flahute Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Well she has good taste in varietals, so there's that.My wife is not a bourbon "drinker" per se, but I've discovered that she likes most Four Roses products so that's progress.

zillah Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I just bought some but have to transport it in my bag. I want to open it now though. Does anyone know if it is a screw top or cork? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bin31z Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I worried about the same thing with bourbons. Someone shipped a mmcs to me and and it sat on its side all week. Was relieved to find that it has synthetic cork so it wouldn't be dissolved by the strong alcohol. Don't know how bad submerging the cork is but I avoid it for weeks on end if I can.

jvd99 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Saw MMCS for $30 at my go-to shop - that's the lowest price I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gburger Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Found it at Twin Liquors in Austin last night $29 a bottle, I picked up 2, tried it and went back and got 2 more. I liked it that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grantsi Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Polished off my first bottle tonight - I found it to be a very tasty, easy drinking, almost mindless drink given its "cask strength" reputation. I'm a buyer at $34.99 or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWBadley Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Tasting this little 375 gem yesterday I did like the character and complexity. In contrast to a bottle of OGD114 as an example- I find it a bit more interesting and lovely pour- but at three times the price it's unlikely I'll go back for more.I keep finding OGD 114 as a favorite value. I just hope they don't pull it and reissue it at twice the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvd99 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 K&L posted on their blog that they got an entire truckload of MMCS. They claim if you want 50 cases, go ahead and place your order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I picked up a bottle at Binny's today. I haven't seen it in the Indy area, although I would guess it has been around. Is the proof on all of the batches the same? Mine is Batch #14-02 and is 113.3 proof. I will be honest, I didn't enjoy my first taste. It is a lot better with a small cube of ice which melted quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
