spinningrecords Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Bravo to SKU for taking the bull by the horns to reach out and ask some of the questions on many of our minds.In the past, I've sent a couple e-mails to Julian with a few questions about some of his labels and where I should look to buy them. His answers were very helpful and I was able to get the products I wanted including a pair of those special edition decanters. (One down, one to go) Although I haven't felt the need to reach out since, I very much appreciated his willingness to share with me.I'll add I called KBD last December and ended up talking with Drew about a barrel selection and he answering my numerous questions over the course of a hour. The conversation was very helpful and I'm working to get a trip together in the fall to make that selection at KBD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p_elliott Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I think Preston was right about one thing the comments about him and Julian were uncalled for. They have been members on here for a long time and have always tried to answer members questions when asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
