Nice view out your window.

I've been thru Vermont once on the way to Maine, about 28 years ago.

I remember one area we could see down a valley from the expressway and saw and old church with a very tall steeple it was postcard perfect.

Same here Leif, I haven't opened one yet.

That green label FRSB was released when Seagram's owned them, I assume it was export only. Is that correct?

Yes Oscar it was an export. I think it was sold a short period here in Europe before the current SB version.

Please step away from the light.....

While I am proud of my collection and have posted pics here, please do not feel that some of our obsessive behavior is reason to go overboard. I'm not married, have no children, and am not responsible for the financial well being of anyone else on this planet. If it were otherwise I doubt I would have what I do. So before you buy that bottle just to see what it tastes like, if you're in my neighborhood and I have it, drop in.

Oh, and I almost forgot, congrats Oscar on a very nice collection well presented. I did however feel a tear generate upon each fallen soldier. It's nice to see Senior Citizens get the reverence they deserve....

See Dane, now you've gone and made me feel an emotional attachment to each and every bottle I've ever thrown out :bigeyes: :slappin:

...Some guys in this thread have better bars at home than the commercial ones...

You made me snort bourbon through my nose with that one!

To look thru this thread is to see some truly amazing collections of burbon. One day I might get a decent collection and it presented properly. I cant even post my measly collection at this time due to some technical problems.

Going back through this thread, I came upon my first showing of my bunker in April of last year. I've purchased quite a bit in the last 12 months so here's some updated pics.

Surprisingly, D.C. has quite a few stores that have older SW Old Fitz BIB sitting on the shelves. In fact, if you look at Sijan's latest entry, he too found a number of bottles of Old Fitz. I'm headed back into D.C. next week to poke around.

Not where I keep my bottles, I just put what bourbons I have there for the purpose of the picture. There is a bottle missing, my EW Green Label which is in the kitchen. I was mixing a marinade with it earlier. The shot glasses represent about half I have collected.

The red wine. I’m a few bottles down as you can see.

Bar006.jpg

The wine fridge in the dinning room for the white wines and the Blue Moon Belgian White beer.

I have a few of these. My collection may not be a big as some, but what I have is good stuff. And the wet bar isn't very big so I've had to adjust to accomodate the various things. My collection contains several glasses, tumblers, and steins that are collectors peices but that will have to wait for another day.

Oh, and sorry about the picture size, I didn't realize they would be that large.

Michael, that's a fine collection. It's great to see someone who knows what they drink and stocks their bar accordingly.:cool:

Looking back over this thread and seeing some impressive bunkers/stashes. Some unique bottles and some great looking old bottles. Saw my pic on p. 14. Boy, I've accumulated a few more. I'll have to get out the camera. It will take some work as the bunker is stuffed into a basement closet. And a box in the garage--gotta bring that in as the weather warms up as the garage gets pretty hot in the summer; that can't be good for whisky. I'll try to include the single malts and tequilas, too.

Here is the 'stash', the only (temporarily) inviolable bottle I have:

post-367-14489813846215_thumb.jpg

Fact is, I have pondered bringing it to the Sampler later this month as a prop, but feared some over-zealous soul might pop the top -- which will eventually happen, of course, but on MY schedule. For now, it will remain at home.

For the record, it was distilled in 1969, bottled in 1975. And the 'wrapping' around the cork is nothing more than Parafilm-M, which I use to preclude evaporation. The seal is intact.

As I've said before, it's not how big it is, it's how you use it.

First the liquor cabinet. It's not very large, but it's an antique, having been in my wife's family for several generations.

They say you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
