What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Spring 2013

[T Comp]

Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve for $45.99. Could'a fooled me that its 120 proof since it goes down so easy. Great bourbon, but at this price I may not buy another.

Where would that 'worth it for regular purchases' line be for you and KCSB?

If you could get it for, say, $35.99, would that change your long-term commitment prospects?

(I will admit that this is not entirely hypothetical in my case).

Yes, at $35.99 I would definitely buy it again. Not having a lot of disposable income I can't afford to "splurge" like this very often. My price range for bourbon is generally $30 or less.

Eric, That's a price a bit on the high side...it's $39.99 here and and sometimes on sale for less....but at 9 years and almost barrel proof...not out of line with recent releases...such as the recent Russell's Reserve, CEH Taylor and EC 12. Why some are loading up on the bargains that are left.

No, it isn't a ridiculous price, just more than I can afford to buy regularly. Very good whiskey!

I picked up a WTRye101 today for $25. He only had the one bottle, and kind of hidden on the top shelf at that-- I almost missed seeing it.

Just now bought GTS and THH 2012 and also found two PHC without barrel labels?! I think it is 2012 though. Wonder if it is safe to assume it is the first round bottling.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure all the label issues were on the 1st dump. One of my 1st dump bottles was double labeled.

Got a high west campfire and Weller antique 107 for a camping trip next week. Tried a swig of each. Lots of peat in the campfire and the Weller is great. Might be a go to soon. Love me some Weller 12 yr.

Great. Thanks. Then I have the first two dumps of PHC2012 which some said are the better two.

Got some Four Roses Small Batch ('regular' release) yesterday... really enjoyed it.

[DEK]

Two 1.75's of Weller 12. For those of you living in the Louisville area, the W.L Weller 12 has landed.

[higgins]

Picked up a bottle of Baker's. It's not a regular purchase, but it's one that I like a lot.

[justataste]

Just scored a bottle of the Elijah Craig barrel proof for only 29.99! I had not been planning to purchase this but when I saw the price I just had no choice. ;-)

So, I heard this was not good on ice, so should I just add a splash of water? Thanks for any thoughts.

[squire]

I have no problem drinking whisky either over ice or with water and determining for myself how I like it.

[justataste]

You know Squire, I think I will try both! What will it hurt?

[balassit]

Landed a Parker's Heritage today. 139.4 proof. Can't wait to try it.

[awachatz]

Nice. The 139.4 is my favorite bottling of PHC 12.

In an attempt to be optimistic I picked up a bottle of the regular EC12 to compare to the barrel strength. Even though I don't have the ECBS yet...

Also picked up an OWA for the GBS blend and a local store selected FR single barrel OBSV at 100 proof and 9 years, 2 months. Was able to get a taste before and it seemed to be pretty good!

[Tucker]

Picked up a store selected FR 1B. Standard OBSV 100 proof. First purchase of 2013.
