What bourbon did you purchase today? - Winter 2012/2013

Since they can't ship here I don't even look, too depressing.

Ok, techincally it isn't a bourbon (since it was aged in used oak instead of new) but I picked up a bottle of that Hirsch Selections 20 YO American Whiskey. It was marked down a good bit so I figured why not.

Yesterday evening I picked up a bottle of Russel's Reserve and a bottle of Basil Hayden. Both very good, IMO.

I grabbed a TPS 4R1B. Is the current barrel as good as the last one?

After passing it up several times, picked up a 2011 Four Roses LE SmB today.

Good choice. I paid a visit to the distillery back in Oct. Very cool little setup they have going there.

I was up there around the same time. Luckily for me, because I'm in Colorado, the larger shops tend to put this and Stranahan's on sale frequently. To me, it's not a bad buy at $32.99.

Good choice. I paid a visit to the distillery back in Oct. Very cool little setup they have going there.

It's worth noting that the whiskey in the bottles available now was likely not distilled in Breckenridge. I do have to say that the one time I've tried it, it did strike me as a good bourbon that is probably worth the $35 it costs in Colorado.

A couple weeks ago I asked a retailer to stock Old Fitz BIB. Guess what appeared on shelf for $15.49? VSOF. Distributor and/or retailer must have mistaken it for Prime, 1849 or maybe even 750 BIB. Picked up a couple bottles.
I'm thinking I should tell him: might foster a nice relationship.

Old Grand Dad BIB, and Old Grand Dad 114 (woot!). I been all over half this state and this is the first time i've seen the 114.

I expect the 114 may grow even more scarce as it's reputation increases.
