Needed another opened bottle in the rotation...
Nope. Passed on it.@Saoliver , you picked up a Kentucky Owl Confiscated, correct? How long has it been open? Thoughts?
Anyone else drinking this bourbon? Thoughts?
I am having a pour from a bottle that has now been open for a few months (at least) and is really not bad. The big complaint is the price with ALL KO products. From what I hear, this is the worst bourbon they have....but it's pretty damn good imo. After all, I dropped $300 3x on their #4 Last Rye (which rules my face). Really want to try their other bourbons
What's the Rare Breed Rye like? I'm just coming to the end of my regular Rare Breed and would be interested in the Rye next.
It’s HOT. At first, for about a second or two. Then that sensation dissipates and powerful good flavors attack your tongue and throat. It’s an experience. I love the stuff. Ice mitigates these things somewhat if you prefer.What's the Rare Breed Rye like? I'm just coming to the end of my regular Rare Breed and would be interested in the Rye next.

I've read a lot of good things about Blue Run but I expect it to be nearly impossible to find in NorCal.Very interested in finding a Blue Run.
This is the first Sagamore I’ve seen around here… or the first I’ve noticed.Easily one of the best ryes I’ve had in quite some time! Yet another home run store pick from my go to local ABC!View attachment 771931
Nice! The only double oaked rye I’ve had so far is the Knob Creek Twice Barreled. It could easily be mistaken for a high rye bourbon. If your Sagamore bottle is anything like my store pick, you’ll have no doubt that it’s a rye! Now I need to hunt that one down lol
It's all over the place around me.
Want one? $81 with tax.That is the one the Bourbon Junkies love. I haven't been able to find it. Nice score!
Well that makes sense. It’s like how I can find Woodinville everywhere around here.It's all over the place around me.
How much for the Blue Run?Picked these up from fb group today

I’ve heard them talk about the cast strength but not the double oak. Do you have a link to it, I’d love to watch that oneThat is the one the Bourbon Junkies love. I haven't been able to find it. Nice score!
Finally got an invitation to "The Vault," which is how my local liquor chain distributes the high-demand bottles in my area.
They send an email out to invitees, and you get to purchase one bottle of whatever is still available until they run out. The email went out at 1:00 this afternoon, and I just saw it, so by the time I got there, many of the less expensive choices (Blanton's, Weller Antique, etc.) were gone.
Still, I managed to pick up my first bottle of Eagle Rare, which is simply non-existent around here, for $33. So I'm calling it a win.
