Ending on a high note

New store pick at my favorite retailer. Anyone know anything about this distiller? Bottle is 102.3P and cost is $49.99.

Spirits of French Lick is still figuring out how to make good products. Their stocks are all getting older, and I think they are doing better. My local stores have several versions of SoFL picks available and they all just sit on the shelf, though.
 
I have the 4 bottles on the right, and, naturally, will be starting with the rye tonight.
I've got an pre-lockdown EHT SiB that I've been holding onto as they've been very tough to find. I think I got it for $70. Good luck finding the small batch for $70, let alone the single barrel.

... But might be time to crack it.
 
So, I went into one of my local Brooklyn shops that prices fairly, to pick up a hard-to-find bottle of that 9 year old Knob Creek Cask Strength Rye, for @Pinkdan.

I casually asked the shopkeeper if he had anything interesting.

He replied, "I got a couple Stagg Batch 18's this week, and put one aside for you."

Grateful, I offered to open the Stagg and pour tastes for all three of the folks working at the shop. The shopkeeper was so appreciative of the gesture that he asked me if I wanted the second Stagg, too.

Yes. Yes, I did. And yes, I did. :cool

This is the way.

Those KC Cask Ryes are incredible! That is a bottle from batch 1 which is supposed to be even better than the batch 2 that I have…and batch 2 is the easily one of the 2-3 best ryes I’ve ever had. You’re in for a real treat @Pinkdan!!

Such a shame they haven’t released any more of those:confused
