The advantages of having an unsophisticated whiskey palate! LOL. I actually enjoy blending and drinking my infiniti bottles. I'll take something I'm less fond of, then blend in something I like to make it taste better. But not the expensive stuff... I'm not stupid! LOL.

And I document the bottles and their proof so I can calculate the proof of what's in the infiniti bottle. When I add something new, I measure how much is still in there as a starting point.

I HAD a bourbon only infinity bottle that I added to and subtracted from for over a year until one day I found it to be better than anything I had in the cabinet. I drank it down to empty and haven’t started a new one yet.

I documented everything that went in…always adding or subtracting 2 ounces at a time and kept track of the overall proof after each time something new went in. I want to do a rye only bottle next since I enjoyed the process of seeing how it changed for better or worse after each time I added something.

Downed my whole bottle in a week (on vacation).

It is dangerously smooth for 130 proof

I've heard that one sucks ass, but I'm assuming you've foolishly already run over and picked it up. Shoot me a PM, I can dispose of it for for you.

Depends on the juice. My buddy got a bottle of rare breed signed by Jimmy Russel, no way in hell I'd ever open something like that up. But if it's a really premium bottle ($200-$300+) I'd have a hard time not cracking it open.

I'm pretty sure that everyone has a bottle signed by Jimmy Russell...

I’ve heard it’s msrp is 2.5x the price of the 13 YO.

Is this what you guys are talking about?

At MSRP, yes.

At MSRP, yes.

They also offered me this but I left it for the next person.

Fresh crack but very underwhelming. Similar sour note I get from Maker’s but not as overpowering. We’ll give it a second and third chance after it gets some time breathe a little before I start shipping shit off…again

 

[Billy Baroo]

Much better!

Nice snag. I've had my eyes open for one of the 100p single barrels, but have never seen one on a shelf. About how much do they run? I assume somewhat less than the cask strength SBs.

Yeah, these were $69 before tax. I’m on his group me and he publishes his barrel picks. I’m usually there about an hour later. ;-)

Yeah .. he always posts his picks on GroupMe, and when they come in, that’s how he starts it. That, and this wasn’t a short barrel (his last picks have all been short)

 

[krafticus]

Here’s what’s upcoming….

 

[Billy Baroo]

Happy Fryeday! Gonna start with Willett and stay there with a good, cheap bottom shelfer from them for the cash game

 

[Indyscammer]

First 2 Fryeday pours.

Sagamore anything is always a solid choice. Except their double oak. Tastes like eating a tree.

I agree with everything you just said

So good. Only 1 behind. Will be a sad day when it's gone.
