Other people's drinks. A lot of other people's drinks.

Honestly I haven't been drunk like that since, and this was a good reminder of what it was like. I might joke about being "drunk" now, but I won't ever be like that. Feels good to know that I can enjoy whiskey without being that guy ever again.

Friday night question for the bourbon board:

And I'm NOT condoning this!

What is the most expensive thing you have purchased while drunk? Online, in person, etc


Got bombed in college and ordered a roomba off of eBay.

Best thing I've ever bought

Sounds like you grew up a lot. Learned from your actions. We don't need to erase the past, but learn from it. That's why college is…..college.

For my money you really can't beat British speakers. I've had plenty of different systems over the years and always keep going back to them.

Oh lawd, that's a good one. Well juiced and bought a very expensive elephant parade replica from Tangs on orchard road in Singapore, love that thing and proudly sits in my dining room. A wristwatch i have no reason to own. A bar tab that would make you blush after the Ags beat zero u in the cotton bowl... Singapore was fun

It's probably not available this late, but I really enjoyed the tour and tasting at Lux Row in Bardstown.

The Willett tour was my least favorite of all I did, but their bar was very good.


Makers Mark and Woodford Reserve by far have the best properties and offer great tours. Believe it or not Wild Turkey was not bashful about finances and taxes. I found it interesting. Willett used to sell Family Reserve Bourbon (11 yr, 12yr, and 13yr) regularly. Its a shame they stopped. Heaven Hill down the road is a great tour.

Aside from those... take your pick!

I don't remember...but probably several times.
I was really dumb. I mean I made the angry drunk college dudes look smart sometimes.

Edit to add - took me looking at my life and realizing I was headed toward alcoholism to turn my life over to Jesus. I slowed my roll considerably since then.

Most memorable was a subscription to eHarmony a while after I divorced my first wife when my buddy visited over Memorial Day weekend after he returned to the states from being deployed in the Middle East. I had resisted online dating big time, and talking to him about his family made me say screw it and sign up. I had no recollection until I saw the emails the next day about setting up a profile. Said what the hell and gave it a shot. Now I'm very happily married to a woman I met through eHarmony, and we have three amazing young children.

Moral of the story - not EVERY drunk decision is a bad decision!

Yes, but I don't know the price. Could be on the higher side as it's a small mom and pop. I can ask if I swing by tomorrow.

Thank you. I would appreciate it. I don't mind paying a little above retail.

Thank you, I did not even think to search Specs online. I went by one yesterday and today with no luck.

That might be the Private Barrel instead of the normal batch, but my local Specs did just get regular ECBP not too long ago.

Needed to head up to San Antonio this morning and pick up some things for my new place. Meet up with bigtexD to swap some bottles for a Woodward 5 Malt.

After running some errands decided to stop by Alamo City Liquor on the way home. Im glad i did. If you are in San Antonio you owe it to yourself to shop here. Killer selection of Rye, Bourbon, and the best ASM selection i have ever seen. For the picks i saw ECBP, 1792 FP, Balcones 1, and some others that looked intriguing like a Rebel 10.

Im lucking i got out of there without dropping a ton of cash. I did pick up a Stranahan's Empire State Brandy Cask that is supposed to be distillery only? and a bottle of Westward Stout cask that i have been looking for.







Anyone every seen a 1L 1792?



A random KC18


Stranahan's and Westward Suites.

Is KC18 a yearly release?

It is their big annual release. 192 is a little over MSRP but certainly not crazy.
InnocentBystander99

Not crazy at all. I have KC18 from last year that I really like. Prefer it over the 15yr.

What are your thoughts on these bottles? Both are around $80 each. They also had an EHT single barrel store pick for $200 (I'm passing on this one).
