Any Bourbon drinkers out there?

[The Poz]

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

I knew booker, and he could distill barrel proof in the 130's but could,t sell over 129.

I met him on a Kentucky scenic train, after sitting in his car during an interview he paid for my hotel cause i had to be helped into and out of a cab.I am not a wimp, he fed me a lot of booze. Next morning he bought brunch at his hotel, I had NO hangover. One of the most straightforward men I have ever met.

I get a care package from Beam Suntory marketing but the Japanese who own them now are not very nice... compared to Booker.


of all their brands, I'm an Effen vodka fan after Bookers.

Buffalo Trace is very over-rated.

It's loved by Taters though.

I'm not sure how a bourbon at that price point can be "very" overrated

Buffalo Trace is hard to find? Good lord. It's about as silly as shops or secondary market sellers price gouging on Weller Special Reserve. That stuff is awful and people are buying it all up just because it says Weller on the bottle.
