I love cyber shopping, a few clicks of the mouse and then a knock on the door.

Here's what I got today.

They are the new label design on the export bottles.

All 700ml, 12yo and 8yo not available here in the USA.

The 81 proof is but the label is different, no 81 on the lower left just on the neck strip.

I love the 8yo I brought home from Europe. I bet that 12 is fantastic.

Whet back to the basics... Random town, random store, no expectations... Nabbed a Lot B and a ORVW at regular price off the friggin shelf.

Also, helped myself to a little RittBIB and OWA while I was at it.

Went out and bought a RHF on a whim as the price was right.The last bottle I had was fantastic and had loads of sour apple in it, I hope this bottle lives up to to its predecessor.

Conflagration. I wish I knew where to cyber shop. I miss WT 12YO so. Badly. Happy for you for scoring these, though!

Here's the link.

What I bought wasn't listed, contact Paul and ask if anything else is available.

At the bottom of the page under "Customer Service" click on "Contact Us".

BTW, ships from Japan.

Appropriately bookmarked, I am more interested in the Harper simply because it's a whisky I didn't pay much attention to back when I had the chance.

Grabbed the new Binny's FR OBSK over the weekend. I'll have to do a side by side with the previous one, which was one of my favorite bottles.

Had the day off so I went for a drive to get out of the house. I came across a rural store with EC 18 on closeout. 3 bottles for under $100 out the door? Yes please. EC 18 is not one of my favorites, but I do enjoy it from time to time and bourbon prices are only going up. I can only imagine how much the soon-to-be-released EC 21 will cost.

I stopped by Julio's Liquors to pick up a bottle of their selected FR1B OESO, to replace a bottle that's nearly finished (and I'm glad they have a few cases of it still in stock, as I don't have the budget to stock up). I really like this whiskey, and consider it a great value for $50.

While I was there, I noticed bottles of something on the bottom shelf I hadn't yet seen in Massachusetts: Mellow Corn BiB for $11.99. I picked one up to bring home as my first bottle of corn whiskey. Great label design, and tasted good when I took a little sip, I think I'm going to have some fun with this one. That bright yellow label which could have been designed in the 1940's really stands out!

Inspired by a fairly recent thread, picked up my first Willett Pot Still Reserve . . . because the bottle is just too freaking cute :lol: And the bourbon ain't bad (but yes, I know - I over-paid for the whiskey for the cute bottle)

Picked up a WTKS while out shopping. Also grabbed a bottle of Hawaiian Moonshine Okolehao that I plan on sampling tonight. While I was out I found out they started to bring in Ancient Age for 10.99. At least the price is comparable to the mainland. I told the retailer to try bring in some AAA as well.

Not necessarily a purchase but this morning as a gift for Valentines Day my girlfriend gave me a bottle of FRSmB LE 2012. I have no idea how she knew I had been keeping my eye out for one. She's a keeper.

2x Maker's Mark 1.75L

High West Double Rye

Willet Straight Rye

Eagle Rare Single Barrel

Astor's 15% off sale today brought everything down to some pretty attractive prices. I've been buying a lot of bunker bottles lately, and needed a few for immediate consumption. My last Willet Rye from Astor was really good stuff. I'm also excited to try my first High West bottle.
