What Bourbon did you Purchase the Spring of 2023?

Nothing spectacular just good whiskey at a good price.

 

A couple of KC12 @ $43 a piece, a couple of FRSiB @ $33 a piece, and a WT101 and WTR101 at $18 a piece.  

 

A Cheap Bastard kind of day.

I have a feeling that they are going to go to 700ml for their entire line. 

I can see that but I saw quite a few 1 L bottles of various sorts in London last year (not that I was looking very closely).  While I might understand it, I would like to hear an explanation of why they think that the US doesn't have a large enough market to support a 750 ml bottle for JD products (yes, I know Old No. 7 comes in 750ml).  It is not like it doesn't sell sound here.  I see it as nothing more than shrinkflation.

didn't actually purchase this today; it was gifted to me by a client of the bike shop I manage. Always wanted one of these, but never had the opportunity to even taste one, much less buy a bottle at retail. I'm very excited obviously. It's a 2019 bottling.image.thumb.jpeg.b5d1a45e0c877e3192ef8a27583cca3d.jpeg

Oh that is a good one.  Arguably one of the best years for OFBB.

Enjoy!

I went with: EW 1783 (some with special label to honor veterans), OF 100, and family size FRYL.  Receipt is upstairs, but I assure you, all on the cheap. 🥃😉

after a little OF100 as a base pour, this was fantastic. BF has never been my favorite legacy distiller, but this is the best I've had from them.    so far.....

Bought a 1L bottle of OGD BiB @ $23.99 in my local search for OGD 114.  Hmmmmmm . . . . it did come home with me, Harry!   🤩

I took stock and found my shelves to be lacking in OF 100.  Picked up some Maraska maraschino cocktail cherries because the bourbon was lonely in that brown paper bag.

Did an order from Frootbat last night. Prices were consistent with my LS. Got 10% off with my first order. They couldn't apply free shipping($20) discount for Fathers Day. Called and they sent me a seperate  code to use later. Anyone have experience with them??

I had a day off and my wife is out of town, so I decided to do a bourbon hunt in South Central Tn.  I found all of these sitting on the shelf (at different stores). Most were msrp, a couple were what I would consider high retail.

I picked up a few more yesterday.

I always pick up a JD BP whenever I see the proof over 130. I found it at the state store for the state minimum which is fantastic $67. The Bookers and the Knob Creek I picked up at a small liquor store near my house they were only a couple dollars over state minimum.20230622_145828.thumb.jpg.45afe7214dbbfd436e64fcc4100c4b4d.jpg20230622_150002.thumb.jpg.2c48a195de0f786220ac5a5c50aec1cc.jpg

The wife locked the keys in her trunk today at the grocery store.  So, I swing into my regular LS on the way home.  It has been awhile since I added anything to the bunker but couldn’t say no to these at msrp.  I seriously need to clean the camera lense on my phone!🥴

Ran out to grab some lunch today, and stopped by one of my locals.  The Statesman was an easy pickup ip as I really enjoy it, and I’m out.  Picked up the Bowman Port because it has been forever since I last had it.  But the Ezra 7yr Full Proof Rye reallly intrigued me.  I kinda like my day!  I’ll be into all of them by nights end…🤪

I recently saw the OE7 Rye Full Proof.  It was a reasonable price.  However, I made a strategic pass since I had a strategic purchase in mind.  It will be interesting to read your thoughts on it.
