Will find out some time this week if I was lucky enough to be able to purchase any of these... chances are pretty much slim to none but at least my hat is in the ring.

I know, right?!?! I also thought that that was pretty funny. I guess that's what happens when a lawyer reviews copy.

Well good luck anyway. That's a pretty awesome list of some of the best of the best. The things I'd do for a THH Rye. Any of those, really.

I read somewhere that last year there were 30 bottles of the PVW 23... and 63,000 entries. I'm not holding my breath.

Hopefully a Stagg Jr. is realistic.

That’s worse than our VA lottery for second-rate VW.

lol it’s the top ten list of 2022 from the couple that shows their bourbon shopping trips but never how they got any of these

Anyone do subscription boxes? My wife got me this one from a local company called Blind Barrels it’s actually pretty cool. The samples are labeled A,B,C and D, it comes with a taste profile chart and you sample them and try to figure out what they are. Once done you scan the QR code to reveal the samples info. We did this over the weekend and it was actually quite good, the wife is actually starting to like whiskeys more and more now!

So, how do we know the bottles are good and not skunked because of mishandling? Not that I’m bidding on anything….

Opened and tasted my first bottle of Pikesville Rye 110proof tonight. For the price (about $40)...GREAT stuff. Both neat and on the rocks.

The Bourbon Junkies have a discount code for this, but I can't remember it. Its in one of their more recent videos.

Auctions like this totally cure my FOMO when I realize that all I need to get these whiskeys is money.

Bourbon is for babies. Stick with the scotch

I heard about it from the morning radio show we listen to, turns out the one of the main hosts is a co-owner, the promo code they have is FRANKSBOX. That gets you the March box free when you sign up. Here's a link to their website

Getting low on this but I can’t help myself

Big pour and I'm gonna miss it...

Pour #2 since day 2 of our downstairs renovation project went better than expected!

The nose on this is ridiculous

C918 is probably the best batch I’ve ever had…maybe C919. Both are a HOF ECBP batch!

And it’s purely coincidence that I’m a lefty

So half of my experiences with these bottles are cola with brown sugar and hints of banana. One of the first pours I can remember with the cola flavor.

Recently, I've had pours from these bottles be berry bombs.

Both are incredible, but the berry variety takes it. Insanely great.

Anyone else have a similar experience?

C921 down!

Received some hot sauce from @FDLmold this afternoon!

Looking forward to comparing these two batches (2&3) with batch 4 that I already have and really like so far!
