WLW, GTS, OFBB, and ORVW landed on me yesterday.  The one bottle per hour online sale made for a very unproductive day at work but an expensively productive day for bourbon.

I hope it didn't hurt and the bottles didn't break!

Picked these two up yesterday. I've read good things about both of them, so I'm anxious to try them. 8337da302c58b2d6b2455f35b37a8b97.jpg

I have padding and mad juggling skills so all is good.

Handle of OWA, 'cause you can't have too much Weller in the house...

 

I couldn't agree with you more Pat. :D

 

Cheers! Joe

Wish I could find a handle of OWA around here. Oh well, I did walk out with 2 bottle of HMBiB for $27 including tax. Not bad for a pretty darn good whiskey.

I found a little stash of OGD 114 while visiting MA for Thanksgiving last week. Just grabbed one for the bunker since it's on the endangered species list. Paid $32.

Bought my first (!?!) bottle of SAOS yesterday - 11yr 110.4 proof Single Barrel Cask Strength Straight Bourbon Whiskey.  $54.99 OTD from my old liquor supplier (I bought all of the wine, spirits and beer for daughter #1's wedding from him a few years ago).  Looking forward to opening it at Christmas time!   Will report back with tasting notes later.   :D

I have never seen those mini Blanton's before!  That is pretty cool.  I have to think however that the cost of the bottle, metal and cork stopper, and wax cost Sazarac almost as much as the liquid inside.

They are $10 each. 1.7oz. I spend that when I drink it while out and I like the little bottles. I like to call my buddies and tell them I bought them a bottle of Blantons and then drop that off. Lol

It's the thought that counts. :D

Huge fan of most SAOS - but the 11 year really stands out to me. I mentioned to a friend the other day that it would be in the running for "if I was stuck drinking the same drink for the rest of my life". Enjoy

Of course each one is a little different since they are single barrels.  I had an 11 yr low proof that was also quite good.

 

I hope GeeTen's bottle is as good as ours.

WOW! Those are comically small. :D

They sell them in the gift shop as well. I picked up a few to stash some of the hand selected barrel I served at my wedding. Nice go to when you want to ration it out and go back to it for special occasions.

It was a good day for me in E. TN. Put in some equity at my new favorite LS and it paid off with the ETL. Got the OWA as well because of all the great reviews on here. Both at MSRP.

Nice. Even an Ole Vol can find an acorn every now and then.

We sure as hell aren't finding it on the football field the last half of the season. So I'll take it.

Picked up a couple of bottles of the latest batch of ECBP today for $59.99 each plus tax. [emoji106][emoji3]

So my wife bought me this for Christmas today, she just doesn't know she did. Or maybe I won't tell her and open it. I realize it's a gimmick-y marketing ploy, and the 17-year bourbon in there probably is not actual liquid gold from the Stitzel-Weller distillery, but whatever. I like marketing gimmicks, within reason, and was feeling adventurous.
