Chupacabras Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Think I'll pick up a bottle of the PH 122.6 on my way home tonight, good idea. I like to pick up one non-replacement fifth a week anyways so this is as good a bottle as any other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburlowski Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Found a couple of 1.75L bottles of Weller 12. I normally don't go for the big bottles but these days a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bromike666 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Bad news about my GTS 137, UVA in NYC says that can't ship liquor out of state and canceled my order:hot: Anyone in Brooklyn should go check it out, they said they had one bottle. I can't confirm that it is the 137 but if your in the hood it might be worth dropping by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chupacabras Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I did pick up the PH and I totally get why people mistake it for a wheater. Very interesting bourbon, gonna have to experiment a bit to find just the right amount of water to cut this with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilsFan Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 While in Bardstown yesterday, I stopped into Toddy's to pick up an ORVW 10/107 ($35) and ended up picking up an EC 18 ($42). Turns out, I took the Heaven Hill tour and ended up sampling EC 18 (very different from most I've tried but I like it) And then at the Gazebo, sampled the ORVW 10/107 and the ORVW 15/107, like 'em both a lot...wish the 15 was still around.-Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgilbertva Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Yesterday I was able to obtain some Willett Family Reserve 7 yr bourbon (details under Collectibles/Dusty Hunting). I put another bottle on reserve, plus a 6 yr Willett and if all goes well, another 15 yr. I haven't had the 6 yr, but the 7 and especially the 15 are outrageously good. None of these are the Pot Still version, BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drunkenjayhawk Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Got in 2 bottle of Jim Beam White - one on the bottom has a 2 digit of 69 and is 86 proof. The other shows no date and is 80 proof. Both are tax strip era and show just 5 generations of beams the side of the bottle. Best thing was they were only 15 dollars + shipping. Also expecting a 1985 Old Fitz , 10 year Eagle Rare. Times is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipped Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 This has been an exciting week for me. After struggling to find a liquor store in my area (South of Boston) that carries anything other than Jim Beam products and MM, I was tipped off to check out Yankee Spirits. Went there 2 days ago, and they carry about 20 different bourbons, including some of the most highly recommended on this forum. I picked up Buffalo Trace, and Jim Beam Rye (I like Manhattans). I haven't had a chance to try them yet, but will make sure tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACDetroit Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 3 odd balls today! Well not that odd I guess1 - Slope Shoulder OCPR 13yr L'ville bottle1 - King Tut Michter's decanter feels full tax stamp 1978 (I'm sure the cork will not come out nicely) we may have to decant this one. Store owner said I would not open this if I were you! "Why, I asked" He said it's probably bad, plus it might be worth money some day! Baahhh! I say we drink it!!1 - Tiffany & Co. 1776 decanter with Segrams and tax stamp in tact (I'm guessing this is from the late 1970's as well).I had a productive lunch today.

ThomasH Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Hey Tony, with that tut decanter, now you can drink like an Egyptian, drink too much of it and you'll be crawling like one instead of walking. Nice lunch hour catches you made today!Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callmeox Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 One of my co-workers is heading to Chicago for a bowling tournament this weekend and he said that after hearing me talk the place up, he's stopping at Binny's.Along with some Patron Silver and a 1.75 of Absolut for the summer party season, I've got another Weller 12 on the way. :grin: I should just order a case and be done with it.
