Preparing to evaluate

Please report back.

I have a bottle of that Old Scout and really enjoy it. One I have to watch myself to not kill too much at one time since not easy to get another.

A buddy gave me this for Christmas. It’s good, but not nearly as mind blowing as I expected

Picked up a bottle of Maker's RC6 (2019 Limited Release) just a bit ago.

Will report back, but the reviews are pretty great for this one. Breaking Bourbon called it the best thing Maker's has released since their original Cask Strength...was surprised to see a bottle on the shelf in Gomer's Westport...excited to try it when I get home.

Yes it ok but I think you pay for the racehorse topper on the bottle. It's honestly should be a 30 buck bottle not 50 to 60. Get a bottle of Bakers and experience what a 60 dollar bottle should be.

The old scout is good, but overpriced. Before it was named whisky of the year by whisky advocate, the dickel 13 year bottled in bond for $35 was just as good if not better than the old scout (makes sense since the old scout is dickel juice as well). After winning best of the year, it might be hard to find the dickel 13 year BiB now. Luckily, I bought 3 bottles before the win.

Add a bottle of Oban 16 to your scotch stock.

Nice collection of bottles.

Do you mean Oban 14 or Oban 18?

There has only been one Oban 16 bottling that I know of that was finished in sherry casks and runs around 2k.

Old Scouts reasonably priced here bout 30 bucks a bottle and have found it sale priced at Harrys for 25.00.

We might not be talking about the same Old Scout. I thought we talking about the Old Scout 13 year old mentioned in Shitgoose's post 1827. Around my way, that's at least $65.
