Great grab, Johnny!

Ben, not certain I'll open it, I may trade it. Don't expect any real secondary value, maybe $220-225 at best in trade value,

Stopped by my local store. The owner left his sample bottle of the 1792 FP SP out. They’re not releasing until Black Friday. Guess who got a sample? Delicious.

Snagged a bottle of Bookers Apprentice Batch. I know it’s not widely liked, but figured I’d grab one to see for myself. First sip, I really like it. They have six left. Hmm…

Walked into the store by my gym and they had the Hardin's Creek Series at retail. All 3 in the trilogy in 200ml bottles. Now I can keep my 750s intact for the time being.

That’s pretty cool Tom.

Thanks Bob....it inspired me to have a pour of my open Clermont.

Bookers Mighty Fine batch (23-03) landed here less than three weeks ago, imagine my happy surprise when I found Storyteller's batch (23-04) in the store today.

Chainsaw13 · 11-19-2023, 03:42 PM

Score!

Cracked open my EC BP C923. Phenomenal.

Stopped by the local store. Owner says he’s got a few cool things on the shelf. Found this.

Ben stopped by to enjoy some winter sunshine Saturday. Pours, cigars, bs, etc. eclipsed by the company.

Chainsaw13 · 11-21-2023, 05:15 PM

Sitting in a local cigar bar with my friend, sipping a Bookers Kentucky Tea. Omg this is amazing.

I like that one a lot, Bob.

I thought you mentioned this one before. The nose was nothing like what I was expecting. The taste was even better.

icehog3 · 11-21-2023, 05:45 PM

That and Charlie's are probably my 2 favorites from the last 3+ years.

Chainsaw13 · 11-22-2023, 12:50 PM

Cracked open the JD Rye I picked up yesterday. If the neck pour is this good, can’t wait to see how the bottle progresses.

Glad it's a good one, Bob!

Hit up my local store for BF. Snagged a bottle of their 1792 FP SP. they also had all the BCBS variants up front. Stupid prices. No thanks.

I've loved most of the 1792 FP picks I've tried, Bob. Looking forward to hearing how this one is.
