Old Lamplighter Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Late yesterday, received a wonderful 4RSB, 17yo, OBSV, Sept '12 bottle commemorating the visitor center. This came to me via a pvt collector who occasionally will offer me special bottle. Cost was a bit higher than I would've liked...but, they not ever going to get cheaper & at middle age I have begun to ask: Why not? & Why wait?

MyOldKyDram Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 That is really good bourbon, and probably underpriced at the distillery truth be told. So I wouldn't worry about that too much. Just enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awachatz Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Picked up a couple bottles of Four Roses OBSK 14yr 2mo from the gift shop yesterday...I really enjoy these well aged offerings from Jim R as they're very different from the other FR's bottles. I also took delivery of the rest of the Willett bottles from our selections last sampler...KBD certainly doesn't break any land speed records for bottling but they have some great bourbon in house. I added 3 bottles of 8yr wheated and 1 more 9yr Rye'd bourbon! :cool:Man Bob, I would love to have tried that 8 yr Wheated Willett. Was going to make a visit to Binny's to get something similar, but saw they were already sold out.Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2 Edited January 13, 2013 by awachatz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berto Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 PHC6 and KCSB. The PHC6 I blame on the fine folks here, I was wavering and y'all talked me into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwacky Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Funny that I just asked about 'private selections' yesterday, as I swung by BevMo to see if they had any 2002 EWSB left. One bottle, so I grabbed it: The last two bottles I'd gotten there (with bottled on dates of my daughter's exact birth date, hence them being undrinkable for now!) were not private selections... weird. Also, the label mistakenly says it was bottled on 9-7-02... either innocent human error or I got hosed on some five month old bourbon, LOL!

SFS Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Weird that I see the previous post, when coming here for this post. 9/7 is my birthday.Today I bought a 2008 OFBB that went into barrels on 9/6/95, so I'm treating it as MY birthday bourbon.

Bourserker Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 375 ml of Blantons last Friday. For some reason they have recently gotten those here at $21.90 per bottle while the 750 ml is $52-ish a bottle...go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to see something in Virginia that isn't overpriced (compared to MD). I thought I was finished shopping for a while after stocking up on OGD BIB And ETL recently, but it looks like I'll be making another trip this weekend.

I'm pretty sure those had to be used by the end of 2012, unfortunately.Either way that's very good. There's no better time to hoard the EWSB 2002!
