Blood Oath Pact 10 @ msrp $139.99. On the high side of my average. Is this worth picking up?

 

[Klobberer]

WTF!!! Why do I do this shit to myself. I WAS perfectly happy in my own little bourbon and rye world. Simply amazing!View attachment 1331204

This is so rich, oily and creamy it just blows my mind. Where in the hell are all these different notes coming from?!?!?!View attachment 1331206

On the plus side...this is the grail of Irish whiskey. No need to hunt anything else.

Making some more room

 

[Irish]

I remember you saying one could easily start AND finish here for an intro to Irish whisky. No argument here

Yeah but what's the fun in that?????

The good thing about Irish is there aren't nearly as many options as the bourbon world. The bad news is they get exponentially expensive....

Soon enough you'll be eye spying shit like this....

I've had my eye on this one for a while - Glendronach Portwood. Really really good, layers and layers of red fruit and honey with an interesting kinda spicy background. The kind of bottle I could kill over the weekend..... all by myself.

Anyone had Glenlivet 15 or 18? Is it worth the price over Founders Reserve (which I personally think is way better than the 12 yr)

Finally got my hands on this bottle that my son helped pick for a local store. It's wonderful! Older than most store picks - 11 yrs and 10 months according to my son. I haven't been on this bourbon journey for a long time, but this is the best EC bottle I've ever tasted. I will state that I haven't found C923 yet.

Wonderful. If you love it, get more. As many as you can.

I helped pick a barrel for a local store and I got the empty barrel as a gift. I also bought a dozen bottles because it’s great!

C923 might be my favorite ECBP now, overtaking B520 and C920. I’m glad that I have many bottles of each hidden away.

 

[Saoliver]

Nightcap. Thank you again, @RocAFella1, for your generosity.

Yeah, but no secondary. That's retail.

 

[Billy Baroo]

Yeah, but no secondary. That's retail.

To be fair…it was marked down on sale

 

[Billy Baroo]

You have to stop in a store that you’ve never been in before, don’t you?

Glad I did! These Old Scout Ryes aren’t common around here and I haven’t seen any KC SiB Reserve in about 5-6 months.

Coworker flew in today and brought me a Kentucky care package

Diving right in

 

[Billy Baroo]

Starting to really enjoy this one.

 

[Billy Baroo]

For those that have tried Disco #11…Is the juice worth the squeeze at retail? The store I was in today had a couple sitting on the shelf but I didn’t have enough cash on me to grab one.

 

[johnnycnote]

This is delicious. Your eyes will sting from the heavy alcohol before every sip. But, it’s delicious

I think it’s the best disco in several years. It has a turkey profile so you have to like that

Welp, I guess this is as good of a time as any to open these.

I hear it’s fantastic, but never had it. It’s $129 by me (well, at one store. $160 most elsewhere)

Over Red Spot and the Midleton Very Rare series? Without even tasting them? I don't think so...

Fantastic pour!! I honestly think the rye is better than the whiskey but I’m then again, I’m a ryeboi

Gotta love 135 proof! Highest proof I’ve personally seen was 134.something

I’ve been known to drink some Turkey from time to time

My favorite as a bourbon drinker...

 

[Billy Baroo]

It was $140 plus tax. I’ll probably swing by tomorrow after work and grab one.
