I bought a few bottles of K&L Faultline today. I know I'm late to the party, but been hearing good things and wanted to see for myself.

Purchased 2 bottles of EWSB 2004 from the local grocery store. They had done a barrel selection recently. This one tasted more vanilla and toffee, and less peppery than the standard EWSB 04 I had recently.

Grabbed an OWA with a price increase of $2 to $25. Not happy, but at least they still have it. Also grabbed a 375 of MM for no good reason other than that I haven't had it in a long time and wanted to compare another wheater.

Hit Specs in Dallas and picked up two bottles of Four Roses Single Barrel. (last one didn't last very long!)

Also picked up a couple of bottles of EWB. I am a lucky man, EWB is one of my favorites no matter what the price, and it costs less than $17 for 1.75l.:grin:

Picked these two up yesterday. Never tried OGD114 but from various member's tasting notes, it seems like something I would like. I'm not a huge Elmer T Lee fan but it was the last bottles left in the general area so I'll stash it in the bunker

And today was a nice Four Roses kind of a day, store said I'm the first customer to get their store/restaurant select OBSF 10 year 8 month 60.2%. They were literally just opening up their cases. And much to my surprise, they also received their allocation of 2014 Limited Edition OESF 11 year. My bottle is 54.8% from warehouse HW, Barrel 47-1I.

That's strange, either I should stop sipping permanently since all the images are correct on my computer but on my phone it's upside down!

I bought a bottle of Baby Saz ($27.99) and Eagle Rare 10 ($32.99). I may open the Eagle Rare 10 tonight, as I've never tried it. I will be saving the Baby Saz for later!

I picked up 2 bottles of Bourye right outside Fort Leavenworth while training, and my wife picked me up a ECBP 66.6 the past 2 weeks. My wife does not like bourbon at all, but she definitely knows what I like.

I contend that I am HH's single biggest customer of Larceny, as I have again reloaded with another Family Size bottle...:D. Now, you know the reason why they can't attain full US distribution of this, yet... :lol: However, I'm a little ashamed to admit that I have used more aliases than "Fletch" in order to get the rebates...I'm going to try John Coctostan, next...;)

I maintain this is the most underrated releases of the last 2 years. Don't doubt that the 92 proof has held it back on the popularity scale but fine with me. One I do agree with on Jim Murray who among other things says "A high quality, stunningly adorable whiskey, pulsing with elegance and personality. Every drink cabinet should have this wonderful new addition to the bourbon lexicon". Now if I only had the discipline to ever send in those rebate coupons :lol:.
