Join contest SubscribeEver had Joseph Finch?I used to drink a lot of Woodford and Maker’s Mark, until I was introduced to ‘good’ bourbon by some folks with far more discerning palates than mine. They’re good, just too sweet for me now.
My brother loves Bulleit, but I just don’t like it… It’s not bad, I just don’t like the flavor for some reason.
Basil Hayden is actually a really good bourbon for the price; it’s what I usually use to introduce folks to bourbon.
For sippin’ bourbon, pretty much anything from the Buffalo Trace line works for my palate. So, Buffalo Trace (as mentioned above, used to just use it for mixed drinks), Weller, EH Taylor, Eagle Rare, and of course Blanton’s.
I used to have a standing order for a case of Blanton’s every 6 months out at the Class VI store at Randolph…at $26 a bottle! LoL. Those days are long gone now of course. Down to 5 and 1/2 bottles though, and haven’t seen one in the wild in over a year, so I’m rationing those! LoL
I’ve had Pappy, and it’s good, but for the money (and availability) I far prefer Blanton’s and/or Eagle Rare…sometimes the EH Taylor depending on what we’re having for dinner.

Weller’s is an excellent wheated bourbon, if you like that variation. Smoke Wagon, out of Las Vegas of all places, is a pretty good bourbon too, but a little hot for my taste. I usually just step right up to a rye if that’s what I’m feelin’.
Speaking of rye… I pretty much only drink Whistle Pig now. Once you have it, you can’t go back to any others, LoL.
Edit: Only exception is 3 shots of Rittenhouse rye every year on 19 November… The taste actually kind of sucks, especially for doing shots, but it has to be Rittenhouse rye on that date…for reasons!
Calm down, we already know that flames naturally shoot out of your ass princess.No I drive MOPARs I don't need the sparkle exhaust.
The bourbon rabbit hole almost as deep as the pew pew buying. Secondary markets have made some things simply absurd to seek out. I’m sitting on 100 or so bottles. All opened, some duplicates saved for when those run out. If I buy it or win it, we drinking it. Pop em!I like Elijah well enough but I don't like chasing batches, I wish you luck.
Blanton's ... I had a bottle I was sipping on a while back I picked up for $60-something then a guy came over and flipped out begging for the "honor" of a taste ... I was confused then he started explaining the horses and the obsession with collecting them so I checked the price and I don't drink Blanton's anymore.
Same thing happened with Balvenie 21, last bottle I bought was sub $70 and when I went to replace it the price was $125+ ...
I have no idea what the price is on either of them anymore.
Mopar’s are gay enough, they don’t to be any more flamingNo I drive MOPARs I don't need the sparkle exhaust.
Famous words of a CA owner “I dont know what happened, this thing was shooting great yesterday!”
Laughs in airplane owner. Fuck people that move next to an existing noise maker (track airport gun range) and then get it shut down.Lol, I've seen that very car in person. Extra mufflers are to make sound restrictions for Laguna Seca. I've seen a lot of crazy stuff hung off the back of cars there over the years in the name of keeping things quiet enough not to get black flagged for noise. Someone else I knew used what looked like a small pellet smoker bolted to the back bumper of their 69 Camaro to keep it under the noise limit, the stock exhaust tips dumped into it and he could attach and remove it in about 5 minutes. Looked weird but did the job.
Very annoying that the people in the houses that were built long after the track was there are constantly complaining about the preexisting situation they chose to move into and are always trying to get the track shut down. At least the county tossed the latest lawsuit...
The absolute BEST description of the BEAR PIT…
“Is 6.5 creedmoor a good round to start with?”
That’s called 2 pumps, maybe 3
Need to add this to the cabinet to be a real American
True. But Laguna Seca brings its' own kind of stupid to the table. Laguna Seca shares real estate with the County's rifle and pistol range, and the Monterey Peninsula International Airport is less than 5 miles down the road. The people who built up in between all that are trying to get all three shut down.Laughs in airplane owner. Fuck people that move next to an existing noise maker (track airport gun range) and then get it shut down.
You never saw my “fuck you, I’ll see you tomorrow” meme thenThe absolute BEST description of the BEAR PIT…
Still a hottie today.
Were you at the Buc-ee's in Daytona last week?Only explanation I can think of for that abomination is that he signed up for a very expensive, non-refundable track day, and then found out they had a Decibel limit that he exceeded, so he had to “install” a temp work aroumd.
