What Water of Life/Scotch are drinking or purchased 2025?
Scotch_Collector replied to jvd99's topic in Foreign Whiskey
Those both look excellent. I love a PX cask single malt and Balvenie and Glenmorangie both make great Scotch. I have a Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX (original release) that I am still sipping now and again. Great bottle. That is the bottle that got me interested in PX finished and matured Single Malts. Enjoy in good health and let us know what you think. -

Virginia ABC still has tons of it. Also, the 108 proof version replaced the 95 proof version, so the lower proof one would definitely be old stock. I haven't had it since the proof increase, but would be interested if I ever see it at a bar. There were also picks of the 108 proof version, but I was told at Beam that, at least currently, those would only be special requests by important accounts, as opposed to a broadly available option in the pick program. - Today

What bourbon did you purchase this spring season of 2025?
Kepler replied to MSB's topic in General Bourbon Discussion
I have no idea, but $80 feels like secondary pricing for that product. I'm probably wrong, but that's my gut feeling... -
True. I can get Stellum "Black" rye and bourbon for $39.99 now locally. For those of us that experienced American whiskey *before* the bubble, these new prices seem about right for what we are getting. People: Do NOT overpay for bourbon and rye! Prices will return back to sane levels very soon. Just be patient.

So how many of those events are you attending? Lol Indy 500 is easily my pick of those two. I'll definitely be watching. But only after the Monaco Grand Prix in the morning. Memorial Day is hands down the "Holy Grail" DAY for auto racing fans...

What Bourbon Are You Drinking Spring 2025?
Kepler replied to smokinjoe's topic in General Bourbon Discussion
How many different stores did you actually try? Did you try any small local "Mom & pop" stores? Your experience seems like common experiences when folks only shop at the "big box" retailers ... -

Started the evening with Maker's Mark PS. Then went to EW12, taking inspiration from @NDN98 's post. Good idea, as that was fantastic. Now unwinding with good old simple HH6BiB. Happy Memorial Day weekend to all you SB'ers. -

We took a 45 minute drive today to see the buffalo at Nachusa Grasslands. We were in luck. The buffalo were out in the open for a change! So, guess what I'm drinking tonight ? -
You inspired me, following your lead... EW12 in my glass now. Don't you just love that this ole' bad boy has a screw cap? I know I do.

Doing a Sbs of a couple of different Maker's Mark Private Select picks. Sometimes MM just hits the spot perfectly. -

Thanks for this excellent and thorough rundown; I shall save this for future reference for shopping sometime down the line! -

Same. -
As far as the barrells go. If you ever come across one of their 13 year Canadian rye single barrels, they are worth a purchase. But it has been a few years since they were released. There was a 14 year since then that was pretty good, but tastes like a different distillate to me.

I haven’t seen it here in Georgia, but I have purchased 2 bottles in the last couple months in South Carolina. Not sure if that indicates irregular distribution, or if my success in SC is due to old inventory. Regardless, I really like this one. -

Heck if I know. I'm pretty sure that I bought the bottle that I just killed less than a year ago. I hope so...it's a good one... Edit: it shows in stock at a couple of local LS, (Baltimore metro area) -
What rye are you drinking or purchased 2025
rzelinka replied to Mattk's topic in American Rye Whiskey
I had the Barrell Seagrass last night. Not your typical Rye, but it is a Rye nonetheless -
thank you for sharing. I enjoy good Manhattan as something different from an Old Fashioned
-
For about the same money, one would be better served to buy Barrell Bourbon and get higher proof offerings that just flat out are better bourbons in my opinion

Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked
rzelinka replied to rzelinka's topic in Premium Bourbons/Specialty Bottlings
Better to buy 3 stores picks or 4 regular double oaked for what is essentially the same price -
What bourbon did you purchase this spring season of 2025?
rzelinka replied to MSB's topic in General Bourbon Discussion
Same thing occurred for me about a month or so ago. I didn't feel terrible about paying $80 for it. Might have had buyer's remorse if I had paid secondary pricing -

Bought and opened I've been wanting to try this after reading all the good things about it. After the initial sip? Damn! This is really good!
