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.

Oh yeah, it’s only for bottles you like after you try it. If you try and don’t like, don’t add to infinity bottle! [Reply]
I was able to pick up a bottle of McKenna 10 and Stagg Jr. recently at pretty solid prices, compared to what I've seen in the past in the midwest. [Reply]
Do I build myself a nice shelf to put all my bourbon and glasses on, or do I build myself a cart?
Would like a cart but I have a 18 month old running around, she is a fucking tornado. So that makes me lean shelf, but don’t really have a good place to put it.
Also kids can find a way to get too exposed shelving. My son has a large display of legos star wars figures he put together as kid. I hung shelving on his bedroom walls. Well my daughter saw where I put a yardstick in a closet and knocked everyone down and was playing with them when me and my son were outside. Wife had fallen asleep and thats how fast it can happen.
We have a dining room armoire and I keep my bourbon in the cabinet below the the glass display above. The nice thing is its lockable and it keeps it out of direct sunlight. I dont know if its really true that bourbon needs to be kept out of sunlight like wine or beer I just read it somewhere. [Reply]

I don't worry about UV light with bourbon like I do with beer. Bourbon's enemy in the long term is oxygen exposure.
Now that doesn't mean to leave your bourbon collection on the dashboard of your car over the summer but I wouldn't worry about leaving bottles out on some shelves where there is light. [Reply]

I totally would have bought you a bottle of that Full Proof pick! I didn't even think about having a bourbon guy from CP in town. I know you're on the opposite side of town but I'd be willing to meet somewhere. I'll hit you up next time and see if you need anything. [Reply]
