I bought it two years in a row despite the fact that I didn't think it was any better than Stagg Jr, the first year I bought 1 bottle at $65, the next I bought 2 at $70 and 1 at $80, the next year it was on the shelf at $119 and I almost bit but passed, since I've only seen $199 bottles and I still don't regret passing at $119.

Marekv8 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 This is really quite nice... it’s like a well-dressed Wild Turkey 101 with butter. The 107 proof encapsulates more flavor with elegance vs. brashness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshall9779 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 With some hot out of the oven candied pecans. Pretty damn good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Staying with The House of Heaven Hill. ECBP 136.0. It has it all, deep color, a myriad of notes and thick viscosity. Seriously good. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t taste exactly the same but Stagg Jr. is pretty damn close and thankfully pretty available at a decent price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarSurfer55 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Okay, StraightBourbonites : I have decided to show my trust in your judgement by allowing you to pick my pour for tonight. The rules are as follows: It has to be in my current stash (listed below). You get to vote once. Voting closes at 9 pm tonight. As some background, I tend to like the sweeter bourbons with strong caramel notes but also like the higher ryes occasionally. Here is the list for those I drink Neat: Blantons Eagle Rare Buffalo Trace Willet Pot Still WT101 WT Rare Breed WT Kentucky Spirit Elijah Craig SB Makers 46 Evan Williams SB Bookers Bulleit Bookers Four Roses SB Knob Creek SB Calumet Farm Single Rack I also have Pendleton Director’s Reserve for the Canadian votes and for the Rum enthusiasts, a Mt.Gay 1703 and a Mt. Gay XO. So help me pick a pour before the big wind storm expected tomorrow blows me away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afmadd Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Eagle Rare is always a safe bet. It doesn't always taste the best, but it always tastes good. Never had a day where it disagreed with my palate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My county has county run liquor stores. They have it priced at $31. Hard to come by but they have a website where you can see store inventory. Pretty much have to get there same day to get any ER once you see that it’s in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
