Does it say where it's distilled? Indiana? Probably pretty good. WV? Who knows. Their bourbon is pretty good.

I’m pretty sure it’s the 95/5 MGP Rye Mashbill.

The bourbon picks were Dickle for a few years but they are back to being MGP as well, although younger MGP.

I ended up passing on it. They had Thomas Handy too, but at $400. :mad:
 
It's Irish night at my neighbors bar. Black 47 and Seanachi on in the background.

Amazing. The best I've ever had and probably ever will. I was still early in my bourbon journey. I wish I could try it again now that I'm a little more experienced.
I really like wheated bourbons. Had tried a few like Larceny. One of the reasons I am excited about trying the WSR. So Larceny was what I was used to and then I tried this and it blew the doors off. Kinda made me sad because it ruined Larceny which was good enough up until that point.
 
A121 is kicking A119's ass. The noses are basically identical. A119 is about 10 higher in proof, which is not noticable in the aroma.
Flavor though, especially neat, the A119 has a harshness to it, and I don't think it can't all be ascribed to the 5% higher alcohol content.
I'm pretty buzzed on this super high proof stuff, so I may not get to the "on ice" contest.

I got a WSR for trade but honestly if you had WLW it will ruin a lot of other bourbons for you.

I like Rabbit Hole Cavehill. Interested in hearing first hand accounts of the Dareringer.

The sherry cask is a unique flavor. Not text book but interesting. I have to dilute with a couple of cubes to get to the flavor (not a burn fan) but complex flavors abound underneath. I prefer port casks but this is good. Not sure I will pay $80 again.

Here is a proper one. HAPPY FRYEDAY!!!

Oh man, this bottle is really starting to open up. I wasn't that impressed with the first pour...am I ever? I could see this one getting better and better as I work my way through. NICE

Yeah, I'm learning that you have to keep trying. If you can't get there after the bottle is done...don't buy it again.
 
Damn dude, that Kentucky Owl Rye 4th (and final) is soooo good. It has it all. Nose, palate, finish and mouth feel. It is $300 here. Did I pay that to try it? Yes. Will I pay that again to have one back up............sure. I can't wait to try my sample of KO2. This stuff is over priced regardless of the # but it IS SO DAMN GOOD!
