OESV usually has a nice custard creamy thing going on. OESO should be an interesting pour as well. Should have a nice fresh berry flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 On the road today. Plucked a baby Saz and a couple of A. Bowman SmB's from a NC ABC store. Hit up MC's in Knoxville for a couple of his PS bottles (KCSB and WTRR110). Another stop yielded a ECBP, a PS BT, and a couple of OWA's. Combined with last weeks Weller haul out of Georgia, I may be good for another week (or two)! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourbon4all Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Back from my trip to kentucky. The four roses singles left something to be desired (out at both locations) but pretty good otherwise. I didnt plan on buying at wild turkey but Jimmy was there so i got one to sign. Mostly store selections. The four on the right are for a fellow bourbon nerd and two or three others are for friends. Couldn't find bib fitzgerald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bourbon4all Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The OKI are mgp sourced they are done in three barrel batches. It's my replacement for when I drink all my smooth ambler. The bottle on the far left is still 630 rye finished in wine barrels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it barrel proof? Mine are 97 proof I believe, which I have lower smooth ambler barrel proofs than that but I wasn't sure. I know it's not filtered...

HoustonNit Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Picked another W12. Same place I've picked up three bottles in the past two months. Every time I go in they have one bottle on the shelf, I always ask if they have more and they say no. I think they might have finally dried out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed out on it this weekend when it hit DFW, but luckily I still have a few bottles left from when it hit our area in June. I have gone through 3 bottles in the last 2 months. One of the best bangs for your buck out there, in my opinion. Edited October 4, 2017 by NDN98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This place has raised pricing from $30 to $38 but still a good deal for 12 yr wheater in this market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpiz Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I just received the two bottles of KCSB (Ace Spirits selection) I ordered about a week ago. I’m saving one bottle for a friend, but may have to open the other! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bottle out at MSRP and that's it. No more for you. The bottle may not be replaced for a day or two to frustrate the persistent flipper/hoarder. I like this strategy.

If there's anything I hate more than a smart ass, it's two of 'em. Here's my total haul for the month. Any better? FWIW, I've been waiting for a while now for one store that I know to receive their ps Weller SR. I heard through the grapevine it ain't coming in till November, so I decided to bite the bullet today. Also, and FWIW, the ER, BT, KCSB and one OWA are private selections. Cheers! Joe I kinda have to fess up here folks. Even though I'm the self proclaimed "Weller whore" of SB, I have to admit that all of these bottles weren't destined for me and my bunker. A phone call was made, and an email was sent. One of the RHF's already has a new home, and a couple of the Weller's will also be in new surroundings soon. I'm a firm believer in share and share alike, especially when it comes to good friends/fellow members and family/fellow members. Others have been good to me, and I try to respond in kind. I wasn't really trying to mislead y'all. I just got caught up in all the hoopla. That being said, I'm still glad I bought what I did. I emptied bottles of OWA, Weller SR and Weller 12 today when I did my latest "Weller Blend". Empty a few, buy a few more. What can I say? And that's the way it is. Cheers!

Seems fair I actually like this way of doing business gives more a chance of getting a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
