Thanks!

We're at Singer Island, Florida. It's about 20 minutes, or so,  from Palm Beach.

My man! That bourbon is the best known to man!  People searching high and low for Pappy are misguided and mistaken. IMHO, WT101 kicks Pappy's ass six ways to Sunday.  Yet, the best whiskey is always the whiskey in your hand.  In this case, WT101.  Enjoy!

I couldn't agree more.

I like wt101...if you want to argue that the wild turkey line up beats the van wrinkle lineup, or that pappy is over rated, then I can get on board. 

 

If you think WT101 is better than PVW 15, then I doubt you've ever t tried PVW15. The hype is overblown, but there is a reason people like it.

That's a great price. The last I've seen here in metro Detroit was $35.99 for a 750 mL bottle.

Not a purchase per se, but rather a trade to replace an empty bottle given to a fellow SB'er:

 

 

Weller Centennial 10yr.jpg

 

Fully sealed and still a great fill.  Unfortunately (I guess), it's not a "Louisville" bottle that would have guaranteed Stitzel-Weller distillate, but one of the three (3) variations of a "Frankfort" bottle that may or may not contain S/W whiskey.  Oh, well - it certainly looks beautiful and she will great to share with some good friends who can really appreciate it.   🥳

I really like Popeyes fried chicken. As far as fast foods go, it is extremely legit. And I am a fried chicken junky. Fried chicken is my last meal type shit. I have a friend who thinks Popeyes is the worst chicken ever.....🤔

 

Prost!!  Phil

Damn Phil, I am right there with ya, on both the Chicken and WT fronts. Different strokes as they say.

I really appreciate the empty Centennial bottle Frank. As you know, it completed my empty Weller collection. 😎

The PVW15 is my favorite iteration of the Pappy lineup and I think that it's better than the WT101, but it's been so long since I've had the Pappy, (2017), that I can't make an informed opinion.

If you want to send me a bottle, I'll be happy to do a SBS and share the results.😁

Need another Weller 107 paper label for the collection?  We'll need to empty it in Bardstown next April!  🤩

Just my opinion, that was such a better looking package compared to what they have now.

I still suck at the whole "not buying anything", but we're on vacation,  so I have an excuse.

I couldn't pass up a 1L BT for $26.99.

The other 2 bottles are picks.

They let you "try before you buy"

I had a doctor’s appointment this morning and went into a nearby LS.

They had this mixed in with the regular bourbon.  When I had it rung up it was $44.99 + tax.  I asked the clerk and she just pointed to the register.

Oh well, I tried.

Does this say “Distilled By 13thColony”?  I’ve never seen any 13th Colony spirit of any kind say that.  It’s usually something like “produced by”.  Regardless, nice color on it.

Nice deal, with attempts at honesty added. One of you got me one, not quite that good of a price. I look forward to both your notes and trying it myself.

Picked up this Wyoming Whiskey Outryder  while out for lunch.  First nosing and initial sips are very nice.  Particularly, the total tongue coating mouthfeel and forever finish.  Lots going on in the flavor department.  There’s an herb note in there.  But, this whiskey is teasing flavors from start to finish.

I will check it out when we get inside later.  We are lounging by the pool with some WT101 over a large cube.

pics to follow.

Ouch.  F..king ouch. It is usually $25 for a 750 ml in Indy.  It disappears occasionally and then shows up like a Caitlyn Clark is being mistreated story.

What did you ask her?  Do you want more donuts or cookies?  🤪
