What bourbon did you purchase today? Spring 2014

[bourboNcigars]

Went to 2 different binnys and a liquor barn near me all within about 5 miles, first binny nothing special but I did not want to leave empty so I bought the last 2 bottles of OGD114 they had for $24.99 the manager said he's surprised how fast he sells it and even more surprised it's harder and harder to get in..then 2nd binnys nothing special there so I left with nothing and last stop the LB also nothing to speak of other I finally scored a ECBP for $50 and they had 1 bottle of saz rye for $35 but I already have 2 bottles not opened yet and don't know if I will like it or not before stocking up..not a bad day..up to 5 bottles of my OGD114 that I'm in love with now lol

Wild Turkey Tradition. Haven't tried it yet, but I figure I should before it disappears someday.

That is a fine bottle to buy, do not think there are a ton of them sitting on the shelf anymore.

Best regards, Tony

Agreed! This is an excellent bottle and most likely should be considered a dusty.

Nashville TN area. Acting like a tourist for a few days.

[393foureyedfox]

On a business trip to Atlanta didn't find anything interesting. Did pick up a FRSB, EWSB 2003, EC12, and 2 bottles of Rittenhouse Rye BIB.

I did not want to leave empty

This is a hangup you've gotta get over if you want to keep your money. It's even harder to leave with nothing when you're in a small store.

Old Ezra Brooks 7 yr 101 proof, and met a guy in Minneapolis and traded for a Barterhouse. I've wanted to try that but can't buy it here in MN. Looking forward to opening both.

Just picked up a regular ETL for $26. Made a mental note to go back and pick up some Booker's (2013-6) for $38 and FRSB for $29.

I'm noticing a few pretty wide price variations in my area vs other parts of the country. The prices mentioned above seem to be very competitive while others such as OW12, EC12 and a few others seem to consistently be priced well above the average.

[amg]

That Booker's price is a steal. I can get FRSB for that price here, and I can't find ETL at all right now, though I'm sure it will be back eventually.

Passed up multiple Barterhouse bottles at $109.99, as well as an Elmer T. Lee commemorative bottle priced to sell at the speed of a moving glacier ($89.99). Went with an Old Granddad 114 for $25. Not a great price, but probably the best I'll get in Maryland. Especially now that the word is out.

[Ishad]

Went out looking for ECBP came home with A. Bowman Last Millennium.

[TunnelTiger]

Went out looking for OGD114 but still passing @ $29.99. One more week and I'll cave to the new $29.99 price. It is what it is.

[bourboNcigars]

Damn $30? I guess I should be happy I'm paying $25 even though I read some are lucky to get it for around $20..it's starting to get harder to find last few months

[TunnelTiger]

Damn I'm not even drinking and I'm posting in the wrong threads.

[bourboNcigars]

Wiat, what hi sai?

[KyleCBreese]

Just picked up an Old Blowhard for $139 and an ETL Com for $35.

Smooth Ambler OS 11/100. Somewhere a Yeti lets out a satisfied roar of approval.:cool:

A local liquor store (Perfect Pour) is trying to get a Smooth Ambler Single Barrel. Word on the street is the SA rep said they'd have 10+ yr available. IF YOU'RE LISTENING SMOOTH AMBLER, PERFECT POUR WOULD REALLY LIKE TO HAVE A 10 YEAR, BARREL PROOF SINGLE BARREL OFFERING! I'm pretty sure an offering of such epic-ness would attract bourbon anoraks from all over the area . . .

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.
