I have voyage 14-16 I believe. All excellent. Picked these up today. Taylor was on sale for $40. Woodford Oat is supposed to be in high demand. The 1792 full proof is a barrel select. And the owner gave me a Blanton’s display stand as a gift. |

This seemed like the right whisky for a Polar Explorer II on an early spring day.

Of course, taste is subjective, but I happen to like all the Jefferson offerings. This one in particular is easy to drink and priced right for a starter bourbon. |

This is going to be the Bourbon of the Year for 2019.
Better than the 2016 Limited Rye. Fantastic Stuff. I have one coming now at slightly above MSRP. Get one now if you don't. Will be a $800 bottle soon. |

So here is a question...how do I get a bottle of pappy without paying 1,000+ a bottle? I live in Ohio so all bottles are strictly done through a lottery system and I have never won...I really am not even set on any vintage.
Any advice would be greatly appreciate!!! |

I found a new bar a few blocks from my house offering Old Rip 10 for $15 per 2-2.5 oz pour, and VWSR 12 Lot B for $22/ 2-2.5oz pour. It's otherwise impossible to find in my area, and if you do, it's double that price. Same with Pappy; the bars buy their stock at secondary, so a taste is an arm and a leg... We just don't get a lot of it up in Northern Nevada, since the majority of the allocations go to Vegas (go figure...).

I’ll have to keep an eye out when I hit a whisky bar. I was going to pick up a bottle of Blantons as well but it sold out in less than 2 hours. :(

That’s a fair price for those at a bar. I’d probably order if I saw that price given cocktails and beers are 10 bucks anyways

A Sazerac is hard to beat.

My thoughts, as well. If I'm paying $14 for a glass of Bogle Pinot Noir or $15 for the Ol Rip, I'd take the whiskey any day. I, too, see beer (especially craft beer) creeping up. These little trendy micro breweries will sell a less-than-stellar, just-OK Saison or heavy IPA for $11 for a 10-oz pour. I've definitely found myself pulling away hard from ordering beer when I'm out, unless I'm eating burgers or pizza.

Picked up these two today (well actually the fedex man dropped them off because it’s impossible to get in Ohio)

Good stuff. One of my daily pours. I'm currently on the hunt for a 10-year old Single Barrel. They stopped making it several years ago, but supposedly it's worth the search.

A little “state of the collection” of my bourbon bottles. Terrible picture, I apologize; I’m no photographer. (I have some extra bottles of Blanton's, Weller SR, and Belle Meade Cask Strength stashed away in the pantry, as well...) Second one was last night, Blanton’s in my new Blanton’s glass. My toddler actually left me alone and let me have a drink after work. He was busy watching Moana for the third time that day.
