felthove Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Today I scrapped for 5 15YO Van Winkle's and 1 Lot B. Not a bad day. Due to one bottle limits at most stores I had to drive and call all over and even had my research assistant take a run to a store for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailor22 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 5 Bottles one at a time - that amount of dedication is heartwarming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BunkerBooze Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Just bought all the remaining bottles of the Hirsch 13yrs Selection rye. I was told that this stuff was rare and very tasty. Supposedly from the old stock of Van Winkle 13yrs rye.My Hirsch 13yrs rye has a off-white label on the front while the back label states "LOT 00-1" and also states that it was bottled by Hirsch Distillers, Lawrenceburg, Kentucky (47.8% alc/vol). Also has a black wax top closure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hectic1 Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 My first premium bourbon, Basil Hayden's. Price paid = $40 total.What happened to the Maker's Mark? I thought that based on the feedback that you were going to go Maker's and bypass the Basil Hayden...I have a bottle so I'm not hating but I think there were a number of better choices out there for $40...oh well, if you like it that's all that matters. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, before I came here at SB.com, I asked about certain bourbons to my brother-in-law, who sells wine and spirits for a living. I asked if he could get me a bottle of The Macallan and Basil Hayden's for the holidays. He didn't know what BH was, so I figured he wouldn't get it for me. He did. Stopped by today with it. $80 for both the The Macallan and the BH. Not a bad deal, since tax and the cost of picking it up was included. Before tax, the price for both were the same at $36.99 each. I couldn't tell him, "No, I don't want the BH anymore" and since I really wanted to try it, I bought it. No big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docbible Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I had a chance to run to Knoxville to pick up a few bottles on hold. WR seasoned oak parkers 40th WT tradition ORVW 23yo 114pfOpened the ORVW before leaving the store and let the manager and staff sample. It seemed to be a unanimous thumbs up. Different from the regular 23 pappy. Good oak blends well, higher proof tingles the lips but without the burn. My sinus infection doesn't allow me to pick up on the flavors the others found. Will have to revisit in a couple weeks. tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburlowski Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Picked up two WT Traditions, a couple FR Mariage 2009 (for the bunker), and a PVW 15 (because it was there).Passed on the ORVW 114.... for the price of, say, six PVW 15s, it's not worth it is my book.
