Was that you at TS?

To be fair, I did offer to trade. :lol:

Yea, I was too consumed with the pile of goodness behind the counter. As I was leaving, I thought, "Wait a sec, I knew that guy." hah.

Today I picked up a few bottles of the Four Roses barrel pick James and I made back in April. Also found an ETL on the shelf. First time I've seen one of those in the Texas wild in over a year. 8160c70c7a9402fbbbaa0409408e79ae.jpge5be8050546b369f63ead48b78a442a3.jpg713924a428c6c1d38ba46b543a7ea610.jpg

Looks tasty, I've really enjoyed some of the lower proof 4R Barrel Strength Private selections. Neat or a few drops of water, just awesome. Enjoy, looks like you're good to the apocalypse on OBSO.

^^^^^^

hopefully it's not the Oregon Rye.

And I stocked up for a weekend full of festivities with a 1.75 of EWBIB and 2 OGDBIB. I saw a CEHTBP on the shelf also that I think I'll have to go back for tomorrow.

It is Oregon.

BMH no longer makes it in Kentucky.

Although, it's still essentially the same thing.

He buys barrels from KY and bottles them in Oregon.

I had some of the bourbon a few weeks ago in a restaurant and it is literally the best bourbon that has ever touched my lips.

I think you misunderstood the label. Here is a thread that explains its origin a bit: http://www.straightbourbon.com/forums/showthread.php?22672-New-Black-Maple-Hill-Oregon-stuff

Since you love it, perhaps you should try some of the bourbon the originating distillery puts out.

Oops, wrong thread. Here is a more informative one:

Not bourbon, but while in the sticks of west Georgia I did run across some Lazy Guy Distillery "The General" 151 proof Corn Whiskey. First I'd seen the bottle in a store, so brought one home to support the local economy.

Placed an order for Makers cask and HW midwinter dram, and got lucky. The shipper called and asked if I wanted a PHC wheat too. Sure! Love some good old fashioned luck.

Picked up only one bourbon this past Friday, the ECBP Batch 6, thanks to a kind heads up from a fellow SBer! While there I saw the Ritt with the new label. Don't really need more at the moment but when has that ever stopped me? Was also offered a PHC and since I really like it I decided I could not let it pass!

Wow the exact three bottles I got Friday but I did add my first bottle of 13th Colony rye to go with them.

In the last week or so, picked up the 4R LE Small Batch (pleasant surprise find in the local ABC store), ECBP 6, and a PHC Wheat.

PHC 2014. Waiting for my tastebuds to return to normal after a course of antibiotics. Really looking forward to this one.

Very happy to add a 14 GTS and Batch 6 ECBP on my own, and 14 4R SmB LE and 14 WLW, with the help and generosity of a fellow SBer/GBSer.

I grabbed a few bottles while out and about today. These are bottlings that I now basically consider part of my "regular rotation". Just wanted to purchase a few extra while they are still available, and the price is nice. Should be good for a while now. FWIW, I told my wife I'd like a bottle or two of FRSB for Xmas. That should round things out quite nicely.

Cheers! Joe

I grabbed a bottle of Michter's 10 at a Meijer of all places. I didn't really need it, but I was so surprised to see it on the shelf, I grabbed a bottle. $85. Left a couple there.
