    Yep never asked what it was lol. What Jack Daniel’s. Anything good?? When I was young old number 7 was about all I knew. And never really liked it of course me and my buddies would just get it to get drunk. Lol

    Found these today

    1792 is just Barton bourbon. My favorite 1792 are the High Rye and the regular Single Barrel (beige neckband). Unfortunately I heard on these boards that they announced the High Rye is discontinued now. If true, that sucks.

    There are several different versions of EH Taylor. That small batch probably least expensive relatively.

    45$ for the small batch. I enjoy it more that BT and ER myself, and will personally go up to $60 on this.
  6. MM101 used to be cheaper than CS here in Texas. I bought my 101 when they were $34. But when the latest release of 101 came out, the price crept up above the CS. (CS is ~$38 whereas 101 is $41). Makes zero sense . The only thing I can think of, is that they slap the "limited" label on the 101. Ridiculous. Btw, Indiana must have the best bourbon prices in the entire country.
  7. I can assure you from personal experience that some picks are significantly better. I have a case from a barrel that is miles better than regular BT (much more depth and complexity). But those were purchased in 2016. But other picks I have on hand (more recent) are not necessarily better than regular BT (e.g. one pick I have has a bit too much oak tannins for my liking). In a word, I've found BT private pick barrels are all over the place profile-wise. Not consistent. But the problem with regular "shelf" BT that I've observed is that sometimes it can just taste too young and grainy for my preferences.
  8. I've also been passing on McKenna 10 left and right, all around the "new" msrp. I stored several away years ago at $26 to $30.

    For shits and giggles I called some stores. Found colonel E H Taylor. What’s a going price on this ?? Thanks.
  10. Killed a bottle of WTR101 tonight. It is not RyeDay but I don't plan to drink on Good Friday so... The bottle had a couple fo healthy pours. Watching Rugrats on TV. Not sure why.

    Chicago, Shchicago... Capone's territory. Indy should get everything before Chicago. Just saying.
  12. I get that, I know. Doesn't mean I can't pass because the current price pisses me off. Not too long ago it was $25-30. The 6 yr BIB was $11. The current 7 yr BIB is $50. I'm not bending over any more. Prost!! Phil

    Distribution here is sometimes……… I believe our proximity to Chicago might be a factor. I heard things from sales reps in the past. Trickle down effect. Gotta make sure the places in Chicago are taken care of first.
  14. I thought I had finished this bottle, but just found it hiding behind some other bottles I hadn't moved in a while.

    This might be a dumb question. But is there any source that a person can go to and see what a bottle of bourbon is going for?? Just to see if a store is to high on price?? Thanks.

    That’s what she said. Lmao. Love that show. It’s funny I looked several places for the Buffalo trace liquor store no go. Went to Walgreens there it was last bottle. Funny how that is. Thanks again to all

    What Bourbon Did You Pass On 2024

    @ThommI am with @PaulO, if the fill level is low then the whiskey is probably skunked. Personally, I wouldn;t even try it. I would just dump the contents and make the decanter a decorative piece. I have several unused decanters that I used for decorative pieces. I am just not a decanter guy.

    What Bourbon Did You Pass On 2024

    My local grocery west of Indy had a supply of HMcK10 over a 2 month period. I bought one at $53.99 retail. I bought two more bottles a few weeks later on sale at $40.49 each. I haven't seen any for a few months now. Before the recent drops, I hadn't seen any for several years.

    I was once told "You must have just fell off the turnip truck." That was my late FIL when I asked if I could marry his daughter. I asked him if he had set up a dowry. He said sure "She comes with a Plymouth Volare station wagon." Man, I miss that car.

    What did you purchase this Spring? (2024)

    West of Indy...MM $19.99-24.99, MM101 $29.99-31.99, MMCS $34.99-36.99. These prices have been consistent for the past few years. Similar to Joe, 1.75s between $34.99-$39.99.

    Look for new and different bottles to experience. House brands and BIBs are a great place to start. However, a sexy bottle or two is ok as well. If I am picking up a few bottles, I like some standard fare but also something that just piques my interest. Happy Hunting!
  22. Your reach is truly global, my friend!

    Odd prices here too @smokinjoe. Binny’s has MM101 for $36.99, and MMCS for $39.99. A decent store here has MM101 for $29.99 (been on sale for a while), and MMCS for $51.99. I just picked up a 1.75 of MM on sale at Binny’s for $39.99.

    True it’s like there’s so many now. I’m just looking for a couple to start out. I have the buffalo trace. I’ll probably stick with what they have to offer. If I can find two I’ll be happen for awhile. Lol. Everyone probably says that.
