Hey bourbon buddies, would it be inappropriate for me to ask you to vote for my Turk's Head hotstamps in the first round of Best chipset of 2020?

My evening on my Saturday night brown liquor tasting group.

"Not mine," but I was discussing whiskey with my buddy in Toronto, I asked about Alberta Premium Rye and he sent this pic. He noted the two bottles are the same product but Alberta is the only province that doesn't recognize French as an official language. And there's no discount for buying it up there.
The more I drink out of this glass, the more I like it. It has the heft and feel in my hand of a solid Old Fashioned glass and the nosing qualities of a glen. I always felt a little dainty drinking out of a glen...those who know me know I ain't dainty!
The Alberta was excellent, and I’m not a huge fan of Rye.
The Plantation was the best rum I’ve ever tasted, hands down. Easily my favorite bottle of my rum collection. Just fantastic.
I‘m really glad I picked it up. It was a case that was destined to an unnamed Chicago rum bar, but never picked up, so the liquor store put it up for sale to the public.

1792 12yo sample from @Big Jilm
Good, not much different than the other 1792's I've had. I'd pay $39.99...not sure what it retails for.
High West YKY sample from @juankay20
A little funky, not my favorite HW, but I wouldn't kick it out of bed. Once again, not sure what retail is, but wouldn't pay more than HW Double Rye.

I don't know how I feel about what I'm about to write...2020 GTS did not live up to the hype. It was a neck pour, but it did not crack my Top 5. On the bright side, I don't need to chase. I'll revisit in a couple weeks...
Anyone have a ECBP C919 they'd be willing to part with? I have an extra C920...
Whats the price on the Plantation?
That's the beauty of rum...so good and so cheap!

There's a Foursquare Sagacity at my liquor store with my name on it once the weather warms up. About the same price range.
Just had a Booker's. Sometimes I dig it, mostly I am not a fan of the nuttiness.
Having a Knob Creek 15 year now. I love it so much more than I did when I cracked it. It really took a long time to open up....OR it took me a long time to finally appreciate it.

You def get back to us on that (in like a month)!!

Tried my local mom and pop store today, just to say hi. Not in the mood to buy anything unless it is a Maker's 2021 Wood Finishing series perhaps, or a Woodford cask strength (which I saw a picture of today).
It's sad, but they were all out of Buffalo Trace 750s.
But they had all the liters and 1.75s I could ever want! lolz

It’s like Blanton’s. $60 bottle, the bourbon is fantastic, but not for $200-$300 from the secondary market.

Finally finished this. I love WT Rare Breed so I thought I’d like this. I did not like this.
Alright, I have gone back and forth on this a few times. TONIGHT and going forward, I like the Remus II better than the Smoke Wagon UCUF. Nothing wrong with the SW, I will buy that again if I can find it. But Remus has it covered.
I tried it again last night and was still underwhelmed...I'm gonna blind it with some ECBPs and Bardstown Discovery.
Bourbon Junkies KC barrel pick just arrived...
I keep going back and forth on whether I should get this bottle or not... The fact it opens up nicely is definitely a plus.
