28 bourbons (only 12 open right now )
4 ryes (1 open)
29 single malt scotches (6 open, I guess I have gotten more into bourbon of late)
1 rum (open and excellent)
4 brandies (open)

I guess I don't like to have too many bottles open at once and there are some bottles that seem to be worth more closed than open (like Hirsch 20 and W.L. Weller 19), but over time as bottles get finished I keep trying the new stuff.

Cool! Are the Older bottlings opened??? The Old Overholt 1930 would be a treat I would guess...

Thanks for the reply!

Only the Pikesville . I brought 2 bottles to the Sampler.

The Old Overholt is an uncut single barrel, 113proof, 6 1/2 yr old,

distilled and bottled at Broad Ford, Pa. It was bottled in

1940, so the distillation occured just after the end of

Prohibition. The contents remain sealed.

Wow, these are some huge numbers.

I finally got my Excel file done (since my memory faded and I started bringing home duplicates..."Oh, darn! Guess I'll open that one!")

I rolled in at 70 different whiskies including

12 rye
4 irish
3 tennessee
1 scotch
1 corn
1 canadian

I'm looking forward to adding to the rye count here soon as the new Saz should be out shortly (both the Antique and the younger version).

Damn guys, Makes my six bottles of half open bourbons look sick. I envy all of you. May I ask a dumb rookie question?
Where do you find old unopen bourbon? I know there isn't any around these parts.
