Taking a play from the gardening world, is anyone interested in participating in a sample swap?

You sign up, get paired with a person, and send each other a couple of random samples from your collection. It could be BTAC or Willett, doesn't matter, just something for folks to blind and rank and maybe discover something new.

WT 8yr is just what you expect.

101 but…. Better.

I'll probably pick up a couple more bottles to keep stashed away.

A buddy brought me a couple bottles back from Kentucky.

Really looking forward to cracking the Buzzards Roost Cigar Rye.
I picked one up (Cigar Rye) at their tasting room about a year ago. It's interesting and I'm interested to see if you like it. I liked it there but by the time I got it home and poured it I lost interest in it. If you like it let me know and maybe I can find away to get my bottle to you.

Is there a general taste or flavor involved with the cigar blends?

It's super ambiguous and up to interpretation by the blender. Is it supposed to taste like a cigar? Is it supposed to go well paired with a cigar? It's varied depending on brand

Buzzards Roost actually tastes like a cigar. I really enjoy cigars but that flavor didn't do it for me in a glass.

Has anyone tried Woodinville 8? Reviews seem amazing and it's popping up in Houston now.

Yes and it's the only Maker's other than Cellar Aged that I've ever enjoyed. Good pour.

I am attempting to buy some "1792 Sweet Wheat" bourbon from an online site here in Texas:

www.thebestbourbongalaxy.com


Has anyone dealt with this site before?

Man I am SUPER curious but would be incredibly skeptical of that one. If someone has used it and been successful, though, gonna grab me a Blanton SFTB for $110.

Edit: Looked at Google maps with that address, and don't see a Best Bourbon Galaxy there, and when you google their phone number, the BBB has them listed with an F grade. Reviews on there say it is a scam. People paid, and then never received their shipment.

Not the end all be all, but BBB has me quite leery.

Number is also associated with another website, thebestpharmacystore. They've got quite the business model over there!

Thank goodness my credit card transaction didn't go through.

I guess I will keep on searching for my "1792 Sweet Wheat".

Old Forester signature 100 is universally praised as a budget bourbon.

I'm not a fan of OF personally but the people love it.

I love OF stuff.
1910. 1920. SBBP. King Ranch is pretty good, but not as good as some other stuff. Birthday bourbon has still not been found be a schlub like me.

No on Jeffersons.

OF100 is decent budget bourbon. Good enough to drink and makes a good mixer as well.

Not a big Old Forester guy but the 100 is a great budget option. And it's a perfect flavor profile for eggnog.
