    I trust TJ. He name drops people like crazy, but everything he told me so far has been true and I see what he drinks and likes and I agree with him.

    I have a feeling my bourbon consumption is about to slow way down. I just don't enjoy whiskey as much in the warmer months.

    Hopefully my whiskey buying also slows down.

    I've had it at least twice that I know of and probably a third time but i didn't bother taking a test that time.

    Right but it just doesn't make sense. Don't. Like. Bourbon. As. Much???? That's like dividing by zero.

    Think he’s saying he’d rather drink a shandy, or Mike’s Hard Lemonade.

    Oh lol. I don't know. I just don't drink at all as much when it's hot. Especially not neat. Maybe a good cocktail.

    I really want to try one of the exceptional series, but the word malt just turns me off.

    I’ve seen them at 180-210 this week. There’s some upcoming TKO drops that will be run here soon. I’ll tag you when I see them.

    You should give it a try. I was exactly the same way and then I revisited malts in February and found that I have acquired a taste for them, especially the chocolate malt bombs. Also they started releasing Exceptional Series Bourbons too. I am not convinced they are any better than the single barrel series yet though. Just got one today so we will see.

    which one was that? I am still trying to figure out what I want to buy outside of the Seelbach's I just received and the Uproxx I ordered. I may get the one you posted or batch 7, and Rare Character is also coming out with a run in those same Kelvin barrels too.

    Wonder if this is replacing 13 this year or if they will drop that too. Also afraid to even ask what retail is on this knowing Turkeys prices lately.

    That's actually not as bad as I was expecting after the pricing on the single Rickhouse and Generations. Still pretty pricy.

    I got pretty lucky with RR13 last year. But my store hasn't been getting dick lately for whatever reason so I'm probably not getting lucky this year.

    weird to me that the list came out awhile ago and you can still buy it.

    Probably a pretty large batch since it's a blend. Plus I don't think many care about Fred Minnicks opinion.

    Also, I noticed that Nashtucky on Seelbachs sold out really fast. Guess maybe just NBC hype?

    I just opened mine. I was told it likely won't be very good, but I actually think it's great.

    Oh did not realize. I thought NBC only did barrels, so I completely ignored the "small batch" part.

    Apparently the RR15 that are out there are stolen and you should avoid at all costs. Campari has not released or shipped any yet.

    Keef and I Grabbed one of these each. There were only 120 bottles, but I suspect more like 50 available to the public. This is a Frank Dobbins "BourbYourEnthusiasm" special 1 time pick.
