They’re basically trading at the equivalent of a RHF or ETL. So although these are spoken for, I’m going to try and grab one or two more tomorrow for trades.
Opened up the Dovetail, really hot to start but the back end is really flavorful. I know batch 3 isn’t everyone’s favorite, but I’m really enjoying it. Getting a butterscotch type flavor
Drunk just bought a random bottle of Caribou Crossing online because it looks cool Not where I bought it but good selection: https://thirdbasemarketandspirits.com/ Ultra rares are marked up but some finds on here
So I picked up a bottle of the 2019 Stagg and a bottle of the McKenna 10 yr BIB. That McKenna is delicious
I couldn’t resist trying one of the samples tonight. As far as my uneducated palate goes, and considering this is 120 proof, I find it extremely delicious and has no burn. There are a lot of flavors that I probably won’t be able to describe, but I love it. I have read a lot of guys here describing chocolate and caramel flavors and I was kind of skeptical on how a bourbon could have those flavors but I’m picking them up here.
Local restaurant chain buys up all the allocations they can and then turns around and doesn’t up charge much when they sell it. They have a couple different locations they sell it at.
Anyone know where I can find a bottle of the Woodford Reserve CHERRY WOOD SMOKED BARLEY? Had some last year and have been unable to track another bottle down.

I’m probably just going to end up buying another from the PA site when I empty this one, I need a chapter 3 which I’ll probably pull the trigger on first since WillieHuff wont stop talking about it
Apple and caramel. One of my favorites. pperc15 doesnt like it. I get it though because it is so different.
dumb question, but how can you tell which batch of Dovetail a certain bottle is from? I looked at a couple of bottles the other night & didn’t see anything on them
The proof corresponds to a specific batch number Bottled at cask strength 1st bottling is 122.9 proof 2nd bottling is 123.8 proof 3rd bottling is 124.34 proof 4th bottling is 125.24 proof 5th bottling Is 122.9 proof
Prices may vary, see dealer for details, offer not valid in all states, objects in mirror may be closer than they appear. Secondary market will always be regional. Some of you can trade Buffalo Trace, while the rest of us get it anywhere we shop for $23.
No problem, I recently figured it out as well. Thanks Google. I was in a store the other stay looking at a bottle of Stagg Jr. and kept rotating and turning it trying to figure out the batch number like a dumbass. Finally just googled it and all easy from there.
Speaking of sweet pours, I snagged a Basil Hayden Dark Rye the other day. While it is not overly complex, I'm really digging the fruit forward flavor profile. It is sweet AF though.
I have not been a fan of that, but I haven't tried it in about 6 months, so maybe I'll give it another try.
CoastalOrange i have your BM Sherry. I’m trying it tonight and it’s good, if you haven’t tried the Madeira yet I highly suggest it. I’d rank them as follows but I think it’s because I enjoy cognac quite a bit: XO,Madeira Sherry
anecdotal, obviously, but it didnt even last a day at one of my locals now i dont know the allotment they had, and perhaps releasing it the same day as bakers 13 brought in more potential buyers than would normally be expected, but thats how it ended up shaking out missed on it and the bakers, but i still walked out with a hibiki japanese harmony and a bookers kentucky chew, so my toes are still tappin
Out at a bar with typical bourbons, makers, bulleit etc. and see a 2018 OF Birthday Bourbon sitting collecting dust on a top shelf. Got a pour and it was the rest of the bottle so bartender just charged me $11 for a pour nice treat
My store got their barrel of Buffalo Trace in. Walked out with a handle and two fifths since that pick disappears in a week or two usually.
I haven a whole bunch of bottles to share but lots of other people bring things they’ve collected that are interesting and then we all come to a consensus on the next one and talk about it
