I wasn't a fan of the 10 year and gave it to my coworker who loves it. I might give it another try as some have posted here that the flavor sometimes opens up as you get further down the bottle. I had the same experience with KC9, but stuck with it and really enjoy it now.

I don't, it's just laughably dumb over and over

I picked up a couple bottles on my home from work today.
A Bulleit 10 year (my wife won't drink anything else than Bulleit so I figured I'd get this as a little something special) and for myself a bottle of Bulleit Barrel Strength.
Has anyone tried this juice? Batch #6
Let us know how the 10 year is, I've been eyeing that one as it's pretty easily available and not too pricey.
I've seen that BP sitting on the shelf here in Austin Area quite a bit. Keep telling myself that I'm going to purchase it, but never seem to get around to doing it. Let me know how that one tastes as well.
I did purchase the Blenders Select Batch #001, haven't opened it yet. Will give a review as soon as I do open it.
Will do. I know you enjoy barrel proof, so hopefully I can recommend this pick up pending a tasty pour.
I've never cared much for Bulleit bourbon - but their Rye is fine - so have always passed on the BP. Would be interested in a review as well, if you can compare it to something else.

Because that dude is annoying AF. He got kicked out of the DFW group (which is also pretty annoying itself) and started doing this in a Houston group.
Yes, i know i don't have to look at the pages but every once in a while i do.
I would love to know his actual experience with using weapons.

I really liked that one.
I've got about 10 bottles open right now that I promised myself to finish before I open another bottle. Giving my spending spree lately, I've got about another half dozen bottles that are "waiting" for me to open them. Might be a rough weekend with a bit of a hang over if I'm not careful.
Man, I'm usually hurtin the day after if i get drunk on bourbon.
I have to stick to gin and tequila if i dont want to feel like ass my dude

If I can't find blantons, I can now find a store pick reposado tequila aged in blanton barrels!
Looks like they do a few others as well.
Picked this up today. Curious to try it.

Did a blind whiskey sour tasting with the wifey.
She preferred the Buffalo Trace over Weller.
She is learning! She enjoyed the Weller neat!

Did you find this at a major liquor store?

I bought the THH one at Specs a few years back, it's good but there's better tequila for the cash

I know you all said to be careful with the total wine recommendations, so yesterday the bourbon guy recommended these bottles that I really didn't know much about (I didn't buy them), do you all have any experience with these?
Bib and Tucker

Just Never buy anything they recommend
I would assume if they are recommending it is because they need to get it off their shelf?
Incentives from distributors...
Their recommendations have nothing to do with quality and I cringe when I hear them convincing somebody to buy garbage bourbon.

Thanks! That's exactly what I thought. I figured he was full of it when he started talking down knob creek, Henry McKenna BiB and 4 Roses.

Buddy just got a sazerac 18 thru TW raffle.
Yeah I got duped once. Now I'm not a big fan of them. Except if I can get GR status and get a cool bottle next year lol

I'm still trying to kill this bottle of chestnut hill farms BIB they said was super good and pretty much an allocated bottle that they will still put on shelves only to find out the next time I went there were three bottles sitting out. I'm running out of sprite.
Great bottle. Lower proof version of THH

Go to cold weather pour
Nice haul today. Made sure all the firearms were put away.
Called it quits on dry February today. Went out to our favorite Mexican restaurant and they had Weller 12 and Blanton's at the bar.
Had any self a nice pour of Weller12. Very powerful and heated taste but a buttery finish. Glad I finally got to try it out.
Then I crushed my margarita.

Smoke Wagon side by side by side review. Three tasters/taters.
Straight bourbon, 92.5 proof, smooth, hints of rye, about what a good entry level bourbon should be.
Small Batch, 100 proof. More bite, a really interesting scent, like a good alcohol smell rather than a stinging ethanol smell. Vanilla.
Alll three agree this tastes better than the Straight.
Uncut unfiltered. 114.9 proof, caramel, the right kind of smooth that comes with a high proof. Really worth buying.

I am really enjoying the SW small batch.
Agree with your assessment. SW U/U might be the best value, or even option, out there is you like the full flavor, spice, caramel flavor profile.
That JJB is a great semi readily availble daily drinker.
Thanks for this review.
I just bought 2 bottles of the uncut, hoping it was worth the price bump over the others.
Feeling good about the purchase. Thanks!
