Had this tonight. I'd love to hear other thoughts. It was really unique a floral start that was sweet with a peaty finish.

I got gifted a GB honey dew for my birthday and it is a terrible concept
It's probably not fair but I bought a bottle of that and it turned me off of GB completely. I do think price factors into the formula cuz there are so many other excellent options for even half the price. That said, even if it was $20 I wouldn't buy it.


Same here. Heard good things about GB Honey and it tasted like dish soap. Maybe I'll sample of their $$$ products and give it another shot.
Same for me. It had the most floral taste I've ever encountered.

The scotch/peat over powers it and ruins it for me.

I'd have to agree. High West does this sometimes with their American Prairie Bourbon. "Finished in peated scotch barrels"

Peat is like an IPA to me, too pungent. Personal preference of course but I enjoy neither.

This is the only High West finish that I've had and thought "man that's just not very good". Typically their finishes are pretty solid

Quick question, at Still Austin and they have Nancy Fraley picks. If it is not a single barrel how do they do picks? Do they pick multiple barrels they think are good. I guess in my mind I thought most picks were single barrels, but apparently I haven't thought this through.

Figured it out the picks are single barrel. Thanks for the quick replies.

Headed to Kentucky for a weekend this summer. Realistically, we may be able to hit two distilleries. What would y'all recommend being limited to two?

BTis always good and you could score a Blanton's, Eagle Rare, or EHT smB.

Woodford has a beautiful facility/tour as well. Maker's is fun for dipping your own bottle in wax.

If dipping bottles into wax is your thing, head on over to Garrison Brother's.

If it ain't from Kentucky (or Indiana, at least) it ain't good.

We lucked out the last time we went to BT as my wife had just graduated from law school. We took 13 people on the tour and they happened to have Blanton's and Eagle Rare available. Each person could buy one bottle each. We are still drawing down from our haul that day.

$500

But I know that's unrealistic besides retail

Honestly, I'd do $1k for it and feel okay.
