My bride and I went to the liquor store last night and came away with a bottle of that on recommendation
( never tried, so looking forward to it ) and somehow a bottle of Four Roses Single Barrel ended up in the bag as well.
This liquor store had 7-8 different barrel proof bottles from Four Roses that were done exclusively for them with proofing and a description of " notes " characteristic to that particular barrel. But they also go for $56 a pop. Picked up the Single barrel for $36...

Wild Turkey puts out exceptional bourbons at a price point well below the market. God Bless Jimmy Russell.

Had a couple interesting ones over the weekend. My buddy and I found a couple older bottles of scotch hidden in a cupboard. They said that they were opened 12 years ago for tasting and looked a bit older than that.

Don't know anything about either if someone wants to fill me in.

JW Dants Blended Scotch Whisky - This was the better of the two. Pretty strong. Nothing special about it, but enjoyed it.

Rare Justerini & Brooks - This one was very light tasting, not bad by all means, but not a whole lot to it.

Me too last night Dan...we really enjoy the Four Roses S Batch and S Barrel



On a separate note I just received e-mail notice that we have an opportunity to attend a bourbon tasting and seminar hosted by Big Red liquors for their VIP's where we'll meet Bernie Lubbers ( Brand Ambassador for Heaven Hill ) and will sample many of their offerings and have an ice cubes chance in hell of winning an opportunity to purchase a bottle of E.Craig 18 yr.bourbon while learning a bit about distilling the nectar. I hope my bride can get the night off!!!!

Updated: Looks like we're going!!!
What a great way to celebrate my turning 57 the following dayBeer

If you get a chance on the EC 18, I recommend you jump on it if the price is not out of bounds.

Also, sample the Larceny if given a chance. IMHO it is a really good bottle for the mid 20's.

Would love to but I have a feeling it will be cost prohibitive for us....Aren't we talking somewhere in or around $400?
Thanks for the recommendation on the Larceny Dan, we'll give it a try Fo Sho!!!
____________________________________________________________________________________________

Here's what we'll be sampling tomorrow night,

Meet Bernie Lubbers, Brand Ambassador and Bourbon Professor for Heaven Hill distillery!
Enjoy what the Whiskey Professor has to say about this ever-popular spirit. During the evening we’ll sample: Larceny, Evan Williams Single Barrel, Pikesville Rye, Rittenhouse Rye, Evan Williams Black Label, and Elijah Craig.

Bonus for attendees: We’re raffling for the right to purchase 2 bottles of Elijah Craig 18yr!

Learn more about the Whiskey Professor, Bernie Lubbers: http://www.whiskeyprof.com/

Well we didn't get drawn but that's okay we still had a great time!! One of the two people who did get drawn, declined the purchase of the EJ 18 yr. and one of the attendees behind them snagged it for $129 IIRC. We tried a few whiskies we hadn't had from the HH distillery and came home with several since they did a " one day special " for those attending. Picked up a few E.Craig @ $22 per.
Brought home a bottle of Bernheim Rye / Evan Williams Reserve / (3) Elijah Craig and couldn't pass up a bottle of Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style bourbon ( BIL brought a bottle to Nic. and it was pretty darn good )
