I liked my ECBP.... Haven't been lucky to stumble upon them again at my local shops.

I think that's the sexiest picture I've seen all week
Still one of the best values in bourbon, even at $70ish plus tax. This and Knob Creek Single Barrel Select. I've got a bunch of those too.

Both are right around $70 out the door. That is what I can find them

I found about ten ECBP yesterday
All were B522 for $80 plus tax. Eff no!

So enlighten me please. I take it there are multiple batches of this as indicated on the bottle. Some are better than others? C922 is better and B522 is not as good? I may go looking for this myself. Is there a definitive list of which are best?
Added ?: Does the 22 at the end of the batch number mean released in 2022?
three releases a year, A1, B5, and C9. yes, last two digits are the year.
So C922 is third release in 2022, B522 is second release in 2022.
And the 1, 5, and 9 are January, May, and September... them months in which the batches are supposed to be released.
no idea why they do this, like A is always 1, B is 5, so why delineate?
here, there be dragons

Maybe one year they have plans for a D1222?
It's all subjective. But the whiskey reviewers around YouTube believe that the B522 batches of Elijah Craig and Larceny are the best in a while... and the C922 batches are even better.
My opinion is that all of the batches are very good, but some are amazing.
A lot of people like a121 as well.
Ok, thanks. I may have misunderstood @FDLmold 's comment.
Bill, I’ve been able to get them pretty consistently around me for $79. Let me know if you want me to grab you one. I need to get down for a game soon.

Happy (late) birthday to myself… from myself.
The Old Fitz is 2018. The ETL is from 2010, I believe.

Picked these up today. The Sagamore is a new release. The Willet is for a Christmas gift for a buddy

I've had a Sagamore Rye before (I don't think it was that one though). Good juice. How is the Willett?

Well Crap! I just got back from the liquor store and completely forgot that I was going to take a look at the Sagamore Rye. I haven't added a rye to the collection yet.
But I did pick up these two. I went looking for the ECBP, but they didn't have any available.
The Early Times Bottled in Bond was recommended by the store clerk and confirmed by my son the bartender to be an excellent bourbon, especially considering it's a full liter and only cost $23!
I wanted to also add a Wheated Bourbon, so was looking at the Makers Mark 101 that has been suggested. But I figured the Cask Strength would be even better, and the price was pretty good on this too at $36.
So I got two new bourbons for less than I would have paid for one bottle of ECBP. Time for some tasting!
