BourbonGuy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 22 hours ago, Tony Santana said: Getting nervous about the aging dropping on the EC, so picked up the last EC12 with the "12" on the front label that was on the shelf, and a 1.75 that still says 12 years on the back label. Thank you for contacting Heaven Hill Brands. We thoroughly enjoy hearing from our loyal consumers and sincerely appreciate your patronage of our products. While the Elijah Craig Small Batch package has recently changed, the product is still a 12-year-old Bourbon and is stated as such on the back label. As a family owned, independent company, Heaven Hill Brands takes inquiries from our customers very seriously and hope our prompt response is evidence of this. Thank you again for your patronage and if I can be of further assistance, please let me know.

b1gcountry Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I picked up a 4r sb gift box. Passed on some Pikesville for 43, and some Winchester for 22 at the local total wine. A friend recommended the Winchester as a decent sourced bourbon but I passed anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear positive reviews of at least some barrel picks. I bought one without checking into in, and then saw how much it seemed like people didn't like it.

Fort Knox Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 On 1/17/2016 12:06:09, DeltaAlphaVictorEasy said: The Durham C-H Blvd store just got MMCS 750's, if you're into that. The best bottle in the store IMO is the Barrell Bourbon Batch 5- the best 'sleeper' bottle of the fall season. There was some Redemption CS Rye 8yr but it is now gone. The Jack Daniels Single Barrel , Barrel Proof just showed up, it is in a display by the front door. You could try Orange County for the SAOS, they might have some 7yr bourbon left but the rye has been gone since late last summer. Please let me know what the driving time to the distillery ends up being, I would like to plan a trip there myself. Yeah, I saw those there, but I just picked up a 750 of MMCS at the store over on Alexander about 2 weeks ago. I've been curious about the Barrell Bourbon, but the price for something I've never tried is a bit of a deterrent. I might have to pick up a bottle of the JDSBBP though, based on some of the reviews here. I've had good luck with the Orange County stores, so I might try there, as you suggest, and also there's a Wake County store or 2 that I've seen SAOS at. I'll definitely post up about my trip to the Smooth Ambler distillery afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp_stargazer Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I made my semi-regular pilgrimage to Binny's this weekend, motivated by a coupon. I am trying to reach bourbon zen, and although I'm not quite there yet, I do impress myself from time to time with my self-discipline. My wife and I walked out of Binny's spending less than $70 total: some wine (for her), two bottles of beer (for me), and a Binny's Buffalo Trace selection for $25.

miller542 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Stagg Jr. batch 5 Looking forward to this one, seems like I am starting to lean towards BT recipe #1 over recipe #2. Also looking forward to Stagg Jr in a barrel proof tasting with Rare Breed, EC BP, and Bookers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisiana Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 1 - Private Barrel ER10 2 - Weller 12 2 - OWA 1 - 2014 Four Roses Small Batch LE. A local store owner told me his system showed 2 available, but they were misplaced about a year ago. He found them yesterday and asked if I wanted one. Everything was retail, so it was a great day!

sevener Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Added one more Stagg Jr. Batch 5 to the bunker. It's going to be a snowy weekend, 129.7 proof should help keep me warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to lie…… I picked one up today to see if I liked it enough to buy a half a dozen.... I have always thought it was good, but have always chosen that Henry Mckenna 10-year-old over it.

Gunnar Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Now y'all making me nervous about EC12. I quite like it so I had to pick up a few at my local CVS ($22.29 if you get 6). They still said 12yo on the back. Haven't seen any with the 12 on the front for quite a while here (except for the only one I have left). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
