Tico Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'd go EH Tornado or PHC 5th. I do like the Vintage 17 but it seems widely available where as the Tornado and PHC are more limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightNoChaser Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Vintage Bourbon 17 yearFour Roses Single Barrel (not the LE)PHC 5th EditionI'd pick up any of these three. Most likely I would get the 4R since I'm currently out. Got a bottle of the Vb17 already and the PHC is a tad pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgageus Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I would eliminate the 4R and Garrison form the list. You can get the 4R anytime, and Garrison is a micro, not saying its bad, I actually have high hopes, but is young and expensive and relatively easy to get in TX. I have wanted to head to Nye for a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weller_tex Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Yeah the Garrison is expensive. All the bars that carry it are a good ways from me, and hard to have time to go try it at a bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosugoji64 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 The VB 17 is tempting since it's a wheater.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronWF Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I would probably go with the PHC cognac. I only briefly tasted the Tornado, but I've spent quite a bit of time with the PHC and I... covet it.You gotta get both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have certainly read good things about it..the PHC I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wine65 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Lots of great choices, I'd go with EH Taylor Tornado as its limited and I really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timd Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 It's not just expensive. It's awful bourbon. I'll second that - anybody wants a bottle of their earlier release, I may know somebody willing to part with some Oh, and it's not easy to find, either - actually very limited, but in this case that's a GOOD thing! :hot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
