Bourbon Scout Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Bought a few bottles of EW BiB on sale for $16.99 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 I recently picked up the BBC Origin series BiB 6 yr wheater and a variety of Russell's Reserve SiB local store picks. I've already tasted the BBC and it's surprisingly good with its strong point being the lush mouthfeel. It's still a bit young/grain forward but the doughy wheat grain flavor is still quite enjoyable. I'm guessing this stuff at 8 or 10 years might be incredible. I opened one of the RRSiB picks and this one from warehouse F is epic. Great purchase. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a replacement OFBP replacement of a really good pick. She “heard it’s pretty good” That sounds somewhat like the answer I used to give certain patients when they asked if their certain specific doctor was good. Maybe you should send her a sample… Edited February 15, 2023 by 0895 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double C's Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 was running low on my current bottle of BTBC, so I ran out to the one place I can sometimes find it at. Got the last one on the shelf and sampled their Penelope picks. Never tried this brand before and was happy enough from the sample to fork over the $ to grab a bottle of the Architect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing special about the Japan-only age stated 8 year WT, it’s just a neat novelty bottle for the bunker that I just so happened to have an opportunity for my cousin to pick up. A while back he got me a Four Roses Super Premium from Japan. Another neat novelty bottle is MM with the temporarily reduced ABV. I like keeping those unopened because they’re fun to own and talk about with any guests that are interested. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
