Today I stumbled across two Old Crow Chessmen (Light Night and Dark Night), An 8yr 101 proof Turkey decanter, a '99 WTKS pewter top, and a Louisville Weller Centennial. <insert smiley>

All nice finds Skunk! Congrats!
Today the bourbon fairy came in with some SW OFBIB, some Centennial, and I picked up one Pappy 15. Today was a good day!
Big splurge tonight. VWFRR, '09 BTAC Saz, and Lot B. It's only money.
We set out as men of reason, armed with Navy Colts.
Old Forester BIB from 1988. Figured for 16 bucks, worth a shot.
Yesterday I saw the new WT gift pack w/flask, which I bought along with a Ritt BiB because the prices seemed pretty good compared to what I've seen so far in these parts.

Yesterday I put a hurt on 2009 Four Roses Anniversary so I had to go shopping to stop me from slurping up the goodness. I'm mostly out of everyday drinkers and trying to stay away from the scarce stuff in the bunker so I set out today for a bottle of Ye Olde Grassy Knoll, otherwise known as Buffalo Trace.
I ended up walking out of the store with a bottle of BT and the last Wild Turkey American Spirit they had. I already pulled 3 out of there @ $60.00 and when I saw they had the last one marked down to $44 the nervosa took over and I grabbed that for the bunker. Pretty box, cant resist, hope I like it......

Finally saw a couple of bottles of BTAC on the shelves here, picked up a GTS and a Handy. Enjoying the new Stagg right now as a matter of fact!

Christmas came early for me today. Got my shipment in of Eagle Rare 17 and Pappy 20. PA prices are great. 55 for ER17 and 89 for PVW20.
While making a bourbon run for a friend, I picked up a couple things for myself too.I purchased a bottle of Old Fitz BIB (current), and an Old Forester Repeal Set. Ho Ho Ho! Joe

Finally scored a couple bottles of this year's Handy. Couldn't wait until after dinner for a short pour, so I grabbed a Glencairn, swirled the requisite amount of time (wife watching, had to make it look like I wasn't desperate) and I am loving this stuff. My first taste of any of the BTAC and I hit the jackpot.
No need to post notes I reckon, most of you guys are way ahead of me there, but I am blown away by this whiskey from start to finish.
Cheers!
