Yeah I'm not sure if I've ever paid over $20 for it.  I have 3 or 4 older bottles in the bunker so I'm good.  By older I just mean before the new bottle change.  I still really only mix it with OGD114 or occasionally OWA.  I might have some over ice on a hot summer day as well but not something I reach for very often.

I have all new bottle stuff and also like to mix with OWA. I mixed WSR, OWA, and a small bit a CEHT SmB about a month ago, Taste pretty good.

I passed on RY10 @ $53.99 since I already have 1 unopened bottle in the bunker I have yet to try.

Bill, I agree that the comparable 1.75L pricing is compelling, but our 750ml bottle pricing is certainly not in line with some areas. Of course the positive thing is that we are also cheaper than some other areas and can find WSR in just about any store in the Memphis area.

Just wasn't sure if you were up to all the high end math equations.

I found WSR over a large cube with a dash of orange bitters to be a great and simple summer "cocktail"

I passed on everything yesterday. I’m finding it much harder to find things that interest me anymore. Once I drink through the 75 or so unopened bottles of bourbon, I’m not sure what I’m going to do.

There, there; poor baby... You'll be OK, I bet, big fella!         I'm sure you'll find a way to muddle through this difficulty eventually, Rich.    Just hang in there, my boy!

Well, there is always scotch and Irish whiskey...

I would have picked it up but I have no discipline.

[Mako254]

‘16 OFBB for $250

’17 OFBB for $350

Elmer for $149

Rock Hill Farms for $99

KY Owl for $169

Michters 10 for $105 (fair I guess but I’m not a Michters guy)

 

This one shop in North Florida has the below ‘for display purposes ‘ and they were not for sale. Also had 3 Staggs. 

 

 

[emr454]

Weller 107 for $59.99. Also saw regular Angels Envy in a locked case next to Templeton 10yr Special Reserve rye. Wut?

Probably the worst prices I've seen. I thought the EHTBP I saw for $150 was bad enough.

That’s so frustrating to see. I would not support that place!

[jvd99]

Bought a new EC barrel pick, passed on all the rest

 

 

[FasterHorses]

OWA 1.75 for $84

Jim Beam White 7year age stated $24

[socalkid]

various batches of older label ECBP @ $99.99 

[CardsandBourbon]

Heading back home from watching my U of L Cards whoop up on Western Carolina in baseball 16-4 I stopped at a few stores and didn't see anything worth pulling the trigger.  The las store had some 750's and handles of WSR, but no way was I pulling the trigger at $49.95 and $99.95.

Honestly, I’d buy all they had of the Kentucky Owl rye for $117. I recognize that not everyone likes to spend that much on a bottle, not everyone loves rye, and yes it’s an NDP. But I don’t care, I like TGR juice and that’s a pretty good price for it in this market

[GeeTen]

2015 8yr PHC Malt Whiskey for $175 incl. NYC sales tax.  Spent too much money in Texas last week on bourbon!

Man I would love to of seen a bottle at that price. I have been looking for some RY10 with no luck. According to breakingbourbon.com the 2018 RY10 release is supposed to be coming out this month so heres hoping.

What is TGR? I agree on the KO Rye and the pinhook looks interesting. What is the age JVD?

Ha! TGR must have been some sort of autocorrect. I was just trying to type that I like “the” juice

I was in Louisiana a few days ago, and I passed on these.  I'm sure someone will tell me these are the greatest ever and how could I have possibly resisted?

[mikeydk]

I almost pulled the trigger on this just for kicks.  Almost. Mainly because I'd never seen it or heard of it before, being from California and all.
