What state are you in? I'm in IL, near Chicago, I have only ever seen Jim Beam Choice at one store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldDrinker1978 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Not Bourbon, but saw this on the shelf and could not resist when I just went to my general drinks store for a new crate of beer. It's actually not bad I must say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year the SmB has a flask in it, while the SB has a couple of rocks glasses. It's a great deal, as they cost the same as the regular bottles!

kjbeggs Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Grabbed another JDSBBP and A RR Rye. Normally i keep Rittenhouse on hand for Manhattans and such, but after trying it recently, thought I'd give RR a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought last years was pretty good as I recall (I would link to the Wednesday tasting post where we blind tasted all the previous AE cask strength bottles but unfortunately that appears to be a casualty of the new format) and so that was part of why I decided to pay the premium this one requires. I will get to it as soon as I can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will get to it as soon as I can! I had a bit of it a couple weeks ago, and I thought it was quite good. This was after several other pours , but I came away thinking it pretty well integrated from the port standpoint. Big whiskey, though . Definitely got my attention over the palate.

Charlutz Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I made a trip last night to pick up a couple things I wanted to try and grabbed: Henry McKenna 10 Rittenhouse Rye Old Weller Antique 107 Tonight, I was hoping to find a backup bottle of Stagg Jr. no. 4, which I did, but the store also had 2 bottles of Elmer T. Lee, so those came home with me too. More than I wanted to spend this week, but we haven't seen ETL around here in a long while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postal Grunt Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I found some WT101 in what is a new label to me over in North KC and it found its way into my collection. Passed on the MM with blue and gold wax. The bottles are supposed to be a kind of souvenir for the Royals winning the World Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
