Man down! Salud

Elijah Craig was my first glass of bourbon ever. I still love it and buy it occasionally!


Yeah, first taste of BT and I thought for a moment I might have over-diluted before I remembered I was sipping neat. And it was even thinner in an old fashioned. Guy at liquor store said they had a line starting at 5am (!!!) for a new BT shipment and they were down to their last 2 cases when I walked in. I was expecting my socks to be blown off given the hype.

WT 101 and Rittenhouse will remain my respective well bourbon and rye for now. Good neat. Good on the rocks. Hold up well in cocktails. Won't break the bank.

It's just a scarcity thing that they (BT) create themselves. I always have a bottle on the shelf and a backup cuz the wife likes it. No need to tell her that everything else I have is better as long as she's happy. It's a $25 bottle and 90 proof. Not sure why you would have expected to have your socks blown off. It's good, basic bourbon from one of the best distilleries in the country. Nothing more.

Weller SR > WT 101 > BT basic

but I would drink all three

Let’s crack and revisit A123! I remember liking this one very much the first time around

Found me a backup of this, so I’m gonna have a celebratory pour for my man JJ qualifying for Daytona!

59.4% is solid too!

Wish they would keep handwriting the info, a nicer touch it gave to the bottle.

Serious question - I never really looked at them closely but always assumed the ‘handwritten’ labels were just handwriting-looking font printed with the rest of the label for the ‘look’. Are they really hand written?

Edited to add: not this particular bottle but any bourbon bottle with the numbers ‘hand written’

On most bottles I'd venture to say it's just a handwritten font, but these in particular sure looked to be penned in by hand.

Remind me in June and we can pop this open.

Fryeday!

 

[99%evil]

I keep coming back to this one. I can’t get Weller around here, but every version of Old Elk is available locally… so this is my fill in

 

[Copper44]

some newbies to try.

Happy Fryeday!

I’ll join you! I can assure you it only gets better after being opened up for a good 3-4 months. Celebrating my sister in law’s 50th birthday today, so I’m sharing a pour with my father in law tonight!

Love the BP whiskey bottle…it has disappeared in Atlanta though! The Rye is a great alternative though. Enjoy the pour.

 

[KidFromCleveland]

Bought in for $20 in a micro stakes game. Cashed out for $76. Enjoying an OGD 114 and Fuente Casa Cuba to celebrate.

I see that Barrel in the background. Haven’t pulled the trigger on one of those yet. Pour worth the cost?

Yes and I think no one here will disagree
