What Bourbon did you purchase today? Fall 2009

[BBQ+Bourbon]

Yesterday, I found a liquor store that had two Jefferson PS and a half dozen Lot B Van winkle without the Julia(n) sticker. Wanted to buy one but could not justify it because another store is ordering BTAC for me.

Today I went to another store to pick up the JRPS I promised to a fellow board member and it was gone! Picked up an OGD 114 for good measure. This confirms my long standing suspicion that somebody else is in my area hunting bourbon. Long story, but somebody is in KC hunting and he's looking at the same bottles I am. Odds are, it's an SB member.

Today, I went to the store in question and picked up the two remaining JRPS and one Lot B. Hopefully my competition won't come to this store and discover that the JRPS is gone. If he does, I am confident he'll clean out the remaining Lot B. Otherwise I'll nab a couple each week until one is left. I will leave the last one for Mr X.

One day I am sure I'll meet this other bourbon nut. Can't wait! We'll have a ball!

Yesterday I found a gold-veined OWA bottled in '95, and I also picked up a handle of Weller 12 'old-label' bottled in 2000.

Randy's gonna be mad at you for stealin all his old label Weller 12 handles.

I have a stash here in Dallas, but they are $39.99 each. What did you pay?

[gblick]

This one was $30.99.

I got my D&M American Whiskey Club Selections today.

Tuthilltown 100% Corn and another 100% Rye.

Aged for 1 year in 5gallon barrels in a warehouse that pumps bass when aging to get 'more contact with the wood'.

Won't that make the whiskey smell like fish?

Dan Ackroyd said it best, "Mmm...that's good bass."

Man, for how dear this stuff is it better not taste like fish.

I may drink it out of thimbles just so I dont kill a bottle in 2 sittings.

It is an interesting concept, but I could have bought a lot more bottles for these prices.

today I picked up ETL 90 bday, JPR 17, WLW09, and Tuthilltown NY whiskey. The JPR is excellent, better stock up on this one. tim

I got 3 OWA 107 7yo AS old label, 1 Weller SR new bottle (cuz I'm a nerdy collector) and an Old Charter 10yo, any 10yo at 18 bucks can't be all bad.
