But I suppose it made sense in the olden days when chill filtration wasn't all that well understood by the common folk. Yeah, I found it interesting when I first heard about it too. Funny though, every since then I've noticed that cloudiness whenever I have a pour of a non-chill filtered bourbon with ice or water. As long as it tastes good, it doesn't bother me a bit. Cheers!

lcpfratn Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Picked up some more OWA from another store PS Barrel today. This was priced a bit more than the earlier purchase this week, but this is supposed to be NCF. There was also a purchase limit, which allowed it to last more than a few hours like the two other stores that had OWA PS Barrels this week. They also got in four different BT PS Barrels, a 1792 FP PS and an ER PS Barrel. The 1792 was the best I've ever had and the ER and BT was darn good too. So, needless to say, my wallet took another hit today because I left with at least one of everything. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my 2 hour drive to the funeral home the store messaged me so I felt it was fate. If you notice the background of the pic I stopped at a little veterans memorial park. Also, one of those PHC is for a friend. I had never seen those in the wild either except for 3+ times retail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you know the ribbing here is all in the spirit of good friendship, and we'll all raise a glass for your loss around the world tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardsandBourbon Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Was at P & M picking up some butterscotch schnapps to make Buttery Nipples and Wafflez at our tailgate on Saturday I picked up another OGD 114 for the bunker and a Pikesville Rye (I know it's a rye and not a bourbon but I'm just too lazy to go post it in the What Rye Did You Purchase Today) thread.

Paddy Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 ^^^^Clueby, I'll still rib ya', but please accept my most sincere condolences. Sending good thoughts and prayers to you and your family, as well as a toast in honor of your fathers memory. On topic: I got a text day before yesterday. Co-worker on the road (out of state) found a honey hole of Stagg Jr. for $54.99. We agreed to buy 5 of 8 bottles on the shelf. He took one, I took one, and three friends still consider us friends in good standing! Part of me wishes I'd bought it all, but I have a personal rule that I try not to break when it comes to stores that I'm not a regular in (always consider the local guys even when the owner doesn't give a $&!%)...

tanstaafl2 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Does it count as a purchase if you didn't pay anything for it? Most interesting bourbon at the local whiskey festival last night was a bottle of the new PHC 11yo which I of course tried immediately. But later in the evening I noticed to my surprise that it was still hanging around. Naturally I hung around to the end and then, being a gallant southern gentlemen, I offered to assist the women at the booth with carrying things to her car. And of course I also offered to dispose of that excess bottle of PHC. Very thoughtful of me right? So I go home with about 1/4 of the bottle for the bargain basement price of zip, zero, nada. My favorite price! How it lasted to the end in the first place is still a conundrum to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 ^^^^and that good sir, is the way to get it done! Very well done! That is one thing we have going for us in Kentucky, often times a tasting means that three (or eight) distilleries will show up. Once those bottle are open............

Even better was that I had gotten a free industry pass to the festival in the first place! Should have played the lottery. That would have been my only expense! Well, I did Uber but that is always a good idea at an event like this. For me anyway! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theiano Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Picked up a ECBP batch B517. It was a bit above retail at $69.99, but I find it hard to pass these days when I see it at any reasonable price, although that is about my upper limit. After exiting that store, I crossed the road to another store and saw the same batch in their premium cabinet, marked at $130, needless to say I passed on that one!

HoustonNit Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Pretty sure this will be terrible but I had $11 burning a hole in my pocket. Stopped in one of my main Weller Antique spots and found them still recovering from flooding from Harvey and had just opened back up. Saw this on the shelf wanted to buy something from them and figured I'd be the only kid on the block with Bourbon De Luxe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
