You can't renew you pla***** membership unless you've sent him a bottle of ETL.

Walking the fine line huh?

But, since I got my very first bottle of ETL through you, I know you got renewed. 😁

Last night while herfing out in the garage with a couple of hs classmates:

Four Roses Single Barrel
Sazerac
Hudson Baby Bourbon
ETL

What did you think on the Hudson? The price has always scared me away (without rave reviews to back it up) and I keep missing it when its available at tastings.

Elijah Craig 12 Private Barrel from Poplar Spirits in Casper, WYO

The question is, was it worth the premium price? Compared to their other "regular" single barrel offerings, the price for a 12 yr falls in line. I would definitely like to get my hands on one of these EC barrel picks some day!


OGD bonded.

Good stuff. You tried OGD114 before? What about old old early 90s late 80s OGD (or before)?


Lately I've had:
Stagg Jr. latest batch
Willett Pot Still Reserve (the old single barrel not the new small batch. Need to find a small batch to compare)
Bernheim Wheat age stated
The Balvenie 21 yr

I missed a bottle of Harrison Presidential Reserve 16 YR last Saturday. I'm very upset by that...

Springbank 15.
If you like Highland Park, Springbank is also the shizz.

I've now seen mentions of Harrison's Presidential Reserve at the 3 large liquor stores in my area but missed the bottle at each. If anyone sees this around ~$100 I encourage you to give it a try if that's in your budget. I found one yesterday waiting for me this weekend!

May not say Grouseland Cache anymore.

I know the brand name has been recently rereleased, but the 15 year is a newer product.
What did you think?

I've had an unopened "nip" (1/10 pint) in my bar of their 86 proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon for at least 35 years!

Nose is above average, initial taste is really nice and then it flat lines. Nothing on the backend like Basil Hayden. I would rate it a 3.0 or 3.25 at the very best on a scale of 1 - 5. Probably will not be purchasing another bottle.

Hope this helps.

left out that this is the "classic edition"

this is one kick-arse sipper yet it's only 53% abv. These Balcones folks do not kid around.
liking it neat.
next time I'll see if a drop or two opens it up more.
