New Years resolutions for 2014?

[TunnelTiger]

My New Years resolution is to "stockpile", not "bunker" every bottle of OGD114, ETL, and Henry McK BIB before someone starts messing with it.

Amen

[upStomp]

I hadn't planned on any resolutions this year, but stockpiling sounds good. :grin:

Maybe a case or 2 of all my standards that are (as of now) easy to find.

I plan to drink more bourbon.

[jwacky]

I would like to focus more on bourbons that aren't necessarily 'rare' but that aren't available locally.

I second that resolution!

I like this one - requires travelling and exploring! (Okay, or paying crazy shipping charges, so I'll just stick with travel)

I resolve to continue reducing my single bottle supplies by determining what I like most, and replacing thus emptied bottles with duplicates of those I prefer.

+1 - I'll sign onto that.

I think I need to go on a bourbon buying moratorium for a while and drink the stuff I've got...

1. Spend more judiciously.

2. Share more freely.

Dr. Bob, you are onto something here, I think. I need to do the same, I guess. My resolution is to replace only the Bourbons I really do like alot. My problem is that I like so many ALOT that I may actually increase my stash. Ahhh, the hell with it. My new resolution s to enjoy whatever I pour! That's a resolution I can keep!

Buy weller 12 every month whether I need or not. Figure I have till middle of the year at best before I is gone forever

None of the Big Three in my cabinet (AAA, VOB, OWA) is available in OH so I stock up while traveling. With AAA becoming 100% angels' share and VOB going NAS, I may need to decide on a new Big Three. Still, the principle applies. It ain't necessary for bourbon to be a limited release for it to have limited availability. In, '14, we'll be stocking up on the sub-$30 AS bourbons in anticipation of the unfortunate trend.

I'm going to drink more 4yr old rye-recipe bourbon, since that seems to be all that's left.

that's exactly what I was gonna put!

I think I will aim for a goal of 5 cases stockpiled in the garage, creating my own whiskey glut. I have two now

[squire]

I'm buying a case of 6 year green label 90 proof Heaven Hill. Then I'm gonna buy another.

Now, that's funny. My next case will be just that. I never, ever, hear anyone on here even talk about HH 6 90, let alone talk about stockpiling it.

How much is HH6 90 down in MS, Squire? it's $8.99 here, minus a 5% case discount

As cheap as it is, it is rather good, and I always thought the 6 year 90 had a really catchy classy label, but only on the 750 size bottles

My resolution is to keep forum threads on topic so they all don't turn into tangential conversations between a couple of people.

you should just merge all the threads anyway......90% of them turn into age stated discussions and shortages

That would be just about every thread. You'll have your work cut out...wait, am I doing it now?

[BFerguson]

I'd like to get back to Louisville and enjoy the town and surrounding area again. Of course the means distillery visits.

Great food, nice people, and lots of bourbon.

My main resolution for the new year is a visit to the Bourbon Trail in the fall for my 50th birthday, and saving enough to bring home some nice bottles from the gift shops. Already in the planning stages. Until that happens, I plan to enjoy and share more of my open bottles, and stockpile some that I'm concerned about becoming more rare or losing their age statements, like W12 and ETL.

My resolution is to do a better job hiding whisky purchases from my wife.
