Did you find AA 10 year in Iowa? :skep:

[shyster512]

Got a bottle of Blanton's bottled for McScrooge's, and a bottle of 12 year Very Special Old Fitz. Never had the the Fitz before. Pondering which bottle I'l open to watch basketball games with.

Yes. I was surprised. I had to do a quadruple take to make sure I wasn't being fooled by 10-star.

[Jwilly019]

Picked up a bottle of EWSB 2000 earlier today from a store that still has a few bottles left. Having the first pour now and enjoying it quite a bit.

[squire]

A bottle of Sazerac Rye, the young expression.

[Master_Photog]

Picked up multiple bottles of these!!

[hectic1]

If that's the Party Source OWA let it open up before you pass judgement. I did not like it when I first tried it, but the more air it got the better it became.

It is...with all wheaters I normally opened them and have a pour or two. Then I put it back on the shelf for a couple weeks to let them breath a little...I've learned this many times over that IMO ALL wheaters get better with some time open in the bottle.

Really? I thought it was good right away, but if it improves that's even better. After my second pour I think it's probably the best Antique I've tasted since the Lousiville days.

A single barrel OWA from a store here in Chicago, Kenwood Liquors, that tommyboy donated to me, after my wife tried to abscond with it , is awfully goood too. But relating the Party Source version to gold veined Louisville certainly gets my attention. However this weeks budget has already been blown by JDSB, BT SB from the aforementioned Kenwood and thanks to a Ralfy video, a Mount Gay extra old.

Well maybe I was being too generous, I quite frankly wasn't a fan of the standard Frankfort Antique neither the 7year nor the NAS. Sure they were decent bourbon, but I think this Single Barrel lets some unique flavors show whereas the standard buries them with it's vatting.

I conducted a side by side tasting with new/unopened bottles of OWA NAS, regular and PS SB. All four of us preferred the regular bottling that night. The PS bottling was too hot/showing much alcohol while the regular had a wonderful carmel sweetness with some depth to it. Now, several months later, the regular bottling is still as good. The PS bottle is much richer and has more layers of flavor that incorporate the 107 proof very well.:yum:

So, if you like it now that's fantastic. I'll be adding more to my stash soon.

Man...you're lucky I didn't catch you on my side of town...

I have a couple bottles of Kenwood's OWA and WSR...for $20 and $17 it's good stuff and one of my everyday pours. :cool: I'm going to have Tom over here soon for a tasting...let me know if you're interested in making the trip.

[squire]

Either Old Grand Dad BIB or some vermouth for Manhattans, or both.

My Party Source order arrived today - Old Fitz Very Special 12 yr. and Very Old Barton BIB - I haven't had either one before and haven't see them sold in Georgia.

My buddy picked up a bottle of 2010 GTS for me this week and it should be here today (currently on the FedEx truck for delivery).

I also picked up two PHC 10 yr. for my bunker.

Found my first BTAC this weekend. Some WLW. Can someone point me in the right direction to determine what year it is? I can't seem to find anything.

Check the BTAC info thread Andy. Whatever year it is, it's good. :grin: Joe
