Favorite bourbon/ whiskey...

There’s a few stores here that do that. They call them Easter eggs.

 

Boss to workers: 'You can't buy any of the good stuff. You have to leave it for customers'
workers: 'What if it just sits on the shelf for two weeks and nobody's buying it?'
Boss: 'Well, I guess...'

 

Went to replace my WT and came upon a few ponies, couldn't say no to 80 bucks.

 

For $80 - Meh. Plus, it was a hangover, even on one glass...

 

I did some trading to get these four Old Forester bottles today.

 

Starting the patriotic spirit early, truth be told I have it everyday.

 

The Basil Hayden Toast is so smooth! We really like it - a lot!.

The Angel's Envy single barrel is very tasty with a good kick on the long finish.

 

I finally got a bottle of the Cigar Blend. I’m very excited to crack this one open!

 

That’s a great bottle. Looks like Batch 136?

 

Batch 125. The older batches are even better but very hard to come by and they will almost always be secondary pricing. Most of the cigar blends are 11-18 years old.

 

Someone local in my area was selling a bunch of old Weller store picks. Crazy high prices but cool to see that many unicorns in one place!

 

The Weller is impressive but holy King of Kentucky!!!

 

Picked up the B drop

 

I have a trip to fish lake coming up, I'm thinking this will be my choice for carry.

 

Completely unrelated commententary I'm sure LOL

 

KOK!!!!! Wow

 

Good eye! Enjoying really 'tasting' coffee is a large part of what got me to try bourbon tasting!

 

That sounds dangerous

Though a maple/brown sugar espresso with some bourbon does sound really nice. Might need that for gamedays this fall...

 

This is amazing..

I wish it wasn't illegal to sell liquor privately here. Utah is a vulture when it comes to collecting its "fair share." Trades and sales do happen, but you don't come across things like this because it all happens privately through dark channels.

Do you mind if I ask what he was asking for these?

 

The prices on the Wellers varied between $525-$650 pending the bottle and year. Most of them were 2015 and 2016.

 

..and unfortunately, that secondary market has been driving the retail market through the roof the last few years as well

 

Free is my favorite.

 

Finally opened. Really, really enjoyable. Had a bit of a sampling tonight so forgive my very brief review.

 

Picked the same one up, did you end up liking the Templeton 10?

 

Hard to say the, I dont disagree, but I'm hopeful the increase in production and the meeting attention of mainstream maybe itll be back... in 2030 or so.

 

I did - I'm not a massive rye drinker but I enjoyed that one.

 

I found a Weller 107 1.75L store pick for sale from a local seller. I’m very excited to have this in my collection!

 

This is my favorite bourbon, used to he my daily before stuff got crazy. I have a couple spares in reserve, but I've never been fortunate enough to find a store pick.

Are you going to open or save it?

 

I have a few of the 107s in the 750ml so I’ll likely save this for now. The value on these keep going up since they don’t make them anymore. Looking for the Weller 12 1.75 next.
