ER10 for $27 at kroger The Rare Perfection brand is owned by Preservation Distillery. That business is run by the Palatellas and they only very recently started distilling. So clearly any 14 year product they put out is sourced. They own other labels too, all sourced still as far as I know. Sourced from where? Who knows. I doubt they got anything recently that is 14 year age stated from Willett. If I had to guess I would think HH is a good possibility, since they are close by and have plenty of aged stock.

I saw the 14 from $150-$200 today. For some reason I had associated this brand with Willett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Willett/KBD had bottled (and presumably helped source the juice) for some of the Olde St. Nick releases in the past for sure, but the brand was never owned by them. So might they have also bottled some of the Rare Perfection releases? Certainly possible. But today the Preservation Distillery has their own facility in Bardstown too. I believe they bottle there, and they have a very small system for their own distilling. But again they mathematically could not have come close to distilling a 14 year product. Of course Willett hasn’t been distilling their own juice neatly that long either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 BT bourbon cream all but disappeared from the shelves once again. Came across a lone bottle for $55 today and noped the hell out of there. Bought a Baileys to sate that crave instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only had the BT bourbon cream myself. In addition to Ezra Brooks and Brown Jug (neither of which I've tried yet) I also have recently come across Boone County bourbon cream.

The Va ABC has discontinued Nooku and Ezra Brooks creams. We get BT cream once in a blue moon but we do have the Bowman Caramel Cream 10 deep on the shelf which is very tasty and at $19.99 is very affordable.

I tried the Boone County bourbon cream while touring their facility. I thought it was pretty good, but much different than the one from Buffalo Trace. Overall, I thought it was a solid product. If you see it, don't hesitate to give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I thought the bottle I passed on a couple of days ago @ $38.99 was way off the mark. This past week, I also passed on ECBP, Little Book, Michters, and a couple of other interesting things at inflated prices. I also passed yesterday on a Weller SR @ $27.99. Yeah, I know. I would have bought one if I didn’t have one open and ten in the bunker. Biba! Joe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
