Business is booming.

We have a reward system now too.

Buy 5 handles of Sunny Brooks and you get a case of our TexAgs Walking Stick pick at cost.

This thread is starting to sound like the business plan for the old Sazerac distributer. We doing a fireball pick?

It's just this one bottle guys. Put this forum on your follow list and pay attention to when AT says he's posting a bottle signup list. It's pretty easy to get in on 98% of the bottles if you do that. Most of these picks aren't short barrels with low yields and you'll have a chance at one, if not multiple bottles.

Plenty of drinkers available at OLC.

Peerless Double Oak Bourbon and Larceny BP on the shelves

I spoke to him about doing a High West Double Barrel Rye Single barrel pick.

Apparently they don't let you choose the barrel, they send you a random single barrel and he said that's now how he does business. I couldn't agree more, every barrel is very different.

No joke. He's got a reputation to keep of making good choices and if they just sent him a random barrel labeled as a barrel pick it could tarnish that for him.

Rittenhouse single barrel pick looks intriguing.

Does he have a decent American Single Malt selection?

BrokeAssAggie could probably chime in about that one. Out of my wheel house but he has a lot of good stuff.

He offered me this one as well. I have no idea about it but I'll try something new at least once.

That Blue Note is a pretty decent pour for the price.

My dream pick would be a Michter's Rye SiB with a nice Aggie Baseball tater sticker for Fryeday night games. I don't even know that they do picks, but a guy can dream haha.

I thought it's good for the price. Not great. Worth getting once.

They don't do picks, but we have a pretty good in if they ever decide to.

I didn't think so, but they make some of my favorite juice. Definitely my favorite ryes.

We've added a member to the pick team with ties to Michters Distillery.

Hopefully he can work some Olsen Magic

That might be the next rye I buy.

Tried it at a local whiskey bar and I really enjoyed it.

This. It's really not that hard guys.

The cask strength rye should be hitting Texas before too long. It is very good and I'd take it over the standard rye everyday. Michter's version of cask strength isn't as high as most, since they use a lower entry proof, so it's not too hot to enjoy either.

That would be amazing but unfortunately they don't do barrel picks. I've got a ticket for the Michter's founders tour next month, hoping to pick up a few allocated bottles while I'm there. I went bourbon hunting today and just missed out on the 10 yr bourbon and the barrel strength rye.

I am not a fan of the 1792 at all. Not sure if I'm in the minority bit was disappointed

Which variation did you have? The standard small batch isn't great, and I have known a couple people who get the single barrel and get a bad batch. Sometimes the full proof needs some time to breath and mellow out. But generally, I find the Full Proof and Single Barrel to be outstanding for the money.

Michter's rye are great. The shelfer is fantastic but the M10R, Barrel Strength, and Toasted are some of the best imo. They're very approachable for bourbon drinkers, even if you don't typically like rye.

Great news. I've tried it and it's a fruit bomb. So good. Definitely hoping to get a bottle because I think it's better than the toasted and up there with the '23 10 year. (Which is saying something)

I'm going at the end of the month! Hoping to score something as well. You going to go in the morning before it opens, or what's your plan?

The 1792 FP is one of the best bang for your buck bottles I have tried.

Also, heard good things about Rittenhouse Rye picks.

For $35, I was willing to take a chance. Figured it was worth a shot

The ECBP seems like a good buy for $69.
