Bottle kill. This was a good one, but probably not worth the $250 I paid.

I had this years 10 year at a restaurant, it was good. Hoping to add one of these decanters to my collection.

How’s the woodinville? I passed on it as I was unfamiliar at the time, haven’t had anything from them, but seems like the 8yr BiB is a winner. Cheers!

It’s very good.

Oh I know, I recognized the rick house & floor I bought & opened my bottle like a month or two before you got yours, and mine is still half full (I have a backup as well). I nurse this one given the availability and price tag lol

I had opened up the bottle and shared it with some of the guys .. and I was a tad drunk and didn't realize we drank 3/4 of the bottle. Saturday, one of my players opened the bottle to give it a smell, and broke the cork in the bottle. I took it to a buddy's house, removed the cork, and finished the bottle.

I wish I had a DC mailing address, since OF sells this for $89, but they only ship to about 7 states.

I'm in. Let's do it.

Potential candidate for a future scrub donkey pick?

Lego'ing tonight with some Old Forester

Had to replace my furnace today. Nothing more fun than spending money on maintenance. Seemed apt enough a reason to merit a new bottle. Cheers

I think just that and their Kentucky Oak edition

Is that the PX edition beside it in the purple box…I’m sure it’s way overpriced considering the Missouri Oak is 2 bills

FYI, it is the PX, it’s $149

My local store saves the good stuff for year end “thank you” bottles. It’s was a really tough choice, but this is what I selected.

Interesting…the PX Edition is $60 more than the Lusteau and they both retail at $90. Must be the more desirable of the two. The Yellow Spot is $20 less there than what I can get it for and it just sits on the shelves here collecting dust.

Those limited edition wine finished Green Spots that are sitting beside the Yellow are fantastic but not realistically worth more than $85-90. There’s 3 different ones and they’re all significantly better than standard Green.

Nice snag on the 4R LE!!!

Wasn’t particularly looking for bourbon, but I couldn’t pass on a Camp Nelson KY Spirit (they had bottles from two different warehouses). First time seeing anything from Kilchoman. Both were found outside my home county in a store that I’m rarely around.

Congrats mark! Got my allocation day on sunday

For any of you who watch the SLB podcasts, I found this one interesting. I really perked up when I saw an IOWA whiskey place first in this year end review. I don't think I can buy this in Texas, so I got on the phone with my sister yesterday, and she was able to pick me up a bottle of the Cedar Ridge Double Barrel Rye today. I'll be seeing her at our family Christmas gathering in MO next week.

Speaking of Missouri, isn't there a well regarded distillery in that state as well? Anything I should go looking for in local liquor stores that I'm unlikely to find in Texas?

Congrats, Mark. I just finished that bottle last week. It’s very good. I look forward to opening the 2023 soon.

In the mood for something different

 

[Klobberer]

A little nip of the good stuff to tuck me in before the chaos of the holidays start tomorrow.

 

[Klobberer]

Ok...one more. I have one more in the bunker. I'll save it for a special occasion.

Happy Fryeday! Getting ready for the degens to arrive for cash night.

 

[Billy Baroo]

Sadly…it still just doesn’t taste right. I had a tiny sip off my best Russell’s Private Barrel and it wasn’t good either

I just don’t understand why Scotch and Irish still taste good/great while bourbon and rye taste awful. If anything…my taste and cravings for peat bombs is thru the roof now.

This one is terrific…a tad bit young but very tasty and well balanced. Glad I found this one!

 

[woodsy]

Happy fryeday! This stuff has been surprisingly shelf stable at my liquor store lately. More reason to drink it

Those are nice cards. Probably the best decks I own.

I bought 5 decks of each color…regretting not getting more. Behind the Fournier 2826, these are my favorites and would be if they were jumbo index.

 

[Billy Baroo]

My scotch drinking reg brought this tonight…

Damn good for $45! Might need to grab myself one of these…I like this a lot!

Pregaming with a new SiB. I went to the same high school as Eric, I think he was like 10 years behind me, I was good friends with his older sister growing up. Good guy, and a hell of a ball player, we've met a few times at our has-been high school football alumni nights lol.

Pretty good pick

Warm up before Coy Hill. Hahahahahahaha
