these pics are making me thirsty...
Who makes it? Willett? Maybe a Beam?
Let the ice cool off quickly then tossed it. Delicious.
I freeze my glass. Cools without adding any water. Works great, except for those that need a few drops to open up the flavor a bit.
Well, I only bought this because I had to taste the difference. The mash smells like straight corn sugar, but it's pretty mild in taste with the rye and barley coming through.
I'd still rather have horse soldier or whistle pig for the money.

had an Iron Maiden labeled ESB a while ago, (after dinner) now on Buff Trace #2 or 3,
good boubon for the money,
not tried Horse Soldier, yet,
but did try Whistle Pig when it came out here,
$70 or so a bottle , and no better than Wild Turkey 101, infact 101 is better,
JMHO of course,
Odd, Buffalo Trace is more expensive than whistle pig here. $50 vs $40.
First time I have tried this. Most excellent in my opinion. Will add this to any type of bug out bag for sure!
How much does that bottle cost in your neck of the woods? I went through lots of those when they were around $39 here, then they suddenly jumped about $10. GlenDronach makes good stuff!!
Been saving the last sip of this one. Not likely going to replace it at the price they are...
Are these available in stores or distillery?
30,000 bottles released this year.
A portion went overseas. A friend got 3 at double MSRP. We opened one last night. Should be an annual release.
I should mention. It’s a top 10 bottle for me. Phenomenal. I’ll pay double MSRP if given the opportunity. Better than Pappy’s (any of them). Better than usual “unicorns”.

That’s what I have been hearing to.
I did find a Jack Daniels Barrel Proof RYE. Clocking in at 139.8 proof. Fricking delicious! Drinks like low 120’s. All concentrated flavor. Highly recommended.

A pseudo-Sazerac. A single rocks glass with small puddle of simple syrup, 10-12 dashes of Peychaud's bitters, 2 Oz of Sazerac rye, good ice to fill then stir. Added a small float of Absinthe and a few drops of lemon bitters on top.
Watching American Graffiti and decided to open one of my dusties. The bottles of "Old Harper" in the liquor store scene were Old Taylor.
A number of years ago I was in a small liquor store in a crappy part of town with a friend and walked out with a bunch of stuff they were happy to part with. Among them were four 1 liter 6 year old Old Taylor made in Frankfort (National Distillers). Paid the sticker price of $13.99 each for them.
Also got a Bourbon Heritage Collection I.W. Harper there but gave that one away to a friend's son.

Good find. Most of my best bottles came from a liquor store in the hood.
You don’t see too many thugs on the stoop shooting dice while sipping weller.
I found two dusty bottles of 2012 Blanton’s SFTB from in a small market after Irma ravished St. Maarten. $90/per
They were stuffed high up on top of a shelf behind some cheap brandy bottles.

A friend brought me 3 selections from Moriarty. HH, EC and Willett barrel finishes.
Everyone loves a deal.
Mayflower Hotel in DC. JM Cigar Blend. Can’t find it in the computer so the two bartenders look at each other and one says “just give it to him for the price of the other one”
$17
“Uh, make it a double”

I got this yesterday. I kicked my last bottle over a year ago. One of my favorite bottles.
Cracked it last night and absolutely delicious. The burnt marshmallow, toast, vanilla, caramel. So good!
I'm in Jersey right now taking the kids to Fright Fest. Just grabbed a Shenks and Bombergers at a local store.

One of my favorites. The liquor stores here in DC will give you a stroke looking at bottles like this. I just saw the M10 Rye, which this is so much better IMO, for $900
Nice Pours fellas!

900 is just insane for M10 anything. I like the M10 rye, have it on the shelf. But MBSR is better and this MBSTR is the best of all of them IMHO. I paid 200 for this one. Little steep but I needed it back in my life. Might grab another
Did you finish the bottle? Nice deal!Everyone loves a deal.

I have been looking but cannot find it anywhere in Oregon.
200 is actually good to better than average now. I agree. Incredible. Mines half done
Quick update
Shenks has always been overhyped and Bombergers has been excellent but overpriced unless you got it at retail...
I read some 2023 releaze Shenks reviews and they said it was excellent. Well I opened mine and it's absolutely delicious. Flavorful, lasting and very unique with a well done balanced oak finish.

I have’20 and ‘21. Both are great. Still need to get Bombergers.
