Those were emptied in my youth, a long time ago.  The lead may explain a few things though.  Now they are bookends/decor in the basement bar.

I remember those from my aunt and uncle's basement during the family Christmas gatherings in the 70s sometime (?). My great great aunt would drink that while playing poker and smoking a cigar.

We had a great evening of billiards, darts, bourbon, food and cigars.  I ended up with about 20 in attendance, most of which played billiards ( more for fun than anything).  No photos were allowed due to a couple of the quests were politicians (local and federal).  We even ended the evening around a bonfire with cigars and a bottle of RR15 .
I have a lot of glasses to wash.  But will deal with that tomorrow.  I won nine of the ten games of 9 ball I played.  Here is the haul: (exceeded size, more pics to follow)

I haven't been able to find a bottle of that. I want to try it. It's available in Ohio, but no luck so far.

Wasn't planning on bourbon shopping, but since I was driving by one of my stores on my way home I figured what the heck. Found a bottle from wharehouse CN-E, so I couldn't help myself. 

I also heard Bruce Russell state on a recent livestream that WTKS will become an export and distillery only product in the future.

New to the forum, but these are the bottles I picked up from Thanksgiving to New Years. It was kind of a wild month or so and I was very lucky…

I found the 24C and 24D in 2 separate stores in my area. I got the C for $100 and the D for $120. I couldn't resist! Another store I favor just listed the D for $170. I will take a pass on that. Enjoy!

I went out for a doctor’s appointment and I stopped across the street at and found these.  Limit one on the WT and the old label Bowman was on the back of the shelf hiding.

I was going to put away some glasses in the upstairs bar this morning.  To my surprise, I I opened the cabinet and found these.  I need to have a conversation with my neighbor.  I believe these found their way into my bar during the party.  What the flock!🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃

Honest - I was passing the shelf and they said “pick me, pick me”. What else could I do?

1792 BiB 

I've always wanted to try it, but have never seen a bottle around here.  I paid $49.99...not sure if that's a good price, but I've been really good at the whole "not buying whiskey" thing, so I treated myself.😁

1792 BiB around here is about the same, when it shows. But we are normally higher than most. Which sucks....

These showed up around me recently so I grabbed these two today.  I skipped the oesk bottle because I have so many of that recipe already at barrel proof.

Bourbonia. Now there is a term I haven’t heard in a minute. I wonder if your Atlanta Homeboy is still patrolling around. 
 

Cheers
