8000 people entered. they probably have 20 bottles of the various pappys, but 150-200 bottles total with all the bourbon.

I love whiskey, but I wish I liked bourbon more. I still just don't really like it or understand it. For instance, people tell me that they love bourbon because it is so sweet. I have never tasted a bourbon that I have considered sweet - it just tastes like straight wood to me. I find regular single malt American whiskeys (Stranahans, Barrell, etc.), Japanese whiskeys, Speysides, and Highlands all significantly sweeter.

They're randomizing the 50 people they notified today and will distribute those people's preferences based on the randomized order. I have ETL 100 as my top preference.

Woodford Reserve is great if you have a yellow jackets nest you want to pour it on and light on fire. Not a fan.

I got this Jefferson Aged at Sea bourbon: https://www.totalwine.com/spirits/bourbon/small-batch-bourbon/jeffersons-ocean-aged-at-sea-bourbon/p/138855750 Does not in fact taste like bourbon, but is pretty good with a dash of bittters. Noah's Mill was pretty good. Think I get a different bottle every time I go to the store.

I am really shocked how much I like Maker's Mark. Somehow that has escaped me in my 15 years of drinking.

It's not some big name but I wanted to find a good Pecan Whiskey if you're ever looking one for any recipes or just for kicks,

William Wolf Pecan is the way to go...hard to find in NC.

got some a bottle of Old Forester Hoppy Select Single Barrel Barrel Proof. it ~130 proof, but def taste smother than that. super tasty.

Also amazed at their section, it;d take me forever to decide.

if you see Quality House (by Heaven Hill) by it. 8 bucks and taste great. Heaven Hill make damn good bourbon.

Been buying that as my cheap whiskey^

It's good stuff, no Buffalo trace but good.


Turns out the ABC store near me has been keeping most of the better stuff off the shelves and you gotta ask for it.

I've been cheaping out and buying Evan Williams lately since Costco has been grossing me out and it's always on sale at the grocery store. Might be time to take a break

Evan BIB and 1783 are two of my go-to's, especially as I'm a cheap bastard most of the time.

same. EW BiB is my cheap daily. stocked up on McK10 so that's my other daily, but it's a bit more pricey. I have an NBC barrel pick with Bull City Bourbon Club I'll be picking up in the next day or so, so that's some good news.

Just got back from spending nearly a week in the Lexington area. Made multiple trips to Buffalo Trace to grab some bottles of wishlist bourbons.

Fun trip.

Toured Buffalo Trace, Willett, and Did the You Do Bourbon Experience at Heaven Hill

FYI, Evan Williams Single Barrel is now a "Kentucky Only" release. This is a very good and very budget friendly SiB offering. I picked up a couple dusty bottles at one of my rural stops this weekend just to have on hand. Most places are already out of stock.

I was up in Louisville last week for work and did the Evan Williams tour.
I picked up a couple of their "only available after this tour and in our store" 12yo bottles.
