1L bottle for Mrs. Skinsfan.

$27.98

Not the best price, but not bad.

This one is on the "allocated" shelf too. ?

Found all these in the last week. The HM10yr was on the shelf for $40. Both ECBP's were hidden behind the counter at different stores but offered when I specifically asked for it after a friendly chat, $63 and $65. I am back to my 3 bottles of ECBP quota bunkered, so will pass on them until this years batch A shows up. The KC cask strength rye was just because I am trying to expand my rye palate. So far I am a big fan of CEHT rye and Pikesville, but have not liked any of the 2 year old age stated stuff from smaller bottlers, so am sticking with stuff with some age. Anyone tried the KCCS rye? It will definitely be the next one I uncork.

I love the ECBPs and have lately increased my appreciation of the KCCSR, and I will be having some of that tonight.

Named after the county I live in and have called home for 20 years.  Distilled and bottles by Luxco in Bardstown.

Went back to pick up the recommended OF... stood there for 3-4 minutes and overlooked this a number of times! So excited I found one!

Batch A from last year? That's practically a dusty by today's standards.

A good batch is worth overpaying

I bought some OGD BIB to honor Harry as B.O.T.Y.  One for the cabinet.  One for the bunker.  I have other open bottles to kill, but it's on deck.

The A 19 batch is/was really good.

my leader of the 19’s for sure.

I dunno about clearing the shelf, but an extra won’t be regretted.

I have a slightly funny relationship with this bourbon.

Each time I find it (3x now), I end up getting the last one sitting lonely on the shelf.

So I couldn’t just leave this one behind...

:)

At least you have a relationship. I can’t find it below $75.

I was reading up on this last week. Any age statement and what did you pay if you don’t mind me asking? Please post your thoughts once you crack it!

 

Thanks,

Price went down recently in my county to $36 and now on sale for $32. Hard to pass up when it used to be $43 I believe.

MMCS went down to $40 at K&L so I pulled the trigger.  Never seen it that low, much less $32... :o

No age statement and haven’t cracked it one yet.  I got it for $42 but have seen it also at $52

There was Old Fitzgerald after Very Old Fitzgerald after Very, Very Old Fitzgerald.  But how many have seen Very Extra Old Fitzgerald (in a gift pack with two shot glasses)???

Says "10 Years Old", " Bottled in Bond", "Bottled in 1956".  Nice gold veined bottle.  I think it was worth a C-note just for the box and glasses, no?   ?
