Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Well it depends what you're looking for in a bourbon I guess. I feel like most other bourbons in the same price range as those are better though.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
You have no idea. I'm getting into cigars but I drink that stuff for breakfast. It IS THE breakfast of champions. **** wheaties.
You got that right! I enjoyed the Four Roses 120 anniversary too. I still gotta pick up this years Woodford Master's Collection. I typically only drink overproof bourbons 50%+. Noah's mill is a good one as well for a bit cheaper-ISH. I've personally had somewhere around ~30-35 different kind of bourbons no samples just bottles I've bought. |

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Nice pickups, are these available here now that we get Buffalo Trace or do we still have to find them out out state?

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I got all of them out of state. The Experimentals are a private experimental from Jay Erisman at The Pary Source. I also had him ship me the Four Roses cause I couldn't find it local either.
I'm on a waiting list for a store in Illinois for the 2010 Buffalo Trace Experiments. Fingers crossed.... |

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
hmmm, may have to call and ask and see if they will be getting any. the store I'm on the waiting list for was given to me by Kris Comstock, he's the head sales/warehousing/distribution guy, and even he said "good luck, this years is even smaller in quantity than any of the past years"

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Went softly this weekend, and put a hurtin' on my bottle of Gentleman Jack.
I have to admit, it's a nice taste and I'm not against a mixer when you go to JD's lines.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Not sure how many watchers of this thread went to the Shack Herf and got a taste of that
OLD whiskey that some nice man gave to DaveK. BUT, as it was the finest spirit I ever put in me mouth, I was wondering, is there anything out there that comes anywhere CLOSE to that stuff? I know it would have to have decades in a barrel to even come close, since I think that was the allure of the mysterious bottles Dave had and SHARED (glug). But I have been hell bent to find something like that in a store so I can have a shot now and again. And to clarify, my shot took me 45 mins to drink at the shack. A little went a LONG way. It literally exploded with flavor on the palate, like a liquid pop-rock under concentrate. It was chewable. And I want to do it again. |

sub-sub forum. It's all slopes of one kind or another. But I am not sure I want to pay 150-350 a bottle for that taste. I am gonna try some of these supposed 16 year old bourbons, since I read here and there that too much barrel age is not all that good for bourbon. Lemme tell you, it sure did that label-less bottle good. We will have to see if I get all turned around or not. Certainly keep you posted, lol. As it's friday, I am gonna make a stop by Buster's on the way home and pick either a Hirsch, or a pappy or just a plain ol Woodford's and get home and relax. Already got the 4 Roses, so you'd think I could just drink that. But NOOooo. |

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Well, Justin, I am an oddball, as you know. I stock WIld Turkey, but not many love that too much.
When it comes down to grabbing a bottle of show-stopping sippin whiskey, you would have a hard time topping Woodford's Reserve. 4 Roses Single Barrel is fine. Eagle Rare is no slouch. I guess none are off the beaten path, as you characterize it. But maybe that's right about what you wanted. If not, reading most of this thread is a great activity. |
