Collecting

[Bourbon Boiler]

The only bourbon I truely collect are the Buffalo Trace Experimentals. I've bought a second bottle of some releases that I actually wanted to try. That said, I accumulate many whiskies.

Nothing weird about that. I collect IUDs. Sure, they have no practical use for me, but I find them facinating. And if any guest needs to use one, my cabinet is always open.

screw tops, or corks only?

Secondly, also from my experiences with scotch, I know that in order to appreciate the entire spectrum of whiskey, that you need the common whiskies in the mix.

you guys don't appreciate how weird scotch drinkers are. Maybe now you'll get it.

OK, since no one has said it, I will. I think you are a little weird. It's your choice, but most of us here have a passion about whiskey and enjoy drinking it. There are tons of current things you could collect; I would think it would be more enjoyable to collect something you love.

I can't imagine having all this lovely bourbon and NOT being compelled to drink it. Why collect consumables you have no intention of consuming? Why not collect Furby's or stamps?

Isn't it just assumed that everyone collects Furbys?

Just because I am not compelled to drink it now, don't think that it will not be drunk. Patience is a virtue and all good things come to those that wait. And Max....don't be hatin'.

As a collector I try to keep the ones I really enjoy but try as many different gems as I can find. As such, I love strange and timely finds. I wandered into a small and random liquor store north of Chicago and found 4 bottles of Evan Williams Single Barrel 1990 vintage. I bought one out of pure nostalgia and found it to be quite enjoyable. Now the question is, do I go back to the store and buy the remaining 3? More than happy to share the wealth as well if anyone is interested in the location.
