markandrex Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 With all this talk of SBWB, I assumed it was preordained. Sitting by the pool relaxing with a healthy pour before dinner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCWoody Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 At a casino in Biloxi, of course I brought some good bourbon. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) Picked up a bottle of FRSiB today at Costco. They have sold it for $37.99 for the longest time. However, I have noticed that the stocks have dwindled and they are co-mingling bottles from two barrels. I suspect availability at this price will soon end as it normally runs $47.99 to $54.99 at most retailers. The last bottle I bought at Costco was average so I was hesitant. However, even though the rickhouse location appeared the same, the barrel number looked different. I took a chance. Good call. This one is above average. I will take that with a single barrel. A few pours in and it is worth the price of admission. Edited June 13, 2022 by mbroo5880i 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarSurfer55 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 So I haven't posted as it has been a busy few weeks. Go a new puppy back the week before memorial day. Gettin her settled in now. She and the older dog have been sorting out the pecking order but doing okay (she is winning even though she only weighs 4 lbs). Was at our RV Site last week celebrating our 48th wedding anniversary. I managed to finish off some partial bottles including two TX whiskeys and a BT. Trying to whittle down my RV stash a bit. My other choices were a Weller OA107 and a Blanton's (not bad backups). Glad to be back now. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should correct this, go back and give their homemade juice a whirl. @n811 is right - it’s delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fosmith Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Bottle kill of George Dickel 15yr single barrel K&L pick @ 84.4 barrel proof. According to K&L this is just shy of 18 yo and is so delicious! The low proof doesn't mute the flavors at all, which are deep, complex and intense. An incredible value at $55. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tight metal ring on the bottom of that glass. Is that a coaster, I presume? Either way, it’s a cool vessel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
