New Bourbon Thread: Bourbon Trail

MSRP? Probably at least 300

 

what is secondary?

 

don't know, sorry

 

I asked my buddy that's big into willet. I'll let you know if he messages me back.

 

He said max $800 for secondary.

 

thanks, saw a store posting one from a barrel pick for $1,500.

seems high but I have no idea

 

He said it does kind of depend on who picked it but that seems high based on what he said.

 

After doing a little recon on it, that's probably a tad bit over secondary. I just saw a 9 year for $1200.

 

Lanells?

 

Yeah, they are always pricey but I like that store

 

That’s too much, even if it is a short barrel

 

Yeah, I passed

 

9 years are around 550-600 around here secondary

 

I went to Kroger today to get some Jim Beam to mix with my Pepsi and I saw a Calumut 16 for 150. Never saw it before so I bought it. No idea on it or didn’t even research. Hope it’s good.

 

Insert Kevin James meme

 

I don’t know what that means. I used to pay attention to bourbons and this thread so I was genuinely looking for any feedback. I normally sip on Woodford and mix Jim beam and drink Belle’s two hearted.

Last year a co workers husband got me a Weller 12 and an Elmer T Lee both were very good.

 

It’s okay. Certainly not in the ball park of w12 or etl

 

b7 idk you fren but I like you. You’re welcome round here.

 

I’m drinking WSR right now so I’m not throwing any stones

 

I’m drinking Stellum.

I bought it with my CSR.

Look out Boofalo Trace VIP experience, here I come!!

 

I need a co workers husband apparently.

 

You need marriot points for that. Wrong card.

 

Chase Ultimate Rewards transfer at 150%.

 

Seems like a waste of chase points

Was in Bocas Town in Bocas del Toro, Panama last week (humble brag) and stopped by a random mini Mart next to where I was staying to pick up some local hot sauce. Saw this sitting on the shelf and just laughed because this is in the middle of nowhere on an island. Price was $43 USD.

 

I probably won't see this anyway but sounds like it's a pass. Especially at $450.

 

Is there a Very Old Barton that is allocated? My store said they got a couple of bottles but the bottles were in the back so I didn't see them. I thought Very Old Barton was a cheap whiskey so it kind of confused me.

 

Their bottled in bond is not available everywhere. Believe it has always been a Kentucky exclusive release. I could be wrong.

Paging resident VOB fan boy Love Tractor

 

VOB is top notch

 

Thanks to Aussie for coming through.

 

Spillway is releasing their purple top 10 year on Saturday for 499.95 for anybody interested

 

I would love one, but no where near Brandon, MS.

 

Very excited to get this one. Only had a 2 oz pour of batch 1 and that was incredible

 

They say this is bourbon of the year

 

I’ll take a sample

 

Give me something good in return and I’ll send you some

 

I love my batch 1, looks like motor oil in the glass. So good

 

That's what I was just looking at. That color is dark.

 

Turned the big 40 today so having a few drinks to celebrate. Drinking the JD 12 for the first time since I opened and damn that is a good pour.

 

Happy Birthday!

 

Happy Birthday! My 40th is 2 weeks from today.

 

Many thanks and my condolences.

 

Nashville peeps. Frugal macdoogal releasing old Forrester barrel proof pick at 2 pm today.

 

Apparently there was a big drop of various BT bourbons at a Kroger nearby today, this was the line at like 8am someone posted on Facebook

Spoiler

 

That’s retarded

 

Apparently there was a shit load. People 200ish in line saying they got W12. Who knows if that's true, either way no chance in hell I'm standing in lines like that or any line at all really.

 

That's insane. Wonder what they had. Unless it was BTAC or something those people are dumb.

 

I don't' know any of these people so I'm just pasting from FB with names.
