jcg9779 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 PHC 2010 (127.8) for the bunker. Passed on the 27 and Golden Anniv. behind the glass. Maybe next time.Did you go to Tower on Piedmont? I was there last night - they had three PHC 2010 and I had all three in hand - at the end I put one back and took two home. I thought about the Golden Anniversary also....they have two of them, so I hope you leave one for me! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife would shoot me for spending $150 for a bottle of bourbon, but since the State of Georgia was kind enough to return all the taxes I paid them last year I think I deserve a little treat; I'll make sure to leave a Golden Anniversary for you.

politely Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 13 Lot B's and 3 PVW23's13? That's a haul and ... you should give one to me to avoid bad luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_elliott Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I was surprised by the "in your face" alcohol of Noah's Mill. To my taste, it is a very unique bourbon...not quite like anything I've tasted before. For its proof (just over 114), I was expecting something more like OGD 114, not in flavor profile but in the upfront alcohol. I did enjoy it, but I think it needs to open up (and calm down) slightly for me!White Dog, I do have one FR SmB LE open and enjoy it very much...that led to this new addition to the bunker.I ended up adding two PHC 10 YO Wheaters to the bunker today as well (I currently have one open and enjoy it very much also).At the risk of pissing Drew off I will bet dollars to doughnuts that Noah's Mill is Evan Williams BIB at barrel strength.

cigarnv Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 At the risk of pissing Drew off I will bet dollars to doughnuts that Noah's Mill is Evan Williams BIB at barrel strength.Not sure if I buy this... the Noah's is a 114 range proofer and IMO clearly exhibits far more age and complexity than the EW BIB (which is a favorite of mine). I suspect NM is a blend of several whiskeys.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMOWK Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 13? That's a haul and ... you should give one to me to avoid bad luck.I was thinking the same thing. The 13th is prepped for the draining at a friend's dinner party tonight. 13 is the perfect amount to buy, you can drink one, and still bunker a case.

Fullbuck Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 2- ORVW 10/1072- WLW 12yr1- ETLPassed on 4 of the Thomas Handy Sazerac. Is this the least desired of the BTAC because I never see any of the others in stock but this one is always there hanging? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put the Handy above the ER17 and Saz18. I just don't like most of the low proof juice, especially not for 50 bucks a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuck Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 The Handy I saw today was $67 at both locations. Is that a fair or comprable price to what you see in your area. I wanted to get some Stagg, but I may go back and get one of these to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autiger23 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Absolutely love the Handy, got a couple bottles in the bunker. Very disappointed in the Saz18 and the ER17, DEFINITELY have them lower than Handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roostercogburn Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 While I like the Saz 18 very much, I can't understand why Handy hangs around. It's a wonderful rye with a much more complex flavor palate than most ryes today. Maybe those who follow the BTAC collection in passing are turned away by the young age?
