Josh Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Check out this guy's jaw dropping bunker. He's got both kinds of boubon: Pappy AND Willet!

b1gcountry Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 The writer focused on the pappy. I guess that's what most would be interested in. I didn't realize you were mocking...Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur The particular type of bourbon within the brand should be added too (Parkers Heritage 27 year e.g.) A couple of the pics in the article are taken from a little closer although some bottles are moved around. Looks like a decent collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 Should have used the [sarcasm font].His bar and collection are fine but at an average night at the Gazebo, his collection wouldn't even break the top ten.Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Birnam Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 " Allen Katz is exceptional among New York saloonkeepers in that his bar, the Shanty, operates under a license held by his distillery, New York Distilling Co. in Brooklyn. " I do find this exceptional, not his 'collection' or the bar, but it seems he has circumvented New York state alcohol beverage control law §101. To wit; 1. It shall be unlawful for a manufacturer or wholesaler licensed under this chapter to (a) Be interested directly or indirectly in any premises where any alcoholic beverage is sold at retail; or in any business devoted wholly or partially to the sale of any alcoholic beverage at retail by stock ownership, interlocking directors, mortgage or lien or any personal or real property, or by any other means. Oh and the fact that he needs ~$800 worth of shakers and strainers to make a cocktail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emr454 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Meh. I've seen much better bunkers from SB.com members. In fact, I've seen pictures of a single liquor store purchase more impressive than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
