    OGD 114
    BLANTONS
    EC 18
    ETL SB
    BT (I bought this right before I left the states)

    I'm asking for advice on what I need to round out my collection.
    I plan on adding a couple of WT expressions, but I'm not sure which ones(probably 101, and one of their top shelf Bourbons). I'm also going to be stopping at the duty free store in Frankfurt on my way home. Is there anything I might find there, that I won't be able to find in Oregon? I've had just about every Bourbon on the bottom shelves in Oregon, so I'm not looking to explore those, mainly just the middle shelf and up. Thanks.
    Please accept my thanks for your service - whether you're military or a contractor - in my opinion all are equally important in the GWOT.
    FYI - I'm ex-military and detest politics / politicians, but fully support what we (US) are trying to do - as do all of my friends who are either in Irag/A'stan or have been there or are going back.

    While I am still without doubt, a Bourbon novice, I can recommend Wild Turkey Rare Breed - a very tasty drink that I enjoy (sometimes with, sometimes without water) experimenting with...

    Stay safe over there and may you have a safe journey home.

    Regards,
    Todd

    If they have it get yourself WT Heritage and 12 year, there is a good chance they will both be available. And trust me you ain't finding anything to compare to those to in Oregon! I used to live there and still visit every 3 or 4 months.

    I could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure the Heritage was a bottle that WT did exclusively for DFS Galleria stores, which means there will be none in Frankfort. There is a store in Hollywood and a store in Hawaii that still sells it, other than that it would be Japan or other parts of Asia. Hopefully the WT 12 will be available.
