What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Autumn 2008

[polyamnesia]

well, at least i only had to trek 13 miles away to get to the nearest BTACs around here....Stagg just showed up in my town, but with the eCoNoMy (!), i figured i wait and hope others, too, would leave them on the shelf for at least a week...

anyways, my trek to West Chester found my first Saz 90 (baby?) at $24.99 i will more than likely return tomorrow to get the Handy Saz (at 123 or so proof?) which costs $53.99.....i know it's worth it.

Took delivery of Handy and Stagg 08 as well as ORVW 10/107 and a VOB BiB. Unfortunately, only two of the bottles are for me.

I see a Weller Antique '08 in your future as well.

Well... I couldnt stand it any longer, I had to make a Liquor Barn run today.

I picked up a WL Weller Special Reserve, a Heaven Hill BIB, Some George Dickel No 12 and a Gentleman Jack gift set.

There was so much more that I could have bought... but I was broke!

I noticed that the OGD BIB went up about four bucks since last month. Seemed like a pretty large increase.

I need to decide what I am going to taste tonight and get after it!

Thanks spun_cookie and fishnbowljoe for your comments on my recent purchases in the Summer WBDYPT thread. I would have thanked you there but the thread was closed prematurely. I posted it in there as it is summer now for us antipodeans here in Australia and thought it relevant to post there instead. Is there a protocol for threads more than 6months old or did i happen accross one that hadn't been closed yet?

Not sure... some they close when the get crazy long... the rotate the bigs ones by season... still one hell of a run

I'm not sure about that either...but I've always considered this forum to operate on Kentucky time/seasons...though the only real indication of this is the Notice for the "Official Chat Sessions" is in EST (Eastern Standard Time), which includes every currently operating Bourbon Distillery in Kentucky.

Grabbed another WLW SR so I don't burn through all of my Julio's bottles before Xmas.
