Shelved this evening at my neighborhood liquor store. They had a few more but I figured I should give some other folks a chance since it's been out of stock recently.  If they're still on the shelf next time I'm there I might change my mind

[Stogiepuffer]

Love me some Peat.

I've not tried either. The Balcones was a gift from a friend.

Yes, I've got one bottle of the regular ETL, but haven't found it since, so I consider myself lucky I got the 100 Year Tribute ETL.

Finally giving this a try. I’ve heard this has been a great value bourbon in past years, but haven’t heard much about the 2012

[irratebass]

Local store had a LeapDay Allocation event, 1st time I've been to one of their events, usually I'm working and miss them.

Here's what I picked up

OF 1910
BT Barrel Pick (said they went through 22 cases, and there was a sign said limit one per person, there was only four left, impulse buy but oh well)

Very popular brand in my locale and is generally a heck of a value.

1792 bottled in bond

Overpaid a little, but not too bad. It was the last one on the shelf, so worth the chance to try something new

Friday was my last day at my job, and my co-workers sent me off with some tasty spirits.

Then today (Saturday) this arrives from my homeboys. Early birthday gifts.

Been super interested to try this.  (As a Tennessean) I came up on $9 bottles of Dickel black label, an unpretentious (if somewhat unrefined) offering that always trumped Jack Daniels ten fold IMHO.  I've recently found their higher-end bottles (barrel select) to be incredibly complex and delicious.  I've heard this is a step up (even though it carries a slightly smaller price tag).

My dad snagged me a bottle and I'll have it in a couple weeks. Its won a few awards already, so it will probably be like McKenna 10 year now, impossible to get. Some people say it, and all dickel for that matter, tastes like flintstones multivitamins lol. I've not tried any dickel before, but I hope it doesn't taste like that!

The red, black, and white label dickel is all a bit overly sweet.  The barrel select, on the other hand, is a lot dryer and spicier (I tasted a lot of baking spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc.)... a completely different creature in my mind.  I'd hope the 'bottled in bond' is more along the lines of the barrel select series, but who knows

Mailman came today!

Some whites to try and also my favourite regular Scotch - Kilkerran 12 year old. Great value for money Scotch 

[FatherOfPugs]

fuzz, is isolation making you grumpy and curmudgeonly?

tappa pass and of course, hill of grace are also pretty special. the only problem with doing this is that i can't stretch it over 10 days a. love to be doing one a day, and then have the rest of the bottle, post work, for the evening, instead of having to do it over two days.  but my lord, they are looking good!!

Grumpy and highly jealous!

Henschke wines are definitely cellar favourites that I always keep on hand. Might crack open a bottle tonight. Need to relax after spending 6hrs cleaning up the back patio. Might have a cider or two beforehand.
