Hey if it's there I'd chose one too. But like you, I'm not going out of my way to look for one.

Thanks.

Years ago, you could get Bulleit in these bags. It didn't cost any extra and regular ol' Bulleit has never been tater-bait. It's used to crush ice and works really well.

Having a belated birthday pour. 2018 OFBB in my glass.

Might as well. I use a Blanton's bag to hold tees in my golf bag....

Working on a couple of space hogs. A family sized WSR from about 10-years ago or so, and an Old Forester Signature family size from about 9-years ago. Both are still near-half-full, and that's a good deal of Bourbon; but, I'll keep at 'em until victory is mine! AND, I must say it's a tasty battle to wage. HA!

YouTube channel Mash and Drum did a review of this and, according to Jason, it's better, but not significantly better, than the 10yr.

I would buy Blanton's whenever I saw it when it was $50ish. But those days are gone. It's not worth current msrp, IMO.

When HH BiB 7yr. got to Calif., I bought a bottle and a friend and I did a sbs with the 6yr (a bottle I traded a OE BP 7yr for) and EW BiB. The 6yr was the winner followed closely by the 7yr and the EW. Needless to say, at the current price, I haven't bought another but I've bought multiples of the EW.

It's a ripoff all right but, that's what it's going for in my area at stores that don't mark up. Needless to say, it's been a long time since I bought one..

It’s 3 with & 3 without per 6 pack, kinda the same as Blanton’s. I don’t specifically chase bags, but when I was picking my Old Fitz up, the price was the same with or without…. So I figured Im taking the stupid bag since I paid for it.

Sunday Evening BA manhattan. Starting with the Penelope 4G version I made last year.

Sounds like a good title for a documentary. Chase the Velvet Bag--a taterospective look at the current state of bearded Millennial whiskey hunting.

Saw a bottle of the Old Ezra 7 BS going for $79.99 today. Is this a ripoff or what?

Around here, the stores have to keep the flavored CR locked up in the glass cabinet.

I bought this in Mesa, Arizona. I've tried searching for everything under "always parched" and only come up with a podcast and I didn't see anything about them doing a barrel pick.

You are killing me!

At first, I saw 10 years and suspected this was one from a few years back (when WFE was sourced barrels). But no, the label says "Distilled, Aged and Bottled by Willett". So I guess that makes it a fairly recent bottling of some of their own early stuff.

I’ll join Clermont Clan tonight, JBDC in the glass.

Hi Ken. Welcome to SB. The “Always Parched” label would seem to offer a clue to the provenance of this single barrel. Please share where you purchased this bottle from, and maybe we can help you out!

Hello, I recently purchased a WFE purple top. It's barrel 2882 and can't find any information on it online... Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance!

....and the crabby weekend continues

Jim Beam SiB in the glass...

Another Punch. Check out the cool pic that we found yesterday, (ignore the goofball in the reflection) Look closely at the frame...it resembles a tobacco leaf. If you look very closely, right above the signature, "Cuba" is lightly embossed on the mat.

AMEN!!
