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

Bowman 147.5 17 year. First Bowman for me. Hope it is a good one. Looks like this one is generally thought of less favorably than the 18 year old bottles.

It is very good imo. Some might find it a little hot, but not any hotter than Bookers.

Got myself a standard 4RSB, wanted to compare it to the standard 4RSmB.

Best regards, Tony

On the standard versions, I find the 4RSB to be much better than the SmB.

'12 GTS!! Not a purchase, but a late birthday gift from a great friend!

Most definitely agree here. I had a terrible pour of SmB last night.

Today I received 3 bottles of Weller 12 in the mail. Needed a few extra to get the free shipping.

GTS '12 that the store held for me. They didn't get any WLW or Saz so neither did I.

Found 2 Saz18 2012 and picked up an Elmer T. Lee for good measure.

Good to hear. I am not in love with the bottle of Bookers I have, but I am hoping the age on the Bowman gives it more character. I love the Stagg I have had, so I am hoping this is in the same vein.

I also came across a lonely bottle of VW 10/107, which I purchased - have not had that expression yet.

Got my Old Gentlemanly Dude 15 year today. A HUGE thanks to TPS for making these accessible to those of us in starved states and a big EFF-Yoo-Tu to Young's Market in WA state.

I found it and its single barrel cousin to be disgusting, even after several months of air time. Eventually I just dumped the single barrel but luckily didn't have to make a decision on the vatting, as it was a sample.
