What bottle did you open in 2025 ?

Another decent Lone Elm.  A honey finished wheat whiskey. Enjoying this one…

This has always been my favorite batch.  Glad I was able to make some room on the shelf to open another.

The Pennsy state stores appear to have purchased a crap ton of Stellum Rye and marked down the bottles to 27 bucks.  Cask strength MGP rye for 27 bucks!

 

Actually it's a blend which is 95/5 MGP- dominant,  but the dill is tempered by some Kentucky style rye in the blend.   It tastes more like Willett rye than anything else,  but the smidgen of corn in the blend adds sweetness.   Fred says this is hell of a cask strength blend for less than a pack of bully sticks!

I wasn’t aware of this bottle (probably because I haven’t been going to stores lately,)

I think I need to look for it. Just when I thought I’d found bourbon zen

 

Cheers

It was kinda the opposite for me in my area for a while. No OF BP picks, but one store did a 90 proof one a while back. I bought one and really liked it. It didn’t seem to sell very well. Over the course of 3 or 4 months I bought about a case. I still have one left. Then they did a BP pick. Of course  I bought one. I liked it well enough, but it was almost too hot. I didn’t buy another one.

 

I recently opened this one too. I think I prefer this one over the 1924
