Yeah...I would not recommend that with a cigar. Someone recommended it to me years ago and I got a bottle. After it was finished I wished I would have just bought 3 bottles of Buffalo Trace.

I cannot get BT around here anymore, it sells too quick. Forget trying to find a bottle of Pappy...sigh

I live in Atlanta, we've got bourbon coming out of our ears. It's funny to read on here about difficulty buying Makers or BT, I can literally go buy a pallet off the stuff at any liquor store in town. I'd be willing to say I can buy this 100% of the time at any store that sells liquor here.

Now Pappy is impossible to find, but otherwise bourbon is easy.

This, 100%.

I don't see how it is possible that you can't find regular Buffalo Trace and lots of it. We are swimming in it here in KC.

Got the Evan Williams black label 12 bucks for a 750 it's not bad at all. After what happened last night in Westport I'll be drinking at home from now on.

Get your ass kicked last night?

Nope 6 people got shot

Bourbon must be aged in brand new barrels which are made of white oak and have been charred on the inside. Brands determine the varying levels of char for their barrels from 1 to 4.

Nothing can be added at bottling except water. Nothing is added that might enhance flavor, add sweetness or alter color.

They had another 30% off sale at Fry's grocery.

Got the Bulleit rye for $17.50, Bulleit 10 year for $25.09, small batch Knob Creek for $24.49 and Russell Reserve for $24.49.

Another WINNING day.

That's a sweet haul brother, and at $25 that Bulleit 10 is a no brainer. (Incidentally, it is usually $40+ around here while the regular Bulleit is $23ish.) And while I do love the 10, I don't find it to be so radically different from the standard Bulleit bourbon to make me spend the extra $15-20. Probably because the regular stuff is already 7-8 years old.

If someone has already posted this one, my apologies.

This $16 dollar bottle is probably the best $16 you can spend. Period.

Ever.

This bourbon is so delicious, I have no idea how it's even legal. If it's available where you live, please give Old Bardstown a shot. You will not be disappointed.

If you're in the KC area, it's only available in Missouri. I drive 35 minutes each way to Lucas Liquor in Martin City to stock up when they have it. Well worth it.

I'll check it out thanks.

Do you guys have Fry's grocery in the Midwest?

They run this sale multiple times per year so I usually wait to get a ton of bottles then. I haven't tried the Bulleit Rye whiskey or the 10, so it will be interesting to see the difference. And I agree, the regular Bulleit bourbon is top notch for it's price point and if the 10 hadn't been on sale, I'd have gotten it instead.

If I ever get a reason to get to ATL, I'll be sure to make a stop. Here in Virginia, we cannot get Buffalo Trace...Pappy is literally like it never existed. I remember getting some Pappy back a few years ago before Buffalo Trace's distillery went off the chain.

Be thankful, fellow bourbon drinkers, if you can get Buffalo Trace freely...we have a broke dick system of state controlled liquor here in Virginia and if a local ABC store gets a case, typically, the lucky finder buys every bottle they have. ****ers...

IDGAF...you can argue with the distillers of Angels Envy as to whether or not it's 'bourbon'...they call it bourbon, so I call it bourbon.

So weird. Buffalo Trace is literally in every grocery store here, any time you want it.
