Two more 2010 PHC. Had to have more after trying my first bottle. The bourbon is so rich and dark. Awesome wheater!

Not a purchase but I tasted some Noreaster bourbon made by Triple 8 distillery in New England, Mass perhaps (not sure where). It was at the bar at the Oyster Bar & Restaurant at Grand Central Terminal. It was very good, without any fusel or other young distillation tastes, but not quite like a "normal" bourbon either. Sort of a cross between a single malt and a young caramelly bourbon. I liked it and would like to see what it tastes like at an older age.

P.S. This was craft-distilled on site in pot stills, the taste made that clear but also it is how I interpret the label.

EWSB bottled 2000. Last bottle I had was great. $25 and change at HyVee, cheapested I've seen around here.

Who knows what I'll get on Saturday because I have a buddy hitting Binney's and calling me from there.

A friend calling you from Binny's, is a friend indeed. I dig on the EWSB 2000, too. Wonderful bourbon, at a wonderful price. :toast:

my local PA liquor store just started carrying Buffalo Trace, and it was reasonably priced. so i picked up a bottle of that since i needed an "every day bourbon" since i was down to only my supply "visitors" bottles.

I've been trying to save my pennies for the new BTAC or PHC releases but I couldn't pass on the one Pappy 15 still there at $46.99 while the multitude of Lot B's are at $43.99.

1x Lot B for $35.

4x VWFRR for $45.

1x JPS 17 for $75.

Nice score there...I would have bought all of the Lot B and VWFRR they had at those prices...

Traded for a 2010 PHC and two 750's of 2010 Weller 12.;)

Been doing some hunting in Pensacola Florida yesterday. Found a couple handles of Old Charter 12 for 24.99 and also a lot of recent, but rare, items as well.

On our hunt, I also found a boxed Hancock's Presidents Reserve with no UPC...alittle pricy, but had to grab it...

On my running around for work today I ran across a 94 barrel proof WTRB and (4) 200 ml Old Taylor 86 proof with the faux paper strip and (1) 500 ml OT 86 proofer as well. It was a very uneventful day.

I got a bottle of Booker's today. My first bottle of it. 127.9 proof and 7 years, 0 months old. Excellent bourbon straight or with a splash of water. A keeper for sure!

Two bottles of Templeton Rye at Wal-Mart of all places. $32.99. There are a lot of bozo's around here are paying $50 or more. Probably drink one and give one away for Christmas.

Anyone else use the excuse of holidays getting close to justify buying extra bottles if you find a deal?

Finally! A local store is now "carrying" Four Roses products. The quotes are due to the fact that there is a spot on the shelf for it, but none has actually made it to the shelf yet. Their allocation: 1 bottle of FRSmB and 4 bottles of Yellow Label. :slappin:

After inquiring about the 4R1B at the store, they called me back (amazing in itself!) to say they were able to get bottles for $44. A little pricey I thought, so I only ordered 1. I'm going to pick it up tomorrow or Friday, along with 3 bottles of Yellow Label. They made me pay by credit card over the phone today before they promised to order any.

Oh the pains we go through to obtain bottles...

2 bottles Elijah Craig 12 online for about $27 each... in Germany! That's less than the Binny's price, so I'm pleased. Also bought some Dolin vermouth and French brandy-marinated cherries for better Manhattans as prescribed in the the Manhattan thread near the top of the Cocktails forum right now.

Still hoping to get some good rye, though. Will probably order a Rittenhouse soon, as I've never tried it. And I haven't had me a Presbie in a while...
