New Bourbon Thread: Bourbon Trail

Fine. Go ahead. Ruin it.

 

NYGator this package landed. Safe spot on the bar cart. undrtow

 

Thank you for your service

 

I think that is the appropriate ranking for our 2nd barrel pick, not quite GTS but better than Stagg Jr

 

That was clearly just a humble brag opportunity to show off GTS. I'll allow it.

 

GET IN!!! Thanks NYGator

 

It's in my possession and it's beautiful

 

Also, happy Derby Weekend!

 

I’m still working, so I’d like some #finishedfriday pics so I can live vicariously

 

Inspired me

 

No homer for AL, but I recently purchased a Dettling 62 mo bourbon pick. This stuff is really good, was skeptical at first

Not cheap at ABC $79 pricetag, but if anybody wants, let me know

 

Anyone want to vouch for Nulu toasted barrel at $80?

4-6yr MGP

 

Nooga folks love it, especially their recent pick. Never had it, whats the proof?

 

I’ll look, it’s been sitting at TW for a week.

 

It’s delicious

 

How does this stuff stack up again the single barrel offerings?

 

I like it, but it’s a stretch at $56 (what my TW sells it for) let alone $62.

 

undrtow approved a holding tax. NYGator and other tasters great job.

 

Mine arrived today too. I’m not in town but I can’t wait to try it in a few days.

Thanks NYGator and please thank your assistant from all of us too.

 

Graduated with my MBA today

The rye curious was a hell of a part of dinner

thanks NYGator

 

assistant?

 

I was referring to whomever’s name was on your shipping account. Alternate identity? If you did it all yourself, even crazier. What a Herculean task. Thanks for doing all that work for us.

 

*employee

 

He did it all himself. He just didn’t want you lot to know his name.

 

Fair. Although how else can we thank him by sending him unlimited tuscani pasta?

 

Slide into those dms babe

 

Coincidentally his name actually is Ryan Curious

 

I did it myself. That is just my office address. I work from home 99.9% of the time though.

 

I was picturing a scene where you packaged everything up and then showed up to work and asked your assistant to drop off 75 “packages” at FedEx and UPS over the course of a week. Gave me a chuckle.

 

I wish. I mean I could do that if I wanted to, but it would just feel wrong even though I did send out about 10 packages to coworkers.

 

The best part for me was… well getting one of the bottles.

The SECOND best part was getting a good mailer with sturdy cardboard so I can successfully mail Ryan Curious a bottle in the future.

 

Used the same mailers as PAs FWGS. Crosses fingers, but so far haven’t heard of any issues.

 

I did a quick sample of most of the barrels we have to try, and I think the rye is going to be the favorite again. Full proof rye at 116-119 proof.

 

Are you able to ship to Canada or it’s too much trouble?

 

I have no idea with customs.

 

ok, It would’ve been nice but it is probably too complicated.

 

I think the Stellum rye regular bottle is better than the bourbon and it’s a few % higher proof wise

 

I could go for a stellum rye pick

 

Yes, that is one of the current barrels we are picking.

 

BrickTamland that M10R

 

I’m preparing for a move, and at the same time shifting money from brown juice into my next Rolex purchase. Time to thin the heard.

 

That said, if you’re interested in anything at all that I posted, especially the post with all the Benash picks, I’ll take care of you.

 

All good man. Just saw you post some stuff on fb and that caught my eye. Guy who Bin’ed it is a good dude as well.

You moving OOS?

 

It is likely that I’m moving one state down.

 

Which means, Q2 Athens Downtown Brown Juice Throwdown at Casa Keef has to happen… in Q2.
