What Did You Pass Up Today? Winter/Spring 2012

[c2walker]

As far as I know. Not many stores carry it but the ones that do seem to have a steady supply.

The first and only time I've purchased ODG 114 was in MN at a store in the Mall of America (I believe it was called Old Vine). I'm guessing locals avoid the MoA at all costs, but it might be worth dropping by on a bourbon hunt.

Gts 2011 for $11 a pour at the bar

I did order a VW rye for $13 though

Given the proof on GTS - that's like a two-fer!

Never had or even seen a bottle of VWFR rye. I would gladly pay $13 to give it a try.

Passed up on something I have never seen before today.... Black Maple Hill 23! No idea how much it usually costs or how many bottles of this are even around but at $200 it was cool to just see in the case.

There are probably not a whole lot of those still around. It is excellent rye whiskey and is one of my favorites. A member here found some recently for $85 I think, which is a great deal. I haven't seen one in a while but they ran in the $125-$150 range around here before they were all gone. $200 is definitely a marked up price but you won't find it a whole lot of other places.

Passed up on two dusty(literally) bottles of J.W. Dant BIB stuck behind some other brands at $12.99/750ml. However, bought the 3 bottles of Col. E.H. Taylor SB they had for a friend. Will return to gather more info on the age of the Dant. Worth it? If not, I can look around more, since today was first time there.

RVW 10 107proof.

Passed on a bottle of Vintage 17 year. Read good things about it, but after recently having Pappy 15, Pappy 20, and ORVW 107 I didn't think it would give me the wow factor that a $70 bottle should.
