What’s the consensus with regards to the KC distilled Union Horse Reserve?

Just last year, I could grab cases of EH Taylor Single Barrel, seriously. There was always at least a full row at my local HyVee. Now, if you're lucky, you will maybe find the Straight Rye at about $75 and the Small Batch for around $45. Good luck with any of the more limited releases, they pretty much vanish instantly.

I spotted a row of EH Taylor Single Barrel at $90ea yesterday. This place is known for their markups though.

I inquired about getting a bottle of High West A Midwinter's Night Dram last year at my local store. They didn't get any bottles but kept my name on their list for allocated bottles for this year. To my surprise they called yesterday and had a bottle waiting for me.

It wasn't cheap but it is by far the best Rye I have ever tasted.


Can't recommend High West enough

Ok guys I need some advice, need to get some bourbon for my dad as a Christmas present.

He is normally a big Jack Daniel fan, single barrel and Gentlemen, but he started saying something about wanting a nice bourbon the other day.

So what would you guys buy for him, I was thinking Buffalo Trace from the reviews but really not sure

If he wants a nice bourbon go with Angels Envy. It's one of my favorites and just easy to drink. Also decently priced.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bd2405fb51.jpg

Also a really nice bourbon at about the same price point is Russel's Reserve 10 yo. Also check out the holiday box sets. For the normal price of the bourbon you get a couple nice whiskey glasses. Knob creek always has a nice set and its good bourbon. I was in Sam's club and Four Roses had a really nice box set. Im not really much for Four Roses but many here are.

Hadn’t heard of Angels Envy or Russel’s Reserve before I will look into those. Have had Knob Creek before thought about getting him that. I heard of Four Roses and have thought he might like it.

I’m looking for something that’s easy to sip, if that makes any difference in options. It might also be something he mixes every now and then

Just cracked open a bottle of Act 6 Scene 3 this weekend. It is very nice this year. Great spice and depth of flavor.
