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.

I've almost pulled the trigger at Liquor Express in Tempe, but haven't yet.
I’ve had the total wine barrel selects of their cask strength bourbon and rye and was rather impressed for the price. Both 120 proof but think I preferred to bourbon. [Reply]
McKenna 10 goes for $75+ on the secondary market. I have a place I can get it regularly for $40.
Typically buy a half case at a time.
McKenna 10 has been hard to find here since it made news with awards a while back. I have a sealed bottle but had a few before. While very good for the retail price point it was disappointing after the hype. I think eagle rare was similar in this is really great for the price until it blew up. [Reply]

McKenna has been very hit or miss depending on the barrel. I've been pretty lucky with mine, but I've had a bottle or two that really underwhelmed.
When it's good, it's as good as it gets at the $35-40 price point and 100 proof. [Reply]
I have never had the Elmer T Lee I have looked for it in sample sizes before I drop that coin.
Have you tried Noah's Mill its a little higher price point than Rowans but it's pretty good. I get it when I cant find Rowans which I prefer.
No, I haven’t. I usually buy what I like and stick with that. And I like scotch too. My experiments usually come over my friends places. That’s where I had rowans the first time. With a cigar by the pool [Reply]
