I'd love to have a full BTAC collection but I know that there are so many other great ones out there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NDN98 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 My open bottle shelf was getting a little low, so I thought I’d pull everything out of the bunker, see what I had, and add some more bottles to my open bottle shelf this weekend. Turns out, I have a lot more bourbon and scotch in my bunker than I thought I did. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky enough to snag a few way back in the day. Of the ones I had, I thought barrels #4 and #100 were pretty dog goned good. Biba!

BigRich Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 My open bottle shelf was getting a little low, so I thought I’d pull everything out of the bunker, see what I had, and add some more bottles to my open bottle shelf this weekend. Turns out, I have a lot more bourbon and scotch in my bunker than I thought I did. I recently moved and had to move and restore my unopened bottles. It was kind of like Christmas all over again. On a weird side note, my spelling is not great and with my big fingers, using my iPhone makes it even worse. The autocorrects are usually annoying but occasionally funny. When I started this post “recently” went to “Rex Elroy’s”. I do not know this person or why they are hiding in my phone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe This one is barrel # 55, which is one of the wheated barrels. I had the one from barrel 115 at one point (didn't last long) and it was terrific. Actually moved this bottle to my open shelf and plan on opening it tonight and see how it compares to the memory of barrel 115. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowderKeg Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I think I need a bigger cabinet - 92 diff varieties, all bourbon except 4 ryes and a wheat.... The duplicate+ bottles and handles of quite a few are elsewhere. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where it starts you get a bigger cabinet and then a second cabinet then you start stashing bottles under the desk in your office or in a spare closet or maybe in the trash can next to your favorite chair. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who is single i can tell you that it gets worse I have a "Dining room" and an "Office", I could use some resistance to my purchasing and storage habits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FasterHorses Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 It's always nice to meet someone who enjoys this hobby. A fella at work asked me if he saw me at a Belle Meade release last Saturday and we started talking bourbon. Eventually he asked about how many bottles I had. I thought I had done pretty well from one perspective, but didn't know if I should be proud or ashamed when I told him I had about 100. He put his hand on my shoulder and said "you'll get there". 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was the Honey Cask Finish release. I had to go into work that morning for a meeting and by the time I got to Greenbrier the line was halfway down the street. I waited for a while and ultimately missed out. They only had about 200 bottles. Not too disappointed at the crazy price they were asking.

BMartin42 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Bunker organization project in full swing this evening. Never thought of myself as a hoarder but this might prove me wrong. I just tend to grab bottles when I see good prices and the way the bottles were I had NO idea what I had at home. If someone would’ve asked I would have said I had 2 or 3 baby Saz. Oops. Well that’s why I’m organizing and taking inventory. Time to drink some BT and Saz for sure! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
