What did you purchase this Spring? (2024)

Recommended Posts

Local grocery had their 25% off sale. Cheap Bastard was on the prowl. 

 

Grabbed 2x FRSiB and a HH7 at $33,74 each.  One of the FRSiB was UN.  Never heard of that warehouse.  I opened it first.  It is pretty good.

 

Also, grabbed KC9, HT High Road Rye and WT101 on the cheap.

Dunno if I did as well as you but I took advantage of a local grocery store's promotion and got 2 bottles of JD SiB for $29 each.

Asked my LS to bring in some KC12, heard some good things in here. Don't know if $57 is a good price. One came home with me. Will try out tonight....

These are only my 2nd, 3rd and 4th bottles purchased this year as I’m working on reducing my horde...err umm...I mean stash.  The 12 year was obtained from an auction, and the other 2 while traveling.   I had no intent to go all turkey.   It just kinda happened because I read that some of the Kentucky Spirits right now are coming out of the CN warehouses and I ran across a couple different ones (a CN-E and a CN-F).

It was a good week.  Gold and shiny.  🤪I can’t wait to open the President’s Choice.

I won in the OFPS lottery about a week ago.  I am just waiting on UPS like a child on Christmas morning.  It is my “white whale” that has always eluded me.

local LS got a new pick in, sampled it and really enjoyed it, so I caved and picked one up.

That's about as low as you'll see. I've seen it at $70 or even $80.

 

I got a bunch at $55, well worth it.

Today was our state drop.

I can't seem to convince my wife we don't need any more CCs, but I guess I'll keep her around for the WLWs, Pappys etc she seems to always find 🥰

Our daughter also scored for us. The 4R was dumped on my 60th birthday. I think the specific dump date on 4R is new. My older bottles just have the month and year.

Parents got me two ETL's at $50 each in yesterday's OHLQ drop. One is for Obree.

 

Also swapped 8 EHT SmB ($40 each with taxes, so $320, but less $40 cash other guy gave me = $280 all in) for 1 EHT BP #12, 1 EHT SiB, and Stagg 23c.

 

Friends in Paris said they'd bring back two bottles, looking for W12 and SFTB.

 

Not a bad couple of days.

The President's Choice.  Did Joe or Dr. Jill select that bourbon?  Maybe Commander right before he bit a Secret Service Agent?  🤪

Solid! Which FR recipe?  Where do you store all of these riches that you pick up every month?  I assume in a very large basement or pole barn.  However, if you should need additional storage capacity, I would suggest that Indiana is stellar for bottle storage and, for a mere pittance, I would manage your Indiana inventory.  I am here for you my friend.

Solid price. I rarely see it for less in Indy. Enjoy!

was out grocery shopping and couldn't resist a stroll through the liquor aisle. It's on the way back up front to the checkout anyways. Turns out there was a bunch of wine & spirits on clearance.  Having not tried this one before, I couldn't pass up a $25 price.

It's  an OBSQ 11yr 3mo.  To me the 4F BP are a lot like the EC BP in that they are all very good and some are exceptional. 

We have a lot bunkered for now, we just had another boy go out on his own and his old bedroom is being redesigned as a bourbon bar.

But, we do currently  have plenty out for friends and family.20240624_194542.thumb.jpg.4312130e7eadcd2f82c96c36cfbc5751.jpg

We ran across the EC B524 yesterday. It was $79.99 which has been the going retail price around here for a private store. The state store is $74.99, when they have them in the allocation drop, so 5 bucks more is fine with me.

Mail call!  Really excited about this one!  I’m thinking this deserves a special occasion.

In the meantime, back to the pool with the neighbors.  It is in the 90s and their pool liner mysteriously was torn.

There was a young black bear in the area (140 lbs and about 18 months old).  I’m not saying for certain it was him but it was a pretty good tear.

So, while they are waiting for a replacement, they are cooling off in ours.

I went to a doctors appointment this morning and decided to stop in a little LS the was flattened a few years ago in the tornados.  They are near campus and cater to the Fireball crowd.  So I was surprised to find this.
