What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Spring 2008

[jbaker]

Last night's purchase was Old Ezra 7 yr 101, a dusty Ancient Ancient Age 10 star, and a liter or Henry McKenna. I paid less than $15 for each of them.

Last night I did a little hunting and found a BTAC ER from 2003! The lettering on the year is a bit hard to read, so it's either '03 or '05. My buddy who works in a bank swears it's an '03. But I'll post a pic for ya'll to judge. Either way, '05 or '03, it was still only 59 bucks!

The find of the night was a bottle of Pyrat rum cask 1623 for $70 instead of the $250 that it is everywhere else!!!! yeah-yeah

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did they have only one?

Distilled in 1986 and bottles in 2003 (17 yrs). You are correct... it is 2003

Nice! Hard to imagine this has just been sitting there. Although it was on the shelf 2nd to the bottom. Next time I'm down in Chula Vista I may have to do some more hunting.

Oh, and if anybody is looking for Baby Saz, it's all over Coronado.

Picked up another WLW Special Reserve for the bunker for $13 given all the talk of possible shortages etc... I like this for travel or for anywhere I might want to leave the bottle.

Thanks to the generosity of a fellow sb'er, I extended my EWSB collection to 1988, an Old Charter 12yr 90pf, and a little 200ml of J.W. Dant BIB with a tax stamp.

Thanks Dan!

Thanks to an SB member for passing it along, my Father-in-law in AZ was able to pick my up a Weller Centennial.
He is a snow bird who lives in AZ from Oct through May. I think after walking into a Bevmo for the first time he will add that to his list of where to take visitors, he was really impressed. We don't have stores like that in WA., and he had never seen one in his short time in AZ.

A trip to my favorite liquor store, Daveco, yielded the following:

ER17 '06
EC12
OC12 (The Classic 90)
PVW15

They just received the "Hirsch Selection" 20yo, but at almost twice the price of Pappy 15 I don't see myself being tempted any time soon.
