What Bourbon Did You Purchase today? - Summer 2012

[mosugoji64]

Busy day. The wife wanted me out of the house for a couple hours so she could clean. She gave me $100 to head north and buy some whiskey. Picked up:

ER 10

ETL

Weller 12

OWA

KC Reserve

Willet Rye

JPS 18

I now have two batches of JPS 18 (14 & 18) - Side by side a thought the 14 was slightly better. Also going to do my first SB blend. By the way, what does SB stand for???

You got all of that with $100?!? Where are you shopping? :grin: Oh, and congrats for having such a cool wife. Wish mine would send me out with a directive to buy whiskey!

Solely because I now can, I went to my local whiskey monger and picked up a HW Doublerye! yesterday. Yep, as of yesterday Aug. 12 at 12:30 PM, we can now buy booze on Sundays in my county.

No kidding. If my wife gave me a $100 to buy whiskey to leave the house while she cleaned it, I would drop dead from immediate heart failure. Savagehenry must be a love machine.

It's a wonderful thing, isn't it Joe? :toast:

It sure is! And just because, I'm going back NEXT Sunday, too!

I forgot that this Sunday was the first eligible one! I was a little worried about the re-vote for "unincorporated Cobb County", but glad our fellow citizens saw the light! I did my shopping on Saturday, but may need to head out next Sunday "just because"

Picked up two bottles of Michters 10yr Batch 8 and two bottles of the wheated Vintage 17 during my travels for the weekend!

The "Supreme Bodacious" blend... I like it!

I used some of my owe $ as well. The first 4 on the list went on her dime.

Picked up some special bottles of EC12 today.

Hit a few stores in Texas, but the only interesting thing I saw was a 1 L OWA 107 in a new label (unfortunately can't take it with me on the plane, so had to pass). Wound up picking up a half pint of Kentucky Deluxe and a 50 ml bottle of Old Forester, which should at least relieve some of the boredom I'm facing tonight working at the hotel

Generally you can take whiskey on the plane. You have to put it in your checked luggage. Each airline may be a bit different, but American allows 5 liters of alcohol in checked luggage. Let me know if you're anywhere near Austin!

A 2012 FR SB LE signed by Rutledge from K&L and a High West Campfire. I'm excited, Rutledge is the man.

I'm just north of Dallas until Friday. I forgot about checking luggage (duh!) as I usually travel light on business. Thanks for the reminder - if I see something I've got to have, at least I have an option!

buy a suitcase! :grin:

While in Breckenridge I picked up a couple of bottles of Breckenridge Bourbon. It is actually very tasty for a two year old Bourbon.

[MyOldKyDram]

Not bourbon, but I did find a couple bottles of WT 101 Rye.

[LostBottle]

Not bourbon, but I did find a couple bottles of WT 101 Rye.

One of my favorite value pours. Hopefully they bring it back someday.

[hectic1]

Did a little hunting today and found a couple things worth bringing home.

[MauiSon]

Big Buy - Blanton's ($33), Rare Breed ($33), Willett Rye 5yr ($34x2), RittBiB ($24). I don't know why Blanton's is so low here, but since it is I can't resist.

Willett Family Estate Single Barrel Rye - 5YO, Barrel #78, Bottle 36/192, 110 proof and I'm going back for more tomorrow.

[p_elliott]

That is a great price on the Blanton's. Not too shabby a RB price, either.
