Nice fireside companions at Tahoe.

[yountvillewjs]

2 x Ritt BiB. The shelf life on these is short and with the switch coming up, I'm trying to go two-fer

[jeanraulmitchell]

2 Smooth Ambler Very Old Scout 14yo

[Brisko]

Stopped by my local shop to pick up some Leinie's Summer Shandy for the Admiral, only to find that they are sold out. A bottle of Ritt BiB found its way into my hands though.

A few more cheapos with Old Charter 101 and VOB 90 (the BIB was out of stock). Unfortunately, the JTS Brown BIB was also out of stock. Bummer!

[Crowes]

EC 18. Very interested to try this.

[Bmac]

Another EC 18yr ( I finally cracked this open and it was amazing! Dangerously smooth with zero alcohol burn.)

Another JPS 18yr Batch 14

EHCT Barrel Strength

I finally located a bottle of the new Larceny bourbon. I'm looking forward to tasting this one.

[MyOldKyDram]

Finally found one too! $15 after the mail-in rebate.

[savagehenry]

Finally picked up a Noah's Mill, will taste it soon. And another ETL.

[WAINWRIGHT]

Larceny today for $23.00 plus the $10 mail in rebate,I hope the hype fulfills the product's quality because I sure can't argue with the price.

Total Wine Dallas had Watkins Select in. An inexpensive young Bourbon rated Gold by San Fran Spirits competition. Working thru some open bottles before I give it a try.

NKY trip tonight. CnB OWA #61 8 yrs old in a liter bottle. Larceny 1.75 $39.99 + $20.00 rebate, TPS OWA #28(love that they're numbering now), TPS AAA. Jay told me that BT is no longer offering AAA in the single barrel selections, sad.

[Old Lamplighter]

First HW Double Rye! Was not overly impressed with Rendezvous but have enjoyed the Bourye better with each pour,

[compliance]

Picked up a Larceny and was finally tempted by Handy. Will probably open the Larceny pretty soon while watching the ND game.

I heard the same last night. I have alway liked the AAA TPS selections.

I picked up Watkins a couple months ago (I think I paid $12 with tax), and wasn't impressed (although for the price, I didn't expect to be). It was incredibly smooth, which isn't an attribute I particularly care for in my bourbon - but if you like really smooth whiskey, give it a go.

Picked up the last Parkers Herritage Collection Congac Finished Bourbon available in Australia (one of our retailers imported a small amount - this was the last bottle). At $140 it wasn't cheap, but it will make an interesting talking point to share on tasting nights.

[smokinjoe]

I figured I'd get my KBF bourbon buying campaign off to a start. Picked up a bottle of BT ($19.99 is a good price in these parts), and a bottle of Whistle Pig (First time I've seen it in these parts). I'm already a buck down, and I ain't even left town, yet.

[MyOldKyDram]

Didn't buy but was "gifted" a BTEC 19 yo Giant French Oak Barrel.

My gf had stopped at the store to see if there was anything new. While looking she was approached by another customer looking for help. A Texan looking to stock up on bourbon before heading back home. Well, apparently he bought everything she recommended and then some. She didn't find anything to take home, but on the way out he handed her the BTEC as a thank you. Not sure if there was any Indecent Proposal action or not but either way, free whiskey for me!

Now THAT is a great story. Free bourbon is always great, but free bourbon from a deep-pocketed Texan, via your bourbon-knowledgable girlfriend has got to taste twice as nice.
