handle of Makers hit the bin last night. open for about a year, solid performer and will re-appear at a later date -- but it was taking up valuable real estate and I've now got room for maybe two more newbs. I'm thinking maybe Bourye & CEHT Tornado...
Rough night. The AAA 10 Year TPS Selection bottle is gone. What a great value.
Any Atlanta natives that know where I can get some AAA 10 yr locally, please let me know.
Tax stamped Old Forester Bib, bye bye. I'm going to miss you.
How was it? I found some tax stamped 86 proof the other day that I'm looking forward to trying.Quote:

The finish was quick and char again.
I would drink this everyday. It was young and to the point and didn't change a lot depending on what I would eat. I knew I was going to enjoy it with every reach. I have another bottle from the early '80s but I will wait and see if I can find another bib in my hunting before rushing through the next one like I did this. One of my favorite dusty finds yet.
I do see a lot of old 86 proof in Los Angeles so if you like it, I could probably direct you to a few places that have it.
Not sold in Georgia to the best of my knowledge...I pick mine up in Kentucky.Quote:

I've been debating putting in a big order for some AAA and getting a couple additional bottle of their private 4 Roses stuff (the bottle of OBSK I brought back is fantastic). Their website claims they can ship to GA. They were great to deal with in person when I was up there in the spring.Quote:

GD12 tonight, and a Baby Saz the night before.
Decisions are ahead, what to open next with the open space?
