What bourbon did you purchase today? Spring 2014

[dcbt]

Local store got some RHF in stock. I was going to try to exchange a bottle of Blantons for one. Any thoughts?

It's virtually the same bourbon, just different proof and aging warehouse location.

Right, same mashbill and all. I've read slightly older and obviously proofed up. Just didn't know if anybody had any comparisons.

Picked up an OGD BiB. Hadn't bought one of these in a little while

[RepTucker]

3 ETLC 28 each. Was gifted a barterhouse. 2 ETL 28 each. 1 jefferson reserve and 1 wtrr. Also picked up 6 BMH, but they are all for a friend.

Decided I should probably grab another Booker's 25th (as I really like it), so I stopped the last place I had seen a few bottles. Alas , I was too late.

Had been craving Manhattans all day, so grabbed a bottle of Willett Rye.

I am curious.........with everyone raving about Booker's 25th......were you guys already fans of Booker's, or has buying the 25th anniversary release made you (or brought you back to) into a Booker's fan? Seems I so rarely heard Booker's comments before the 25th was released.

ECBP (132.4 not sure which batch that is)

SAOS 10

EC12 (store select)

Picked up the second batch of Stagg Jr. that recently came out.

[kcgumbohead]

Standard 4RSmb my personal go to.

[SqueakScolari]

Picked up a Barterhouse for $77 and a Powers John's Lane 12 year for $66.

I like the Barterhouse, nice nose, and in fact I like it better than the PHC POH that cost me $90.

[theglobalguy]

Snagged a LBarn OESF 4R PS.

After being a complainer about Pa controlled state issues, I came home happy tonight. Simply asked a store to try to get me ETL, the awesome woman there mentioned one of the other men works other pa stores and they would see about bringing me some from another store. Tonight to get an OGDBiB and they had 3 ETL for me. I have my store, yeah I bought a lot the past month but the staff made my day tonight.

Grabbed an EC21, and a Bowman Port Finished at lunch.

If that is the 12-year port finished, I really like that one. Great bourbon.

I just picked up a Stagg Jr. 2nd batch for $50 including tax. Wasn't really looking for it, but came across a lone bottle and picked it up. Still have some of the first batch around. I like it quite a bit to vat with BT single barrels.

Hmm...maybe I should give Barterhouse a try. I do like POH.

[GaryT]

Snagged a Bookers 2013-6; looking forward to bumping this against my open random batch.

Yep, the 12-year. I've now got that one, the Gingerbread, Last Millennium, and the recent Double Barrel.

[suntour]

First bottle of Four Roses SB barrel-strength, OBSK picked by the Oregon Bartenders Guild.

Can't wait to crack into it.

Recently did a blind SBS with those 4. In my mind the Port and the Double Barrel were the clear winners

I thought the younger 7 or 8yo Bowman port was pretty good as well. A younger whiskey but more time in the port barrels (8 months versus 4 months) which had previously been Bowman barrels. The port had spent more time in the former Bowman bourbon barrels in the younger one as well. 2 years versus about 15 months.

A big brown truck just stopped in front of my house and dropped off a box..... these are pretty rare around this neck of the woods,it took me about 5 min. to pour some into my glass.My very first taste of this stuff.... I Like it! Thanks again to the person who took the time to send me these!
