I found a Barrell 14yr single barrel rye when we moved our daughter into her dorm this summer. I need to crack it soon…if it’s good, I’ll grab another while I’m out there next weekend visiting her.

Cleaning out my dad’s bar, cam across this Jack Bicentennial still in packaging in bottle. Looks to have some value from a quick search.

And a neon light he has had since the 80’s. Our last name is Miller. But this rotating light is cool. It rotates in two different directions. It has chips, dice, cards and then the Dunes, Flamingo etc.

A few more dusty, unopened bottles I came across. Don’t know much about any. I know VO and Canadian Mist were his favorites until he starting splurging on Crown lol. He must have 10 bottles of crown unopened too.

Not much of a drinker, but I assume liquor doesn’t go bad. At least the unopened bottles. The Chivas is 1/2 gone, is that still good?

If I’m seeing the top bottle label correctly, it appears that the Kentucky Spirit bottle was bottled in 94. That was the first year for those. Highly collectible and I’m very jealous

Incredible find @Littleluck55

Picked this up on the way home from work, I have heard good things. Looking forward to a dram later tonight!

Yes, 9-94

They have been sitting in the basement since he bought them. Now time to clean them up and put them on the shelf when the basement/bar is done

Cheers! Such a great pour. I’m thinking I SHOULD make an old fashioned.

I would have, but my daughter thought it would be ok to use all of my luxardos for her cocktails while she was home on summer break and not tell me. I was out of ice balls as well.

Our barrels are very close together so I’m thinking yours is very similar to mine and yes, it’s absolutely fantastic!!

My mini-fridge/freezer in my whiskey room went out this week, so no good ice cubes or balls for me.

Yes, I realize how ridiculous that sounds.

Do you need an emotional support animal to get you thru this difficult time? I got 2 lazy ass hounds that would love to come over and raid your fridge

 

[Hot Nuts]

Is this any good? Picked it up for $40. It was $30 off surprisingly and I got the last bottle.

 

[FDLmold]

If air cannot get to the whiskey, a.k.a. it is properly corked/sealed, then it remains unchanged in its glass container for decades.

I have few heroes. I might have to add this guy to the list.

 

[gopherblue]

Time to find out what all the fuss is about.

 

[FDLmold]

I would happily beg for a RR15 sample. To compare with my RR13 batch 1. For science!

How is it? Forgot if someone commented previously

It’s pretty good. Definitely better than A124 but B523 is still their benchmark for me. I thought C923 was better as well.

I get a ton of cinnamon and heavy barrel char in this one. It drinks pretty hot but not as obnoxious as I thought A124 was. There’s some nice underlying dark fruits and chocolate notes that appear as the heat dissipates. Finish could stand to be a tad bit longer but it’s decent as is. At $65, these are still no brainer snap buys and usually worth getting a backup. That’s my .02

If it’s gotta be wheat, it’s gotta be Wednesday.

 

[Saoliver]

There’s wheat in a 4 grain!

This one is fantastic

JD is probably my second favorite distillery after WT. Everything they do is solid or better. Except that ridiculously priced Sinatra crap.

Yup. Sinatra whiskey sucks
