What Bourbon Did You Purchase Today? Summer 2013

[grantsi]

FR SB 2013 LE and ( the wild card )....Angels Envy Rye.

Man, I am going to make your day. You got 6.25 liters! (3) 1.75s and (1) 1 liter. Do you like the BT Bourbon Cream?

I obviously dove into one of those 1.75's before I started calculating. I do like the BT Bourbon Cream. It's got more of a caramel flavor to it then other similar liqueurs. I'll have a little sip every now and then to quench a craving for something sweet. Other than that I'll put it on ice cream or in coffee. I'm not much of a mixologist, but I imagine it would be pretty good replacing any cream/chocolate/coffee liqueur in a mixed drink.

Just picked up a case of Kirkland's (has become my go-to mid-shelfer), as well as a handle each of BT and Old Forester Signature.

I randomly saw a WT American Spirit in a gas station in a weird part of town. I actually said "What the f&ck?" out loud. They also had a bottle of Louis XIII for under a $1000, which is the cheapest I've ever seen it. I asked the person at the counter how long they'd had it, and she said it was there when she started working there 10 years ago.

It's like 3 grand now. Shoulda bought it and started a Facebook exchange :smile:

[Jackinbox]

My first ever bottle of Booker's.

[KDM]

While out of state I grabbed some value pours: Fighting Cock, OWA, 4R yellow label, don't see these on the shelves in PA

[savagehenry]

Grabbed an OGD114 for the first time in almost a year.

Didn't love the first bottle, but I was still fairly new to bourbon at the time.

Pretty good haul there sir!

Pretty good haul there sir!

It's been like Christmas in July today. I haven't been this happy since I first tried GTS, and that includes my wedding in May.

[MyOldKyDram]

Well that's a love they write songs about right there.

your wife is obviously not a SB member.......

[bingstein]

your wife is obviously not a SB member.......

She understands. She was there for the GTS experience. She's not offended except when my stash invades her closet space.

[Jag]

My first bottle of Eagle Rare 10 year, quite tasty.

[Bootlegger1929]

Binnys selected ETL. Sipping now. Good stuff especially for the price.

[RocknRoll]

Couple days ago ...

Grabbed a 1792 to test drive

WT101 returns to the lineup after an extended absence

Jeffers Creek ... it's like the 3rd bottle in the last 6 months, not sure why. It's an age stated 6yrs, 80 proofer small batch. Nothing special that I've noticed about it, but for some reason I keep drinkin' it. I have yet to actually visit with it and I'm not sure I want to as I might decide that it really sucks.

[bllygthrd]

Found and picked up my second bottle of EC12 BS ... now I can crack one open and put the second in the "stash".

Will do, plan on splitting it up the first 3 days. Will first try neet, then over rocks, and finally with a splash of water. Coming from being on the dark side for forty years I prefer my scotch on the rocks. Going to be a great long weekend!
