Knob is harsh until its 12 woodford or four roses is acceptable EC is the way to go for rye my reg bottle is buffalo trace. Holds up neat or manhattan or old fashioned

Holds up neat or manhattan or old fashioned four roses is probably my favorite of the bunch. i love knob creek though. i think its got a ton of big flavors when you get into it. its really between those 2 i think. buffalo trace is hard to get around here, and i just dont think it holds up to those 2

How about Evan Williams Single Barrel. Usually around an 8 year age statement. I get it for 27 or so typically.

December 15, 20213 yr Places out here had some crazy pop up sales today mwnd 9-4 i missed out on dammit
December 16, 20213 yr Author Turns out we got two 6pk cases of Stagg JR on Monday when I was off and I didn't find out until today because we got a dozen calls from people asking if we had it. Someone who was on our Blanton's list and picked up their bottle also bought one of the Stagg and posted it on FB, which my owners don't like when customers do that. Brings out all the cherry pickers.
December 18, 20213 yr Scored a Remus Repeal Reserve V on the way home. Had to do a double take, was just sitting on the shelf. Most expensive bottle I’ve purchased this year, will probably be my New Years/Anniversary pour since both are coming up.
December 19, 20213 yr Randomly picked up a bottle of Blantons that got set on a display barrel while I happened to be standing right next to it. Was the only one they put out today and there were like 4 dudes who saw it get set down and were closing in. Paid regular price ($59), last one I saw in the wild was 129, I hope that bottle gets accidentally dropped.

We get a 6pk case delivered every month around the middle of each month, along with a 6pk of Eagle Rare. We have a wait list for Blanton's that I think goes into at least April and just work off the list so the next 6 customers who requested a bottle are on the clock. I think we're now at $69/bottle. Other stores near us will put a bottle or two out on the shelf at a time, but charge more for it.
December 23, 20213 yr Into some extended time off and opening a few bottles I’ve picked up lately. Sipping some FAE-02, mouthfeel on this is really creamy, and the first pour on this is way smoother than what I usually get from a Makers store pick or 46 Cask Strength.
