I'm jealous. Love KC. Love ryes. Love high proofs.

I’m just glad I broke my rule of never buying a second bottle of anything before trying the first one. I knew I’d never see a bottle of this again, so I said F it lol

I've broken that rule once or twice. It's a good rule.

Today's purchase for me is that OLD GRAND DAD 114 IS IN THE HOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE! $27 or so. Almost bought the last 2015 Maker's Mark Cask Strength 375mL off the shelf, but will still give others a shot at it.

Being a barely legal rye that sat in a barrel for about 9 years, it could easily be mistaken for a high rye bourbon at first. It drinks way lower than its proof and it’s spicy finish let’s you know it’s a serious rye!

Absolutely fantastic!!! View attachment 736736

This is one of my favorite ryes. If you ever see one bottled barreled in 2009, grab it! They're even better.

My first ETL and a backup Larceny BP!

Having this at the bar. It’s a good wheater.

Ordered the bottle? That's pretty gangster son!

Nah. I got a generous pour to finish a bottle. That’s the new one.

It’s nice having a neighborhood bar where everyone knows your name, and gives you hugs. They’ve been closed for over a year!

edit: bottled or barreled?

Went to get the bottle that everyone is talking about. Store only had the 2009 in stock. Said they had like 30 cases at one point but down to the last case. Handed back the Weller 107 and grabbed two of those instead.

Funny my rule is to not open a bottle until I have three.

My bad, meant barrelled (the year shown on the label)

These guys?

So…I let the bartender at my neighborhood bar know that I’ve become something of a bourbon snob. He is as well. He told me to pick a favorite bottle and they will keep it just for me, under the bar. They do it for a bunch of regulars.

The question now is, what do I want them to keep for me?

 

[Big Jilm]

Lol, I told mine. PAPPY!!!

 

[Saoliver]

Lol, I told mine. PAPPY!!!

I can’t afford $50/shot. I was thinking of asking them to carry Knob Creek on the bar (they really should already have it) and Booker’s under the bar for me. Or maybe OWA107.

 

[Schmendr1ck]

Good bye, old friend.

 

[Irish]

There are some really nice distilleries in seattle, do they stock local bottles like Westland? Not bourbon, but they have a really nice american single malt.

Is this like 'you bring them a bottle to keep and pay some kind of 'per pour' fee?'

Or... Huber Starlight BiB Carl T. Bourbon.

Ooof, thats rough. Bourbon bottles go with glass shelves almost as well as poker chips cases......

They have Woodinville, which is a good local.

I wouldn’t bring my own bottle. But they would source it, and keep it stocked just for me.

Any one have a bottle of Barrel Seagrass? I had a sample and love it. I’m looking for 2-3 bottles

Glass shelving (unless very thick, purpose-rated, and well-supported), for anything other than trinkets, is a recipe for disaster.

 

[BruceWayne]

I don't care if the word gets out, that 100 proof Cooper's Craft is one of the best sub $30 bottles out there.

I have a bottle of dovetail and I hated it.

I may try it again at some point, but unless it does a total 180 I've got no place for it.

same. I hated the dovetail so I didn’t even open my infinite bottle. But I got a sample of the seagrass and it’s really really good. So much tropical fruit. Buy it if you see it. If you don’t like it I’ll take it off your hands
