Found this little gift pack today. Found an EWSB 2000 last week, so I've got a little collection going, but it won't last since I intend on drinking all of the "invaluable" contents. If anyone needs a '99 EWSB for a collection, PM me, I think I saw another gift pack hidden behind some other stuff.

Last night I was in a local bar with a great selection of Bourbon. I asked about the Parker's 27 I saw and was told the price of $9, served in a tumbler. Giddy-up; What a very nice pour this was. I'm pretty sure they are not making much off a $9 price- it may have been mis-entered in the system, it's hard to say. I may end up trying that one again soon. Wow, what a finish- I can almost still taste it....

That's gotta be a mistake. I've only seen that in one bar, and it was around $50/glass. Nice score by you.

While traveling the last few days I picked up a couple of recent B&B Packages private barrel selections of OWA and BT. They always do a nice job on their picks, particularly with BT products, so I'm looking forward to popping them. Also, picked up the new CEHT Rye. I have to run first, but I will be opening that one soon after.

Yes, probably an error.
The one time before I tried it at the same place it was closer to $20. They have most of the bottle left. I'm pretty sure I'll be back for more of that one Too bad the food there isn't worthwhile.

The Weller 12 yr old finally arrived, so I picked up 3 750s to add to my stash. It is in short supply in central Ky and was allocated to individual stores by the distributor.

Oh man, need to get out and look. Running low (ish).

Ended a much needed purchasing freeze with Binnys Knob Creek SB #150B.

I purchased my first Weller 12 Year at Chuck's in Bowling Green, KY back in April. I purchased some other bourbons and the clerk recommended that I try the Weller 12. She told me they had just got 10 cases when they were usually just allocated one or two. It was so good I called my brother to pick up a case for me. That was one of the best decisions I have made in a while.

What were you thinking, Joe? You should have cracked it and posted notes from your phone while in the checkout line! This is the release I am most curious about; it will either be really good or really overpriced. Please post in the rye forum when you finally taste it.
