Paddy Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I also passed on Forgiven, then RHF, LB select 4RSB barrel proofers and all High West and Bowman products. Also saw WP Boss Hog and RB21, but behind glass and overpriced IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerlam92 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I'd have probably bought that Saz 18 too!Sadly, I probably would too. That would be my max for the Saz 18 but not more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 :grin:I just like to say it... 'cause after all the angst and discussion here upon the initial release, I just think it's funny as hell that it's still out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I will be honest. If the price dropped to $35, I would probably buy a bottle. It opened at $49.99 here and has stayed the same price. I was a Kroger today (Indy area) and saw some lady load up her cart with Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey. It was from the gift display shelf, although it was only bottles nothing with them. She is either going to use it to make punch for her holiday party or disappoint a lot of family and friends.

tanstaafl2 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Saw one I had not heard of before. A new Hooker House bottle called Cohabitation. Looks like an attempt to hype more sourced bourbon for a ton of money by applying the 'solera" moniker to it. 7yo bourbon with a splash of several older whiskies mixed in and trying to get away with calling it 7/21 to promote the sliver of 21yo whiskey it contains. Going for something in the $125-$130 range. I liked the regular Hooker House bourbon finished in pinot noir for $35ish. Might be able to get up to $50ish from me for this one. But $125-$130? Umm, no. :shithappens: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleCBreese Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Isn't mentioning the 21-year whiskey on the label a labeling issue? I thought only the youngest whiskey age could be on the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 You can mention it (Wild Turkey Rare Breed does it in small print on the back label) but the Hooker label appears misleading to me as it looks like a 50/50 combination of 7 and 21 year old whiskys. Sell that in California and somebody might sue 'ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmossle Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Left a bunch on the shelf today. Woodford Pinot Noir Finish, Jeff Ocean #3, RHF, and the new OF 1870 Original batch. Curious about the later, but not $50 curious for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
