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.

Not me. Only thing I’ve commented on is their yellow label is very good in cocktails but isn’t really a neat drinker. I’m a big 4 roses fan. Their barrel proof stuff is always great too. [Reply]

I’m not a huge small batch fan of theirs though. For cocktails yes but not neat.
Ok, I was wrong about you shitting all over it, that was Billay. I did remember the mixer/neat comment though and must’ve combined it all into one. Guess I’m getting old! [Reply]

Some of the more expensive ones I've tried and like were: Blantons and Bookers.
I usually spend anywhere from $20-40 dollar range.
I like Trace, Makers, Makers 46, Old Grand dad, Evan William's single barrel, bulleit bourbon, Woodford Reserve.
PM me your name and address. I have four sample vials to send to you.
Also let me know if you want me to tell you what's coming, or if you wanna be surprised. All are sub-$60 bottles, some maybe easier to find than others.
Some of the vials are fuller than others due to supply issues LOL. All have between 2-4 ounces. All I ask in return is that you review them each in this thread. [Reply]

Id recommend going through the nips selection in most liquor stores you will find Larceny and many others for a trial.
That was my value bourbon of choice 5-6 years ago. Could find it at Walmart/Price Chopper for $18-19. [Reply]
Alright, postage has been printed so assuming I can get to the Post Office tomorrow Billay will get his tasty treats on Thursday. He decided to be surprised. [Reply]
