I am not a big banana lover, but the flavor profiles of these are amazing. Same goes for apricots and good Seagrass bottles.

What says the brain trust? Kentucky Owl Rye Batch 3 for $190?

Not bad, not great
I wanna say it's a $200 bottle. I lucked into a few at $140 some how, but I also know of others going for significantly more.
It's a very good rye.

IIRC batch 2 got great reviews, and then batch 3 didn’t live up to the expectations. Still very good and don’t think your paying over retail

You know what I paid for the bottles of batch 4 that I got for us…with that being said, I’d buy one at $190 knowing how great B4 is.
$190 was pretty much what B3 retailed for and then the crazy jump up to $300 for B4.

Second different barrel my county got this year of this!! I’ve only seen this one other time here and that was at least 4 years ago

These OF SB BP bottles are some of my favorite!
I am trying to figure out what I want tonight. It might be a Lagavulin kind of evening. At least to start with
For me, 1 > 4 > 2 >> 3.
I don’t think I’d buy B3 again for that but it easy for me to say since I drained a bottle of it already.

What if I was to say that I think I am?
The weirdest thing happened on Sunday as I was drinking the Benriach Smoky 12 and the Benromach 15…the not so subtle and obvious smoke was much more subtle and not so obvious as compared to the first couple of pours from each. It’s still there but I had to really look for it if that makes any sense. The notes from the sherry and bourbon casks were much more noticeable now. I definitely felt like it could benefit from some more smoke. I don’t know how the 2 peated bottles I have compare to the heavily peated Islay offerings, but I definitely want to push the boundaries of what might suit my tastes.
The resident scotch drinker in my cash game echoed people’s thoughts here with Laga 16 and Oban 14 as no brainers, but he added Ardbeg Uigeadial to the list since he knows my preference for higher proof offerings. All three are readily available here.

Oh yeah. I love these!
Last time I looked, my local store had 5 bottles sitting in a glass case getting dusty. I think the ask was either $180 or $170. One week they had it marked down to $150, and none sold.
Actually, we talked about these a few months ago. Too bad we didn't think of it before DiD. I could have picked one up and hand delivered it.

Word on the street is batch 2 is the weakest. If anyone can find one for $150 or so I’d be interested. I’ve never owned one before and heard they’re solid
I may be a little off on those prices. I checked back in my DMs, and it was the sale price that was $170. It was definitely batch #3.
That’s still under msrp though. So still solid
