You're right, even without buying anything too fancy pants it was a decent haul. There was a part of me hoping to luck into a bottle of Elijah Craig barrel proof but they didn't have it (total wine is basically a big box retailer for liquor so I didn't have much hope) My normal shop has it, but at $80 I'm hesitant to pull the triggerRuffinogold wrote: ↑Sat Sep 15, 2018 2:14 pm" Nothing spectacular " !? .. man , that sounds like a spectacular run to me .

Didn't find anything spectacular but grabbed another handle of Evan Williams, a bottle of OGD 114, and Bernheim wheat whiskey (a heaven hill product)

Good God in heaven, there was an extra $20 in the budget this month!!
Old Grandad Bonded will be my libational treat until the holidays are over.
It might last even longer than that, considering I've been involuntarily sober for over a month and my ETOH tolerance is nonexistant
La'chiam, friends! Tonight I mix OGD Bondage with hard cider for a sweet sweet Snakebite.

All good choices,I've actually had them all.That being said in my humble opinion the sleeper of the bunch is the OF Signature 100 proof.I buy it in 1.75's by the case.Best value coming out of Kentucky.I think it drinks better than most $50+ bourbons.

Damn !
Well gentleman .... I went to the dark side the other day . Cown Royal Apple . Had some Thanksgiving and knew jennifer would love it ( shes a hard cider fan ) . Its incredibly smooth . A bit sweet and could use more whiskey flavor but still very good . I made A glaze with it for a pork loin ...it as insane
I have a bottle if OGD114 but haven't pipes it yet . Other than that ... I'm out of bourbon !!! I have half a bottle of Black Velvet Reserve still and I'll finish it off . I'll get to a package store as some point . I sure wish there were one in my county .
I'm curious as to the Old Bardstown... Never Had it . All your choices look fantastic !!

If you mix about 60% crown royal maple and 40% crown royal apple it tastes like a caramel apple. I tried it in a liquor store once because their sales girl was super hot.Ruffinogold wrote: ↑Tue Nov 27, 2018 8:54 pmDamn !

The Old Bardstown is very good. Hits my tasters as a little more woody / leathery at the start
