NDN98 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Trying not to buy too much right now as I’m saving for a trip, but went to the store today to look and picked up this on sale. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Lullaby Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 In Lawrence, KS for the Kansas basketball game and I picked up my first bottle of Stagg Jr yesterday. Tried a swing at the hotel before we went out to dinner and it was excellent! One of my better recent purchases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTaylor Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Hmmm... MGP brand or just credited? For $29 figured I’d give it a try. Probably won’t buy another but it wasn’t bad... A little light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second your friends opinion. I’m a big fan of the John J. A lot of interesting debate about its source distiiate with the primary belief that its Buffalo Trace Mashbill #1. Regardless it is tasty juice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardsandBourbon Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 My first trip to Westport Whiskey & Wine today. Ended up picking up a PS of WTKS. Had a taste in the store and was impressed. They told me they're getting a PS of KC Rye in a couple of weeks. Looks like another trip is in the works.

BigRich Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Apparently, I’m in the barren wasteland of bourbon this week. We took the kids to Orlando. I pop in a local store for a bottle each of bourbon and rye to help mommy and daddy get through the week. The store had damn near nothing in bourbon besides Jim and Jack. The exceptions were an EC small batch for $54!?!? and Larceny. So the $23 bottle of Larceny came with me. For some reason though, it just is not doing it for me. The last two bottles I’ve bought I liked a lot. This one is all sweet corn. Meh.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emr454 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Picked up an ECBP B517 for $58. It'll likely be a while before I crack this one open, but I'm curious how it stacks up to the older releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socalkid Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) went back to my neighborhood LS to see if they had another bottle from that same batch of Henry McKenna 10 yr BiB i picked up last week (they didn't unfortunately) and saw this on the shelf. given that the recent releases go for mid to high $30's i didn't mind paying $50 for my first dusty, especially because when the store manager cut me a deal to that price. would love to hear impressions from other folks of this bottle, about to dive into Google and Rarebird101 now to see what i can find... Update: according to the Wild Turkey bar codes (guessing that it also applies Russell's Reserve bottlings too?) this is a bottle from March of 2006 Edited February 21, 2018 by socalkid 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely will. Haven’t opened it but plan to by the end of the week. Here’s the bottle for now.
