nd2005 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 The occasion was that I don't visit often enough, so these had been stockpiled over quite some time haha... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourbon is meant to be shared and enjoyed and he gave you a great gift.

mbroo5880i Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I bought my first bottle of Four Roses Single Barrel today. I purchased it at Meijer for $29.99. Thank you to my friends, Jackinbox and Old Dusty, for the heads up and their recommendation. I was actually impressed by their selection. I opted for FRSB over Knob Creek Single Barrel, which was $32.99. I could only select one or risk the wrath of Mrs. mbroo. I have tried it neat and on the rocks. All I can say is wow!

sutton Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Thank you sir! I've been trying a lot of the mid- lower- shelf lately ... and questioning why I'm spending so much on the upper shelf! Maybe the hot weather? Of course, when the weather turns colder again, my habits will likely change back ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P&MLiquorsEric Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Ultra Small Batch #2 sounds like really, really, exclusive stuff.Would that be better than or worse than a single barrel of BT? Or did they select a number of barrels, blend them and claim it to be "ultra"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasquatch Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Got a case of Old Forester Single Barrel last night. It's the first barrel available for sale and exceptional for the price. Baby Birthday Bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Comp Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Got a case of Old Forester Single Barrel last night. It's the first barrel available for sale and exceptional for the price. Baby Birthday Bourbon.Interesting...and the price was? I myself was out of Barton BIB for a whole week :bigeyes: but the 2 mile trip to my local Binny's last night and $15 (damn Cook County taxes) took care of that.

Sasquatch Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Around $35 a bottle with tax and a case discount. My bottles were picked by the Kentucky Bourbon Society, your mileage may vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
