Wish Iowa state could have held onto him longer

Curious on this too, I was thinking about making a poor man's 4 grainI keep forgetting to pick one of those up to try making the Poorer Man's Pappy. I picked up the other half of that recipe a while back, keep forgetting the Larceny. 2/3 Maker's Cask Strength, 1/3 Larceny.
When I'm doing blends like that, do I need to age in barrel or just pour and mix in a carafe or empty bottle and go from there? -
I've got one of those stashed away but not opened yet, how is it?Fresh bottle tonight: -
Get out of here with that common sense, this is bourbon we're talking aboutThanks. I wish Buffalo Trace would just print the year on the the darn bottle. This site is quite helpful: https://www.bourbonex.com/forums/topic/21/stagg-jr-release-info-batches -
Each batch is a different proof so you can tell which batch by the proofStagg Jr guys, is there to determine the batch number on the bottle? -
Drinking a Russell's reserve store pick tonight, can't do too much more complaining.

You are telling me...Man alive. That’s not right. -
Haha they don't put them out at the gift shop, only small batch.Do you even gift shop bro? -
Texas is lucky for some of these things, I've never actually seen an eh Taylor sib in a store in Kentucky that wasn't outrageously priced. Only time I've bought a few was back visiting Iowa.We’ll see what you his year brings, but I can usually find a couple bottles of EH Taylor Single Barrel on the shelf in Houston every year. Small Batch is a pass for me. I can hit some stores in the burbs if I’m really hard up for Single Barrel.
EHT Barrel Proof was a gift from a buddy who on the last days of being the “bourbon guy” at a store near my office. I’ve collected/enjoyed since 2017, and I’ve only seen one bottle of Barrel Proof.
I’ll buy the EHT Rye every time I see it. Third best rye in the Buffalo Trace portfolio. Obviously a huge gap between Handy and Sazerac 18, but EHT Rye blows the doors off of Baby Saz. -
Two pours tonight at a local place in celebration of them opening up Friday at 1/3 capacity

I've got a bunch and I really like them, tasty drinker that isn't impossible to find.Finally got a Russels Reserve SB store pick. Can’t wait to try it tonight -
Better grab a few more since these stupid things are also out of control on secondary pagesFirst time I've bought it, just thought I'd ask! With confirmation, I'm going back today to get another one- 1

They got you good man.... willing to give you 65 to get your money back for it. Blanketons is just the worstDid I get ripped off? $65 at Twin Liquors and they wouldnt let me buy 2- 3
-
That tooI'd say fuck the retailers charging prices for bourbons 4x what they should retail for. -

I'd fast forward through the Fred Minnick segment of the Bourbon Pursuit Podcast, Episode 253. What a preachy douche. His feelings are very hurt that us bourbon hunters are looking for good covid sales right now.
Wow, you weren't kidding. What a douche, even though the secondary prices of bourbon have actually exploded instead of going down, but that didn't stop him.
Four roses barrel strength, rock hill farms, and elmer and probably others have gone up by 100 to 200 dollars secondary pricing in the last 3 weeks. Its some bullshit.

Yep, not sure why kbs went and CBS didn't.Weird. Basically the same beer imo. -
The kbs was marked down to 9.99 too but those were going a lot fasterYeah that's a steal. KBS four packs collecting dust at $25 around here. -
Had an entire pallet on sale for 9.99 per 4 pack at the local place, might as well.

Damn, send both of those to meSaw an 18 year Elijah Craig yesterday. Didnt pull the trigger at $140.
Did get a GG store pick 4 Roses single barrel, barrel strength though. -
Not sure if it's Texas yet but four roses small batch select is awesome and readily available (at least where I live) .Which is better, Four Roses Small Batch or Single Barrell?- 1
-
I mean it should be in that 70 range msrp from willett, secondary (or sketchy liquor stores) I have no clue on that particular barrel. Maybe someone more in the know can chime in for ya. I have 2 stores where I live that are pretty much msrp for everything with a lottery system for customers. I'm also in Kentucky though.How about the "rose in paradise" 6y release? Trying to figure out how bad the liquor store guy did my dad.
-
Think I've gotten a few 6 year single barrels around 70 bucks or in that ballpark in the last year.What’s Ballpark msrp on willet 6y rye rare release? -
Nowhere near the 4 roses haul above, but grabbed a couple bottles at the distillery today with some stops along the way for a few store picks. 4 roses was nice enough to throw the glass and bourbon balls in for free.
