I think I’m on a Van Winkle 15 waitlist.

Fingers crossed.

Cool bottle, been hearing a lot about this one recently. Is it all hype or does it have the juice to back it up?

Anyone know what all the hype is about this Japanese Whiskey. Got it as gift from my boys, they said it’s sold out everywhere so don’t drink it in one sitting !

Small Batch is pretty solid for a $55 bottle.

Enjoyed it.

Small batch is great. Get the uncut and unfiltered if you can find it. It’s good stuff.

If you like MGP juice, it's going to be a hit for you. Aaron contracts the high-rye mashbill (60% corn, 36% rye, 4% malted barley) for all of his stuff. It's spicier than a lot of other bottles out there (think pepper and clove). I like the small batch, but the Uncut Unfiltered can get a bit hot for me. It's worth picking up a bottle to try it out.

I also feel most of the batches have been better than the SiBs.

JD10 is just like most of the reviews say.

Banana Bomb and one demential.

It is a fantastic bottle though and worth grabbing.

I'm on the hunt for a Coyhill.

Secondary prices for it are insane already.

Def not paying that.

A buddy of mine just gave me a M10 Rye as a Thank You for loaning him a Rolex box for a sale he made. He got two bottles and gave me one. I'll take it! Haven't popped it yet, I had to pack it right away, as we are in the process of moving, but I'm sure it'll get cracked shortly after we get moved and I break open the 30 boxes of booze I packed up (to my wife's dismay...)

Full Everose GMT

Got lucky at a local AD.

Sold the farm and snagged it.

One watch from now on.

I hate both of these hobbies....
