Any good? I grabbed a bottle when it was on sale at the local. I've had their finished Rye and its definitely interesting and different but not a huge fan. Definitely not for the $$$.

Yes, good but depending on how much you paid, you may be able to get just as good for less. I'm on my last shot or so but I'm still in my "exploration" stage so will be looking to try something else.

I'm pretty new to sippin' whiskey (always been a Guinness guy) but I like Buffalo Trace.

So it seems Weller 12 hit Chicago about a week+ ago, I've been out of town.
Made the rounds again late Friday......found tons of uniques bourbons and tripped over the last bottle of 12 at a place I rarely visit.
No ETL anywhere and PVW folks just laugh.

Weller has been fun to sample, great value for sure.

I haven't seen any W12 at the places I've been, but I'm 70 miles West of city proper and don't travel East far very much. So the search continues...



Tonight anyway is 4 Roses SB- neat.

Picked up a Russell's Reserve Rye single barrel and two different four roses barrel proof recipes than I've had previously (working on all 8 slowly). But I drank cheap stuff. Killed my bottle of bulleit (won't replace unless its dirt cheap) and working on a woodford reserve to make room for more ****...

The Russell's isn't bad. If you are a coffee and liquor drinker save the Bulleit for that. Nose opens up really well in the hot coffee and goes well with a breakfast smoke.🌫

Oh yeah, Elijah Craig BP last night.

By all stretches of the imagination, I should like Bulleit. High rye, check. >=90 proof, check. good price, check. Has always tasted like **** to me.

Yup, and just like with cigars its a matter of palate and individual taste. I lucked into a bottle of Jefferson's Ocean Aged and while most of the reviews have been glowing and the nose is decent, for my garden variety palate it's just OK, not great, just OK. Drink and smoke what works for you.

What a fluke.

Went to our pizza joint next our neighborhood, their pizza oven is broken.

Drive a couple miles away to Giodornos, place is packed with an hour wait so I ordered s pie to go. 30 minutes.

Wife drives me to a liqueur store that I've never been to with my intentions to get a six pack of beer. Grabbed a six back of beer and perused the bourbons on my way to the cashier. There's a stack of unopened cases of booze on my route, I ask the guy if he's got anything good that just arrived. Says no everything he has is out, I complimented on his selections and asked where he hides the good stuff as I walk towards the counter-he reaches down while saying you know how this games played and pulls up an ETL!

Me? I don't ask the price but asked for another, we had a good laugh over that

Beer night tonight but tomorrow?

Elmer and i will be getting acquainted.

Very nice indeed. I've had two on ice (large ice balls) and they have been very enjoyable.
