    good deal, they had 4 or 5 of them the other day so I’ll probably pick one up today since I’ve gotta run some errands over by there

    It's expensive but so is everything nowadays. CoK is just a good solid bourbon.

    Yeah it annoyed me to see the MSRP on Bulleit Single Barrel set at 60. That has to be one of the biggest deltas between the small batch and single barrel versions. Everything worth a shit seems to be going up in price.

    yeah, that increase in price is what had me leery of buying a Bulleit SiB - have you opened yours?

    I have not yet, I'll try to remember to post when I do. I love small batch, but partially because it's so cheap.

    $500. The guy who had told me he had a bottle for me two months ago and didn't, actually called me.

    So this is the first time I have ever tasted WLW before. Pretty blown away by the flavor, but the nose might be the best thing ever. I literally want to strap a glass to my head with my nose in it.

    Edit: Yes, I think this may be the best bourbon I ever had. It's definitely top 3.

    Not sure about M10, but I want to say around $175.

    Stagg is fairly common on the secondary at ~$300 (MSRP on all BTAC is $99)

    Don’t know about WFE Bourbon.

    RHF seems to be demanding a higher price on the secondary lately, ~$135-150 (MSRP is something like $60?)

    Depends on what you think is reasonable
    M10- 119-149; secondary is 190-200
    RHF- MSRP is 50; secondary is 150
    Willett 6 - really varies. Secondary is 250-300
    GTS: MSRP is 99 but secondary is solidly 400+ (not 300, sorry BrickTamland)

    I ask because obviously those are some id be interested in, but ive seen the below prices
    M10 - 280-479
    RHF - 199
    Willett 6 - 299
    GTS - 750-899

    And I was like these seem expensive but maybe im just that naive

    You can get every one of those on secondary for less than those prices. That’s absurd.

    One place here it’s on bottom shelf, the other that has it doesn’t even take it out of the shipping boxes. Fantastic for the price. Good sipper and mixer. I drink it neat but it makes a good old fashion too bc I don’t like them too sweet.

    i just couldn’t figure what 3/5 of incredible is. Average? Above average? I like above average. I want to be above average, but too much above average because that is just showing off.
