel but couldn't find any. But I came home with a Penelope Barrel Strength, Ezra Brooks Cask Strength, Rebel Cask Strength, MM Cask Strength, and Russell's 10 Year.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Nice haul James. :tu
Revisited my JDSBBP bottles (regular and rye) this afternoon while watching soccer. Man I love both of them. But that rye, wow. |

The Barrell New Year was definitely a star along with the Basil Hayden. I am becoming a big fan of Barrell. |

But those Barrell blends. Lotsa great stuff for sure. |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Siri, remind me to never offer Dave or Tom a pour of the Apprentice Batch should either end up in SEMI. Definitely remind me to hide my backup bottle. :D

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Get a bunch of Little Book 7 and 24-02 in me, I might think Apprentice is ok. ;) :lr
Opened up the Pinhook honoring Issac Murphy this weekend. Sweet and complex, I like it. https://i.imgur.com/hrOWsu5.jpg |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Picked up a couple new single barrels. First is a JD Barrel Proof at 128.1 from Grand Cathedral Liquors.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
This Little Booker Ch 7 just rings my beeeelllllel. Ring my bell.
Already drank one bottle and spares are hard to find. https://i.postimg.cc/Vv2TxcfB/IMG-0215.jpg |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Dave, that Chapter 7 sounds interesting in that it has all 6 previous releases in the mix. I'll have to see if my store in Marengo has an open bottle.
Recent pickups at retail or less were Barrell 2021 New Year's and a Weller Full Proof. https://i.imgur.com/w6kXKN6.jpg |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I found a bottle of Widow Jane 10 for a reasonable price, finally. The queue's grown, so it may be a bit before I open it. 99 problems but a whisky queue ain't one. :D

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I’ve slowed my buying. Working on killing some bottles before I start restocking. Finished a Barrel Foundation yesterday. It’s decent, but not sure I’ll buy again anytime soon.
|
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Hooo eeeee a Weller Full Proof. Great bourbon and Barrell, well, I have become a fan.
Widow Jane is on my try list. Going to a Whisky Lounge next week and hope to try that along with more Barrell. |
