This sounds awesome. I'm in for 2 at least.

On the list already but didn't give a number. In for at least 2, and a max of 4.

I'm in for 4!

In for 6

I'm in for 2.

We might need to cap this thing off at some point.

Also, I like the idea of a Whitmeyer's barrel that was suggested.

They hooked up the factory I manage with a couple hundred pounds of hand sanitizers, when the pickings were very slim, & we almost ran out. Good folks there.

Can we call it "Hell's coming with me" bourbon?

You know we could also try and pick a whitmeyers barrel and I'm pretty sure he would let us have a bottle share at the distillery and pick the barrel one night, especially if we did a charity thing for the veterans program he is involved in.

---

He would 100% and starting with a local distillery like that is probably the right approach.

In for 4 bottles

The idea of a Wellerz pick brought the TexAgs taters out in force.

Yea it'd be nice to aggregate the number of posts on this thread to set "bottle rights"

I'm also hoping that we remember the Aggie Network is broader than the state of Texas (as great as it is) and someone will do this long time poster a solid // humbly requested

Yep as a regular contributor, you would definitely get some.

This is going to be a much larger undertaking than imagined...I'm still reaching out to my contact.

Can't believe I haven't weighed in on this already. Weller Full Proof, please. In for whatever though - 4 to 6 bottles.

In in in. 2-6 bottles I don't care.

I wonder how many caught Ducks post a day or so ago saying the turnaround time for a Weller Full Proof barrel is over a year from the time you order it.

How many will stick around when we end up with a barrel of something else?

---

I think that was just the turnaround time to go pick it. Then you routinely wait 6 months to a year for it to be bottled and distributed to your liquor store..

All I care about is if Tx4guns is on the selection committee!

Here is the link for the single barrel select program. All the bourbons (1792s, Wellers, BT, EHT) are sold out for 2020. I've heard that the popular barrels sell out in minutes when they open the year up.

If been trying to get a barrel for several years.

Yes, minutes

Man that looks outstanding. I would love to do a KC rye pick at some point.

How many barrels did y'all pick and how many distilleries?

That trip was just a knob creek bourbon and a rye barrel. Between the two groups I'm in we're good for 4-6 barrels a year from all over.

I still think Woodford or Four Roses would be great options. Something you can normally find on the shelf, so you don't have to fight the crazed mobs, but would still be damned good to get in a single barrel form.

Hey guys I have been busy today and am continuing to update the spreadsheet. Everyone will be added with their requested amounts. Once I have a total list I will sort the requests by max and min totals. As some of you have alluded to this is going to be a long long process from start to finish. This isn't a order a barrel tomorrow and have bottles delivered. Once I have a total amount we can figure out if we need to do a second barrel pick. Glad to see so many of you are excited about bourbon and hope something cool can come to fruition.

Long time lurker who would be in for 4-6.

Was at Spec's today and they wanted $20 more for Woodford Double Oaked. Trying to figure out if it is worth it or not.

Ok thanks for the input. I enjoy the regular. Just trying to figure out if the store pick was worth it.

I haven't tried it. But I do own a store pick bottle. I've heard some reviews that love it and some that hate it. The standard double oaked has an almost "dessert" whiskey flavor and palette feel. The ones that hated the store pick some not like that it's much more of a standard flavor profile. Leads me to thinking that a lot of the standard DO flavor comes from proofing it down, but could be mistaken there.

I am certainly in for 2-4 bottles.

Please put me down for 4. Thanks.

I realize we are in the middle of the great "Texags Barrel Pick" discussion but have been meaning to ask this group if there are some DFW aggies (primarily North burbs, Plano, Allen, McKinney, Frisco, Lucas) that want to get together on maybe a monthly or quarterly time frame for some bourbon tasting? Everybody brings a bottle and we blind taste or something. Chance to get together with other bourbon loving ags for good bourbon tasting and discussion?
