Any Bourbon drinkers out there?
I've heard some good things about Buffalo Trace Bourbon.
http://www.buffalotrace.com/ Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order. Thanks |

Treated myself to a WhistlePig 12 that was then aged in an empty Revolution Brewing Deth's Tar barrel (stout aged 12 months in bourbon barrels).

Wow, that’s very generous considering those two bottles are pretty hard to come by. Would be interested in your thoughts about the Weller single barrel. It’s the only one I’ve never tried

Can anyone suggest a good liquor store that hasn't completely lost their minds in regards to prices? And that actually has a good bourbon selection?
Tried a couple of places up north on my way in yesterday, only found one place with Buffalo Trace and he was asking SIXTY ****ING DOLLARS. Gonna try Plaza today, but anywhere else I should try? |

There's also Bubbles in the Northland, I believe they had a decent selection... and Red X in Riverside (haven't been there in years though).

I've never been but there's a Mike's Wine and Spirits on Westport Rd that seems fairly busy and is in a good spot. Anybody know if that place carries a decent selection and/or prices? |

I’ve been to Lukas, Bubbles, Plaza, Gomers and Brookside Wine and Spirits.
Nada. Looking like a New Riff Plaza Store pick for tomorrow, Gents. Last edited by OnTheWarpath15; 01-15-2022 at 01:47 PM.. |

Damn... besides that Dix Liquors place in Roeland Park, there's also Village West way out by the Speedway, but of course would be better to call first.... I've never looked at their bourbon selection, only go there for craft beer.

My sister does a LOT of her bourbon shopping at Costco. She picked up some Toki there over the holidays. I don't remember who her regular liquor store is.

The Price chopper and Hyvee liquor stores can surprise you with good selections up in the Northland. I can usually find something interesting at PC at Vivion and N Oak.
As mentioned Red X liquors are pretty well stocked. If Buff Trace is what you're after Sams Club usually has it also god forbid Wally World. Last I checked before Xmas Sams had it up to 35 bucks from 29. Good Luck!

Did a bourbon thing the other day, it was fun.
I've had all 4 separately and knew Basil Hayden Toasted didn't really belong. The scores are more comparatively speaking. The interesting thing is I did a blind tasting between 1910 and EJ Toasted Barrel a while back and slightly preferred 1910, and those two were really the last two standing in terms of guessing which was which. And I'm a sucker for EC Toasted Barrel and big barrel.

To celebrate my son's successful surgery today, we decided (since we were at the store anyway) to get these two gems.
