I'm Most Ashamed I've Never Tried...

[393foureyedfox]

Any of the other HH offerings other than the 6yr.BIB and the Black and Gold label BIB.I feel I might be missing out on some decent value pours such as the Green label 90 proofer,who knows?

i snuck a green HH 90 in on a blind tasting earlier this year. many of my friends are long time bourbon lovers, and many of them put this one in the top 2.

i like em stronger than that, but when my local pharmacy was d/cing it and i could get handles of it for $9 with a $3 rebate, i bought one for when those guys come over.

the good thing about liking strong whiskies is that your friends leave them alone....

I wouldn't say I'm an Ezra fan so much as I'm an HH fan. I don't expect much of Ezra so I'm never disappointed but sometimes I'm very agreeably pleased.

I love the Ezra 7/101. Alas I can't find it around these parts anymore.

i wanted to love it, but i was just indifferent. at its price, others will take precedent

id have to say i put OWA 107 on the list of stuff ive wanted to try but havent. i always want to try it when i see the 107 proof label, but i pass by it thinking "wheater". one day i may see it at a bar and get a shot and then decide.

a couple weeks ago id have said OWA and FC103. i finally got myself to try the FC103 though, and have been glad i did. nice taste and feels hotter than 103 proof.

Any Jim Beam product. It's never caught my attention. Devil's Cut has me intrigued though.

Go for Knob Creek, Baker's, Booker's, and Jim Beam Black before Devil's Cut.

And don't neglect Old Grand Dad

Ah, thanks for the advice. I may have to pick up the OGD 114 next time I see it.

How about an OWA/FC103 'baby blend of mashbills'?

+2 on that. KC, Baker's, Bookers and OGD 114 are all first rate IMHO. Agree that Devil's Cut is awful.

+3, those are all at the top of my list of liked things. Bookers being highest

ive not tried devils cut either

[squire]

I started to say I have little interest in Devil's Cut but actually I have none.

I'd definitely grab one of those! And you can find the KC, Bakers, Bookers in 50 mL. I like KC and Bookers well enough to own . . . 1 50 mL bottle of each

I'm most ashamed I've never tried ... the SB Blend.

Bourbon selection in Canada ain't what is should be. Ontario received a big allotment of Weller 12 last year, but OWA has never been seen here. The W12 is all gone from LCBO shelves, but I managed to bunker a few bottles. Next trip to the US I'm going to bring back some OWA so I can see what all the fuss is about.

[DrBob]

Also never tried the SB blend, Finally got some Weller 12, but the only bottle of antique that I have is a single barrel select so wondering if I ought to grab an off the shelf standard bottle for the experiment.

I have about 70 bottles of bourbon,and have cracked open about a dozen. I usually feel guilty when i buy a bunker bottle without even having tried the whiskey... Did this just last night when i bought a second bottle of Rare Breed. got home and immediately had a pour to make sure I was happy with the decision.

[oke&coke]

+1 on that.

Devil's Cut is, well, awful.

Didn't you read the article? Devil's cut is one of the top ten bourbons to try before you die.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[squire]

If I'm about to die rushing around after Bourbon isn't on my list.

[GaryT]

If I'm about to die rushing around after Bourbon isn't on my list.

If I knew it was coming, drinking through the best of my bunker would be the order of the day

[squire]

Didn't say I'd meet the end sober.

There are a several common pours that I haven't tried. However, I can't say that I am ashamed. I don't believe that I have ever had any Jim Beam labels. I have had other Beam products but no Jim Beam labels. I have never had Booker's. There are also higher end bourbons that I haven't tried but I either can't find them or can't afford them.

[sutton]

As was said up thread, can't try what you can't find in your area. Not "ashamed", but would like to try a EW White Label or a FC103. Recently found an Old Heaven Hill 8 yo that I'm looking forward to trying -

to me, EWW tastes nearly identical to HH white 6 year BIB.

the FC103 is worth trying. i resisted for quite a while, thinking it would taste like all the other 100ish proof HH stuff. its similar, but, to me at least, has less of the HH house taste and feels a bit hotter than 103 proof. I plan to buy it again.
