New addition at #5, Evan Williams White Label (50% ABV). Amazingly rich and complex for the price (36 Canadian dollorz). I rarely sip neat bourbon these days but this thing is just calling for it. No need to tame the high ABV with water, it's perfect as is. Very impressive.

I ought to do some rearranging at the top of the list. Both Maker's Marks are due to drop a little just based on their climbing prices.

This is a value-biased list.

I drank a half a bottle of Four Roses Small Batch on Saturday night. Didn't feel so well today.




You have FR Small Batch too far down the list, btw. Time for a re-tasting, MattyBallz.

 

[Matty]

Possibly. Have you had FR Single Barrel? It *kills* both the regular and small batch.

 

[Tron]

I've had it. I actually like them in this order:

Small Batch
Single Barrel
Standard

 

[Matty]

Inneresting. Maybe I just got lucky with my bottle.

I've been meaning to get another Elijah Craig bottle.

Also the tastiest stuff I've had is this:

very nice for the price ~$25
don't confuse with forty creek, that shit is awful

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Received a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 12 year yesterday. Going to drink some right before the Derby.

Had a little last night. Major notes of vanilla with a strong finish. I can see why this bourbon is a must own.

 

[Matty]

Fuck you Caspy! Unobtainium in Canada.

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Fuck you Caspy! Unobtainium in Canada.

Why unavailable in Canada?

Come to NY and have a drink.

I have 3 people that are going to have a snort of it w me today.

 

[reno cool]

that shit supposedly goes for 3k a bottle Casper.

I found Fighting Cock in a store for the 1st time. Very nice seems like a steal for $18.

Looking for a bottle of Elmer T

 

[reno cool]

this is my favorite right now. Found a place that sells them for $29. They have it on the top unreachable shelf where everything else is $100+. sneaky bastages

Nice drank, reno.

Haven't drank since JAIL.

 

[Matty]

I dunno whether to or to :.

 

[eggs]

Lol I'm fine with still drinking man, I just have to walk everywhere and save my pennies for legal shizznit.

 

[Matty]

Yes, you're visibly fine.
