I don't think it would be hard to find 30-50 people on here to make the cost reasonable. I know I'd be in for a ton of different barrels.

Awesome feedback on cocktails and different ways to enjoy, thanks yall!

Edit to add, I would happily buy 2 bottles in a TexAgs barrel pick.

I think the Full Proof was ~$50/bottle and an Eagle Rare we're just about to get is costing $30 for a .750

In for 4 minimum if we want to do it.

It's going to be almost impossible to do it by each person picking a number of bottles. You need to have the total all-in cost with everyone committing to a fixed dollar amount up front and allocating however many bottles you get pro-rata based on that with minor true ups at the end.

God bless anyone who wants to spearhead logistics on this but I'd be in for a meaningful share of something good.

I'm in. Let's do something that's hard as hell to find so that we can:

1. Looks like badasses when we take crotch shots with it to post on secondary.
2. Have trade material for really good *****

I'm in for a share. Whatever that equates to. Prefer something higher proof but in for anything.

Here's a short list of companies who I know of that do a barrel pick

Angel's Envy, Four Roses (5 recipes), Heaven Hill (Elijah Craig), Garrison Bros, High West, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam (Knob Creek), Maker's Mark, Old Forester, Sazerac (Buffalo Trace, 1792, Eagle Rare), Whistlepig, Wild Turkey (Russell's Reserve), Woodford Reserve.

I know there's more but this was a quick list to help

I kind of want to suggest Garrison Brothers, just to see how fast everyone retracts their commitment.
Bunk Moreland
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Out of the list above I'd be in for any of the following:

Four Roses
Heaven Hill (Elijah Craig)
Jim Beam (Knob Creek)
Old Forester
Sazerac (Buffalo Trace, 1792)
Wild Turkey (Russell's Reserve)
Woodford Reserve.

I'd also consider plenty of others.

Instead of by bottle, put me down at $500 (minimum because I can find more who would be interested if needed) assuming a price point of $100/bottle or less.

I'm in for 4 cases. I don't think we could get the price as low as stated though. I am still in if 100 a bottle. Like I said. I paid 325 for a bottle.

Ducks posted his experience on this thread, and it was $50.

If we could do a barrel pick of W107, WFP, EHT, ER or ECBP, I am definitely in and for at least a case!!!

In my mind it it very important to pick a barrel proof offering when doing a barrel selection. That way it tastes the same bottled as when you chose it. You never know what you're going to get once they start adding water to it.
CactusThomas

Turkey
Rose's
Beam

Would be my preference. RR single barrel is close enough to barrel proof

My wife's coworker is best friends with one of the Sazerac owners. Going to see if he has any recommendations / tips to pull this together.

It sounds like there is enough legitimate interest for us to make this happen and everyone make it out with a few bottles. The question is who has the knowledge/connections to spearhead this thing.

My vote would be for us to select a barrel of something that is pretty difficult to find, like WFP. I also love four roses picks tho. I would prefer to not pick something that we have a legitimate shot at finding anytime such as knob creek or RR. Even though these are good, any one of us could find those with a little effort. Just my two cents...

Long time lurker and follower. I would be interested as well.
