From what I have seen of their prices, I say FUCK Flaviar on bottles. Their sample thing may be worth a go. No discount for a PAID membership though. Free shipping is nice....but yeah

Blue Run is very proud of their whiskey, especially considering they have never sold any whiskey until now.
I absolutely agree. Their vault prices are 2-4x secondary. completely ridiculous. The membership is nice for the samples, and every now and then you find a bottle for cheaper than my local stores.

Ooo and got a Blood Oath 7 waiting for me in the office later. Always wanted one of those.
Haven’t cracked mine yet. The Pact 6 was fantastic last year. Took it on vacation and finished it off at @Josh Kifer game last summer.
I have a lil bit of 3 left!

Completely forgot that I had this bottle hiding in the back of the cabinet! Has to be at least 2 months since I’ve had a pour from this bottle.
Gonna run a light-pour flight of these tonight. One cork and two screw tops, but I won’t prejudge. Hahahahaha
You gotta love Buffalo Trace allocation day.

With tax, $98. Can’t compete with Pappy 23 x2 above me obviously, but around these parts this is about as good as it gets. Cheers!
That is the best name for a bourbon I have ever heard.

Its good to see the metric system slowly infiltrating the US. First with poker chips with millimetres and grams and now through whiskey with millilitres!
I can't think of a single bottle of liquor that uses ounces. The standard bottle here is 750mL and handles are 1750mL. Bottles of beer are still usually in ounces.
To quote a common meme floating around...
"There are countries that use the metric system, and countries that have gone to the moon."

I like how each year is a new “pact”, where they finish some of the bourbon uniquely, thus creating the new marriage, or "pact".

We Americans enjoy very much having something on common with Burma/Myanmar and North Korea. Metric system, schmetrick system!
And all are 98.6 proof.
Anyone try Blue Note? For $25 it’s fantastic. Its fruity and tangy and got a viscous mouth feel like ETL. It’s really good. I only bought 2 and I’m kicking myself

I never would have noticed unless I had two or three bottles of it in front of me. This one is my first. (My old school district had some Corona Bucks to splash around before having to return it to the feds, so I splurged a little on some bourbon. Now I'm going to splurge on some chip singles.)
Yes! It’s surprisingly good for how young it is. I picked up this store pick and have had to purposely slow down on drinking all of it.
How?????
Really like the nose (rich caramel, banana, oak), a slightly less interesting palate, and a short to medium finish are my first impressions....but I just cracked it a few days ago. (I heard the 15 is kinda the money)

So it is JULY. Is this an older release? Because we still have a few months for this years release....October to be precise.
Yep. BT has what’s called a premier reserve allocation, which are units and bottles that have not been claimed or have issues against their original orders. I belong to a list that has access to some of that inventory. It’s not always lucrative, but once in a while, like today, it can be fabulous.
All set for a lovely PCF/bourbon meetup 
Holy fuck
