fishnbowljoe Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 THIS is why I stopped at Binny’s today. The handles weren’t on sale, so I bought other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well not me. I loved the old Small Batch and have not liked the change. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Man down, man up. FWIW, I don’t like the new MM 101 label near as much as I do the old. I just bought this new label bottle. It will be opened shortly. I have a couple of the old label bottles in the bunker. I will keep at least one around for sentimental reasons. Hey, MM was basically my gateway bourbon. FWIW, I was at one of our get togethers in Bardstown with @Vosgar when the new, domestic MM 101 was released in 375’s at the distillery. A shout out to @BourbonJoe and @fricky for buying a bottle for everyone to taste. After @Vosgar and I had a taste, we immediately went to MM to grab a couple of bottles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Man down, man up, part #2. I had an empty handle of MM, so I decided to go ahead and make a batch of my HH BiB Blend. Most of what was left over went into the other bottle of my HH BIB Blend. I still have some Dant left as it was a liter bottle, but this too shall soon pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious, what bourbons do you purchase repeatedly at around $60 that are better? Or maybe to be fair, maybe my question should be $40-60 that are better (since 40 was the old price that we loved)? I can only think of a couple myself but I'm probably missing something. Knob Creek SiB & 12yr, Rare Breed, Larceny BP, SAOS, JDSBBP are just a few at a similar price point as Baker's that I buy with some regularity and all of them are much better value than, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK those are all good ones alright. I guess it depends on where you live. Where I'm at KC12 and Larceny BP are rarities and are more expensive than Baker's (Baker's always on the shelf here). I am a fan of JDSBBP too, but to me most of its appeal is the intensity of flavor due to its extremely high proof. I could never drink JDSBBP on a regular basis without proofing it way down (where it doesn't shine nearly as much). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted Friday at 03:47 AM Share Posted Friday at 03:47 AM (edited) On vacation this week and knocked out this 375ml tonight (not all tonight….. just finished it tonight). Wine glass was the best option in our cabin. EC is still a good value for the money. This week has gone by way too fast!
