What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? - Fall 2012

[petrel800]

Woohoo, picked up a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 15 year old today.

Picked up a 1.75 of Weller 12 over the weekend. That thing is a beauty!

The newest CEHT has hit town. It is a "small batch" BIB bourbon and probably what was left over from what wasn't used for the Single Barrel and Barrel Proof bottlings. On the plus side it arrives with a much friendly price tag of $39.99. OK, so it may well be little different than regular Buffalo Trace at higher proof and in a fancier package and there may well be better stuff out there for less money but I have liked this line for the most part and was pretty much going to get at least one no matter what. So the lower price is a welcome change!

On a similar line the previous CEHT Rye is still on the shelf all over town at $69.99 and up. I liked it but don't know that I will get more anytime soon, especially at that price.

Too cold to get out today, maybe tomorrow.

RR Single Barrel - Barrel Strength (at WT)

Tarheel,

Could you tell us a bit more about this one? This is the first I've heard of a barrel-strength, single-barrel Russell's Reserve. Is it age-stated, too? I'm going to guess it's a distillery-only bottling, but even so, it'd be great to hear your thoughts on it when you open the bottle.

Picked up another bottle of FRSmB LE 2012. I've now got one open and two waiting in the wings.

I'm thinking of picking up more, but this is an expensive buying habit...
