I have a sample for you if you want it. Patrick just left with one.
Best GB in my opinion but not worth the price tag.

Elijah Craig 18 year, what are your personal thoughts on the taste?
I realize that the price might affect some folks on what they think of the flavor. So if possible, Try to be objective and keep the price tag out of your mind, I'm really interested in what the actual taste is like.
Also, if possible, let me know if there is a comparable bourbon on the market that is close in flavor profile. Doesn't have to be exact, just close to the EC18.

I think the bourbon market has finally worn me down. And after only a year of searching, finding, drinking, collecting, trading, etc. The results no longer warrant the chase. There is a lot of good stuff on the shelf that I'm happy to buy, saving special stuff for when I'm out and about and see it on a bar shelf.
Here's to one less guy looking for the more gooder stuff.

I like the stuff on the shelves too much to get worked up over the allocated bottles for the most part.
You are probably right, but I'm hoping that for a GB head, it might be something they are interested in.Ducks4brkfast said:
I don't think there is any value above whatever retail was for those. And even at whatever retail was at the time, I think you might struggle to even get that.
Yeah, people are hoarding every day bottles.TikkaShooter said:
I think thats the problem. Its getting to the point that the everyday stuff that I like is starting to be allocated.
Example - one of my local stores always has Knob 9 on the shelf. Sometimes Knob 12. I've never seen Knob 15 in the wild.
First they stopped putting out 12. Said its allocated.
Then I couldn't find 9. Maybe someone made a run? Nope, just "we are keeping this behind the register for now".
WTF
I will make a run out there Friday and let you know.MW03 said:
I would love to find a place in DFW that has KC12 on the shelf.
