What bourbon did you purchase today? Fall 2010

[SMOWK]

Still hoping to get some good rye, though. Will probably order a Rittenhouse soon, as I've never tried it.

[sgtgto]

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

I picked up another Maker's 46 today while re-uping on cough drops, cough syrup and antihistamines. Tomorrow will be day number seven and hopefully I'll feel like having a drink tomorrow night.

Drinking the Ritt BIB right now. Great stuff. There are always a few on hand. I have yet to see a "drought" of the stuff, but I'm prepared.

Problem is, I'm in Germany, so it's a bit tougher to find. Cheapest I've seen online is €20 (about $28) before shipping, which is usually another €5-7 per order. I've spent well over €200 online in booze just in the last 2 days, so I don't want to place another big order... and €25 or $35 for a bottle of Rittenhouse seems too steep!

Found some Eagle Rare (10/90) for $24 in Wisconsin. Since that is about $8 cheaper than I usually see here in KY, I picked it up.

Stopped at a local store today to pick up some beer for a neighborhood party tonight, and decided I'd grab up an EC12 to take with me. Another wonderful $20 pour. In other news, Pappy has hit the shelves, but the prices are whacked. Lot B = $57, 15 yr. = $70, 20 yr.= $100 (decent price), 23 yr. = $300, 10 yr/90 pr. = $39, 10 yr/107 = $50. I'll wait, and look elsewhere to get my fix.

Those are horrible prices. Still not Rye ehh?

I grabbed a ER 10/90. It's been awhile.

When the wife goes on a trip I usually get a new bottle of bourbon to help deal with the stress of taking care of the kids alone, today I though I would try OF Signature.

Picked up the PH 10yo wheat. I like it with ice, it does have a burn. There is one still left on the shelf in the cellar at McScrooges. I only mention in hopes someone picks it up before i get back. My name is Tim and I have a bourbon addiction. Step one complete

[ggilbertva]

Picked up an '08 Julio's RHF from a friend in an even swap from something in my bunker.

I finally found some Pappy 15 and 20, a bottle of GTS, and picked up a bottle of Willet in the "I Dream of Jeanie" bottle.

[WsmataU]

Major score (for me) in MD! I found a bottle of very old fitz (12 yr) from the heritage collection for only $27.

[Skunk]

ran out of weller 107 and grabbed a vob 86. yes we're living bottle to bottle.

Could be worse - it might be 50ml bottles. Although you didn't say it WASN'T 50's...

[Skunk]

No it's 750's. We're having fun and that's all that counts.

[B.B. Babington]

...We're having fun and that's all that counts.

exactly right! I'm glad you're enjoying it. For some, it becomes an obsession to have the grandest collection; for others, it becomes a job and then a chore. As long as it's fun, all is good.

I just killed a Weller 107 myself. That was fun.

Amen! If it isn't enjoyable, no sense in bothering.

My problem is that the ones I like best are sometimes the hardest to find. Thank goodness, not everything I like is hard to find!

For instance, a Baby Saz and an EC18 have both died by my hand just recently...

[lrochau]

Picked up some Fighting Cock and Weller 12 on Friday.

[Vosgar]

Bought an OWA with the age statement today. I've read the back and forth commentary on NAS vs age stated and only know that I have both and enjoy both. However, I figured it can't hurt to buy the older version when I see it.

[M14Shooter]

Yes, of course you did, you are in KY.

Here in MI we did all we could do to reject Canadian whiskey.
