HoustonNit Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Finally found a 10. Expensive but been after it for a while. I’d pay that, I have some of the older clock dial bottles but the 8yr and more importantly only 80 proof stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it on their web site yesterday but it was already sold out. (Sold out within minutes of being posted...) I did get the 1792 FP store pick, though. Can't wait to try it. I'm a big fan of the regular FP. The Stagg Jr. is probably the 126.4. If so, it's a good one. Caramel/brown sugar nose with a nice, spicy back palate. Enjoy!

I used to work right near the Mtn View Total wine and THey'd hold for me for a little while so as long as I called when the shipments came in I was good. but now it's too far away and Im tired of that sort of legwork.

Since I'm in the East Bay, I have K&L hold my purchases until I'm in the City for business or social reasons. They will hold purchases for up to 90 days whereas Total Wine will hold for only a few days. BTW, what part of the Bay Area are you in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8yr Beam is half pints 2 for $10. Those Black Cap OGD's are special, I used to think it was a figment of my imagination but went blind a couple months back and the winner was clear.

Did you have it go SBS with the new more fancy bottling? This black cap bottling I think is the one right before the current bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardsandBourbon Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Had a pour of Willett Rye Saturday night. The guy said he went a little liberal with the pour (full highball glass) so he's my new favorite bartender. I swear it was a triple so I was kind of expecting a pricey bill. Nope, $8.25. Liked it so much that I went to LB today to see if they had any. They didn't. But they did have this: 10 year age stated and only 2 dollars more than the regular EC. Been wanting to pick up a bottle of the DN and at $24 I wasn't going to pass it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was age stated at 10 y.o. and a single barrel so the extra $2 didn't really bother me this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
