Just received my bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 20 year old, I won the right to purchase ($249.99) through a state lottery. Although I've received several, very generous, offers to buy it from me ($1800.00 is the highest), I think I'll save it for a special occasion.


........I doubt it will make it through the New Year (special enough for me).

http://www.finewineandgoodspirits.com . I just found out about it, when I was trying to locate a bottle of E.H. Taylor Four Grain (which will be sold through this lottery at a future date). Once on the site......go to the "Events" tab, then to the "Limited Release Lottery" tab.

You must be a PA resident and you have to have a credit card on file. Also, sign up for their email list (so you are alerted to the next lottery, I only found out about it by mistake). I know I beat the odds (78,000 entries and 1600 bottles available), especially for being my first lottery but it's worth a shot.

Good Hunting!

Congrats! I got one a couple years ago. Haven't decided when to open yet. WEdding coming up soon may be the occasion but i don't want to smash the bottle in a day (or in a number of minutes) so I'm thinking bachelor party may not be the right occasion.

Edit: oh ya the purpose of this thread...

Makers 46 and Wathens!

Trying to drink down some opens and... open more!

Basil Hayden's Dark Rye 2017 Release

gifted to me, KY straight rye whiskey blended with Canadian rye whisky and Port
interesting, different. it's like both the sweetness of the port and the spice of the rye have both been somewhat tamed yet still appear.

kind of a nice sipper, should go well with some cubans and maduros.

I scored a bottle of the ETL anniversary black label tonight. It’s about half gone now. Good but I can’t tell much difference from regular.

interesting for sure. but may not appeal to every bourbon or rye drinker.
That said, I liked it as a change of pace.

We have a couple different bourbons / whiskies unopened that have been " finished " in either rum / sherry / port or even one from freshly dumped Imperial Stout beer barrels. The Big Red VIP bourbon 2.0 version @ 114 P we did taste before purchasing...was quite tasty.

Edit:

Had yet another opportunity to snag another bottle of Blantons through Big Red VIP program via their Big Red Liquors APP.
Also snagged a bottle of Four Roses Barrel Proof OBSV 10yr 10 month ageing weighing in @ 125 proof.

Thanks, Paul. My life, since we met at age 15 (well, she was 16), has been unquantifiable better than I deserve. Hope y’all have a very merry Christmas and happy New Year.
