Jack Daniels has really upped its game the last few years with its age stated expressions and its annual limited edition single barrel releases. But for more readily available expressions of Jack, it is tough to beat the single barrel, barrel proof Tennessee whiskey. The regular single barrel really elevates Jack Daniels Tennessee whiskey above […]
I'm new here and have been enjoying the discussions. I'm curious if I could get some feedback from some of the pros here about a bottle of Old W.L. Weller Special Reserve that my great-grandfather bought in Midway, Kentucky in the 1950s. (He was born in Midway in 1895). I have been unable to find out […]
Hello, I am a new member from Germany. I am interested in Old Bourbon Bottles. Knowing something but want to learn more, so I joined this forum. Somebody offered me this bottle to buy for 2000€ (~2150USD) (Pics seems to come from a shop) Looks great, but I cant find informations about this […]
The Pennsy state stores must have made a deal with Barton. This month's "Chairman's Selection" consists of the entire Thomas H. Moore line of "extended cask finished" bourbons, priced at 45 buckos each, a $25 price cut. These are stone cold bargains at that price, and the one I picked up yesterday – finished […]

That's right, we are already getting set for the 2025 SB Fantasy Football League. We know we have one opening for this season that we need to fill and […]
Hello, I recently purchased a WFE purple top. It's barrel 2882 and can't find any information on it online… Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance!

I attended a dinner last night and the restaurant had an awesome group of bourbons. I was able to try William Laurie Weller, George T Stagg and Eagle Rare 17. Just amazing to see them all at the same place and priced as fairly as one can expect in a higher end restaurant. […]
I’d welcome thoughts on the Heaven Hill Grain to Glass series. Found a package of the 3 for a reasonable price. I like the higher proof possibility. MSRP is +/- $100 for each. Are they a burnt that price?
First let me say how I excited I was for this bourbon. If I could only chose one bourbon for my collection, it would be the Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. What would be better than a Double Oaked? Well conventional wisdom would say a Double Double Oaked. In reality, this was not what I concluded. […]
