Im glad people like it, but all I get is a mouthful of toothpaste. So much mint. I’ll drink it, but Im not buying it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parksmart Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 For a “budget” bottle, this was tasty. Gonna go grab another from the bunker, and have to pick up an order that includes several bottles of VOB100 for a SBS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCwhammie Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Down goes my last bottle of B517. It's a fantastic bourbon, but dare I say I like B520 a little better. The reason I compare those 2 is the closeness in proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCwhammie Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 If these were $55 or less I'd be inclined to occasionally buy one. They just don't tick enough boxes for me to pay the $70+ they now cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueby Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Bought this bottle on the day my dad died in Oct. of 2017. My brother was here last night so we drank the last little pour that was left. A very nice elegant single barrel. Slightly nutty. Was like an older barrel proof Evan Williams. Dad would have said I spent way too much on a bottle of hooch. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledInBond Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 We are moving in a few weeks. Fun task of packing up / cleaning out the house now. I’ve decided to chip away at lowish open bottles. I just killed off a 2017 Four Roses limited small batch, a WFE 11 year, and a SFTB 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 Knocked out this older bottle of KC today. Mostly out of interest to make shelf space for another KC. Likely a store pick this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Killed a Rutledge era Small Batch, I believe this one was bottled in 2013. Nice bourbon. I think i have 1 or 2 more of these somewhere. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kepler Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Emptied that KC single barrel store pick that has had my fancy lately. Not once did that bottle not hit the spot no matter how my palate was working. Glad I have more of these from the same barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the perfect balance if oak and caramel with a toned back Beam peanut. Ive been nursing that bottle for almost 2 years. I have one backup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCwhammie Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Here are the 3 I finished this week. The New Riff is tonight's casualty. My plan is to not buy anything until the year ends.
