P&MLiquorsEric Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I rarely shop for bourbon anymore but I was at one of the better Louisville liquor stores that is still locally owned and picked up a bottle of Abraham Bowman millennium edition. Didn't know it was available in KY. Hopefully there is some left so I can sell it at store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snagged one and left the rest, but to your point i figured it a fluke and not to be found around here again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grain Belt Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Somewhere towards the opposite end of the spectrum, I picked up a PET traveler of Barton Ten High. This is the straight bourbon, not the "Bourbon, a Blend" garbage. And I can't find an age statement on it so I guess it is four years old. By the looks of it, it may be old stock that was sitting in a distributor's warehouse. At least, it probably predates '09 when the bourbon blend hit the market.So, semi-dusty. Cracked it open and it smells very Barton. A little hot on the tongue (okay, pretty hot) but not entirely unpleasant. Considering it was $5.99 for a 750 ml, well, not bad.:grin: I have been doing the same exact thing a few hours north of you. The only packaging I have seen the real deal straight bourbon Ten High in is the PET 750 traveler. All the glass bottles 1L and 1.75's are that terrible blend. I have been buying them for about $6.50. One store in town has about 4-5 left at my count. I have enjoyed a few ginger ales and Ten Highs on the pontoon this summer in the 90 degree heat. Very refreshing and not too bad on the pocket either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone finds an extra they would be willing to ship or an online retailer selling it I would be much obliged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I didn't buy anything today but scored a bottle of ECBP earlier in the week thanks to the generosity of a fellow SB member. Thank you, Jackinbox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Santana Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 My wife wanted a new bottle of rum and actually urged me to go to the liquor store. Got a Four Roses Small Batch and a bottle of Old Forester. Oh yeah, and the rum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorgemu1 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks to some members here, I was finally able to pick up a couple of bottles of the 4R SBLE 2013 while in Nashville this weekend. Also picked up OFBB 2013 as a gift. I wanted to pick up some more but I'm holding out that I'll find them here GA once they hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Variable Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 A bottle of Beam Black. Something different.A family size of BB as well for me. Gonna try to make the blueberry bourbon recipe somebody posted elsewhere on the forum over the weekend. If the recipe does not work out, at least I'll have some BB left over. Beam Black is not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Another KCSB and EWSB, as I have found both to be very solid this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
393foureyedfox Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Another KCSB and EWSB, as I have found both to be very solid this year.the KCSB is far better than the EWSB to me, but it is not fair to compare 120 proof to....what is ewsb.....86.6? I think EW BIB is better than EWSB, but i just generally dont like sub 100 proofers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justataste Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Since a lot of folks here like 4RYL I picked up a 750 to try. To balance it out, I also grabbed a Booker's. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
