The head whiskey guy says its "similar" to Elmer T. Lee bourbon. Dunno about that, since I've never had it. While there, I noticed 4 types of Booker's Bourbon, all priced at $76 before WA taxes. Fuck Beam. I also noticed that the One-Liter sized Knob Creek has no age statement on the front label, or anywhere on the label. The other KC had 9-year statements. Sounds like one of those bottles TW staff gets a commission on if they can push it out the door. NAS Barton whiskey from Sazerac. The seem to have several of these labels floating around. Walking Stick was another as I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limegoldconvertible68 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I can't seem to stop myself from buying OWA whenever I see it. It was the last bottle and it's a Single Barrel Store Pick so the temptation was just to much to resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I compared notes with the Professor and we've gotten that song and dance from two different TW locations. Seems like they've been coached to push this story.

MOwhisky4me Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I've got a couple dozen bunkered because I simply love the stuff, but ran across a couple EC12 (age on rear label) while grocery shopping today. They went home with me for $25.77 a fifth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I picked up a rendezvous rye, old crow reserve, and scored a WLW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TW staff does NOT get a commission on "Spirits Direct" brands, corporate just makes more money. There is a promise of a small "bonus" if the store exceeds their % of SD sales from the last year, but have never seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm heading down to Knoxville in mid-February to officiate at the SEC Swimming Championships @ UT. Please feel free to PM me (I already tried to send you a message) if you're interested.

Looking forward to giving it a go and seeing if it is worth capturing a few more for the bunker. With any luck, I am hoping it has a little Four Roses OB spice and kick to it which would be awesome. Thoughts on the High Rye? I saw a bottle at my local store today and grabbed it on a whim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffrey r Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Thoughts on the High Rye? I saw a bottle at my local store today and grabbed it on a whim. I think it is very good. I wouldn't pay $50 for it, but it is well worth the low $30's price IMO. I bought a few more after opening one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
