Re: What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Summer 2008

Sorry to add yet another OT response to this thread but I was very happy to grab the last of the RR Rye bottles at a local liquor store, the only one I've seen since it's been released! :]

A Wild Turkey Rare Breed, and a Four Roses Single Barrel. Four Roses has now hit SoCal, and all I can say is...It's about time!

John, that's interesting. I know BT does alot of single barrels for retailers etc., but I don't think I recall hearing of anyone picking the AAA for it, until now. Have you opened it up yet? Please tell us what you think, when you get a chance.

Cheers!

I found a bottle of J.T.S. Brown BIB today so I had to pick it up.

Chuck and the rest of you are all horrible influences.

First time I'd seen one as well. Got it at the Party Source in Bellevue, KY. Haven't tried it yet (perhaps next week) but Jay (the spirits manager there) gives it a good review.

Re: What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Summer 2008

BT did a single barrel for A & L Wine Castle in Ann Arbor. I found it to be excellent particularly over cracked ice. Deliciously sweet and inviting for more.

I'm going out to AA next week, I hope they still have some left.
