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

[squire]

Good Man! But please do have pity on poor Mr. Wiser who has been bottled up for ever so long and needs to get out, breathe, and make some new acquaintances (sound of Squire ruffling through his travel calendar).

I bought a bottle of PHC 2012 today after fighting the urge for a while. This makes three bottles of this for me, which is unprecedented for a limited release. I must like it!

[squire]

Jim I think of your purchase as good taste trumping mere financial considerations.

I always say it's better to pull the trigger late than never at all!

Not bourbon, but since Squire piqued my curiosity, I picked up a bottle of Wiser's Legacy Rye, on sale for $36/750. Beautiful bottle - square footprint, slab-sided, heavy as hell glass.

I might even open it. It would be my first ever Rye.

This is a sleeper of rye that doesn't get a lot of mention, but is a knockout product. I'd pay that any day for it.

Yesterday, I bought a bottle of Breckenridge and a bottle of Russell's Reserve 10.

Please, please let us know what you think of the Breckenridge. I've been singing its praises since my first bottle. It's astonishingly interesting bourbon, period. When I consider how young it is, it's even more astonishing.

Grabbed another bottle of WT Cheesy Gold Foil and a pewter-topped Kentucky Spirit that I found in a crappy Southside neighborhood liquor store. Sometimes you've gotta go where you'd rather not in order to find the gems.

Pappy 15yr
Sazerac Rye
(2) Weller 12yr

Oh..Don't ask...Sorry as I need to keep this close to the chest.

Only the Store Manager was handing these out for those who asked. I will be going back this weekend to see what is left. Only 1 bottle
per person..I did bring 2 other people from work..

Friend at work has a contact with the NJ Distributors at Federal and Fedway.

Nice one, dude. Get your wife, mother, brother, sister and cousin in there to get the rest, though I do hope you're getting them at fairly reasonable prices.

How true. If you don't succeed at first, try, try again!
