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.
No problem I have a bad habit of not proof reading my posts. When I go back and read them I cant make since of them either. Getting old kinda sucks. [Reply]

I didn't taste any cinnamon, licorice, or the diesel fuel that the guy who gave it to me tasted. All I could taste was the sweet, cathartic burn. [Reply]
Ahhh had quite a bit of that Trace last night and got lost in Making A Murder II. I look at the clock it was 2 am needless to say I'm paying for it today. [Reply]
EH Taylor Single Barrel usually runs around $65 maybe? Since bourbon flipper's went apeshit crazy and started runs on everything by Sazerac, the Taylor bourbons and ryes have been increasingly hard to find. Just last year, I could grab cases of EH Taylor Single Barrel, seriously. There was always at least a full row at my local HyVee. Now, if you're lucky, you will maybe find the Straight Rye at about $75 and the Small Batch for around $45. Good luck with any of the more limited releases, they pretty much vanish instantly. [Reply]
Bought a bottle of Old Grandad 114 on a whim a while back. It drinks very very smoothly for its abv and has some real rye to it if that's your thing. I like it a whole lot and it was only 28 bucks. It does have a nice taste but will fuck you up if you aren't careful. [Reply]

At least you aren't drinking shitty Jack Daniels anymore Billay. Thank you and God bless.
I've bought that RR on your recommendation and very much enjoyed it. [Reply]

Great choice. It’s got a great rye finish (heat).
Glad you enjoyed the Russell’s Reserve man! The Best $30 bourbon you can easily find. [Reply]
Had some blantons tonight at Gibson’s restaurant in Chicago. Apparently they have a private blantons stock or something? It was 14 bucks for a glass but it was good
Thank god for continuing education tax deductions [Reply]

They probably purchased their own single barrel. In the past year or so, Blanton's has started doing this more. It's awesome and the single barrels are typically REALLY good. [Reply]

Oh it was predictably awesome but for 14 bucks? Fuck.
