Snagged from my local Safeway. I love all the HH line, but have never sampled this before. Anyone have a review?

It’s solid. And that’s a good batch too

 

[krafticus]

It's sucks this time because you drew two nice draft spots, but I really like this approach as well. And IMHO this is the smartest approach from a business standpoint, you get to reward more of your customers and give them incentive to buy more store picks. I'm assuming there are many more folks that are interested in bottles than bottles available, right?

Yeah, there were 284 tickets in the bucket, and 45 prize bottles

Damn you run good in whiskey drawing. I hope you don’t learn to apply that in flips!

Good stuff, get all that rungood out of your system before the meet up

Still an unfulfilled bucket list item to find one of these (regular or store pick) at retail or close to it. One day I'm going to walk into a store and there it will be for me.

I couldn't come up with an alliteration for this pour and Tuesday but I wanted it anyways

Tonight's poker line up. I only have about 4 whiskey drinkers but they crushed the 1792 12 year.

I've never seen it for under $200 around me, and I refuse to pay that. This was $69 (still a tad high), but I'll take it.
I've also seen the Full Proof (299 -399), 12 (399), and Special Reserve (69-129).

Again, my county is full of Rich entitled people, and I guess they can get these prices. I assume a lot of these prices are high though to keep the flippers out. I "think" that if you become a loyal customer and share the wealth (and juice), some of these prices MAY come down to earth. Some stores though are just greedy A*holes though

 

[Billy Baroo]

$69 for a good store pick of A107 is a very good price. Regular Weller Antique is $60 here if you can find it, so you’re not really paying much markup. I think you did real good!

A perfect Wednesday pour to day.

 

[Billy Baroo]

Gonna give Bernheim BP one more try. I wasn’t particularly impressed with the inaugural release last February. I remember the finish was short and dry and prevented it from being a very good pour. The potential was there, so I’ll take another swing.

The other two are just cabinet staple replenishments

Just another Manic Monday Wheater Wednesday.

Fun fact some of you may not know: Prince wrote Manic Monday. And Prince in 1997 is still the best show I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot.

 

[Billy Baroo]

I find myself reaching for this more and more frequently. Quite possibly my favorite 100 proofer

It is really good. I've gone through a couple of bottles

I’m glad I’m not the only MM46CS fanboi out there!

 

[Irish]

Lol, and I didn't even overpay for it. $30 I think, my dad brought one up from Florida for me. They're like $100 around here, assuming you can even find one.

Speaking of slumming, the Jim Beam Black is now a 7 year, 90 proof bottle, being compared to brands like Eagle Rare, at $25.

I saw quite a few 1.75s of the 7yr on the shelf today and an empty space for the 750s, so they’re here in NC already. I would have grabbed a 750 if the had any. I’m intrigued by this one.

 

[Hot Nuts]

Pricey for what it is.

Agree. I paid about $60 and didn't think it hit the mark

French Oaked too? This one is a little hard to find but worth it.

I think the 46 was rebranded to include “French Oaked,” but if you asked me I think all the names make it a little confusing! “MM46CSFO” lol!!!!

$80 in NC, I bought a friend a bottle in SC and it was $70. He likes it a lot so thought I'd give it a try. Much rather have 2 bottles of Four Roses Single Barrel for just a tad more.
