its bourbon season!! Fall is when all the rare bottles get released. Happy hunting. Landed a 4 Roses Small Batch Limited Edition. Waiting on the 2015 Old Forester Birthday Bourbon and the BTAC bottles. George T Stagg is gonna be hard to find this year. They had an 85% evaporation tally on their Stagg barrels so all the barrels only had a gallon or two of whiskey when they opened them up.

Yes, BTAC will be upon us soon. Gotta get that WLW and 18 year Saz fix! Got Handy Rye and George T. Stagg last year and I still have almost all the Stagg left. That stuff is like rocket fuel!

thanks,

I find the older I get, the fewer cubes I use. Maybe my taste buds are diminishing, maybe I'm acquiring more of a taste for the finer things or maybe, both.
Now and again I'll use http://getamazeballs.com. Keeps your drink nice and cold without diluting with water.

I like it on the rocks mostly. It's just how I've always drank it. The higher quality though, the better, because the ice melting helps to mellow the whiskey a little.

My mom used to drink it with water, but I've never tried that. I also like it cold. I think I should look into those maze balls...

Room temp and neat. The way it is meant to be consumed. Get some NEAT glasses.

That's a pretty tasty bottle right there. I've had it once and it was a heater. It was towards the end of the night and let's just say that it ended the night.

Not a bourbon, but he did bring me a boubon from Triple 8 which I'm currently drinking.

Buddy who works for the distillery brought this over last night. Sadly, I was half lit when we sampled it, so I don't have much to report on it.

Notch Whisky, the barrel-aged, single-malt of Triple Eight Distillery, hit gold last week in the International Spirits Challenge in London, which judged the 12-year batch released earlier this year to be the best single-malt whiskey in the world, outside of Scotland.
Supposedly thhe 8 year was going for $888 a bottle (kind of a joke, since it's triple eight distillery). My buddy said this goes for about $350 on the market, if you can get it.

Nice. Though I'd expect a reach-around at that rate...

Yeah. He made me blow him after I finished my drink.

Heh. Guess we all have those things we're just never going to live down.Don't get the surprise at that term however...

Does anyone have any insight on why it's become so hard to find a bottle of Blanton's lately?

Found three bottles today and grabbed them as if they were the last three I'd ever see. Guessing it's a distillery issue - haven't seen as much EH Taylor as I'm used to seeing on shelves either.
