ShocksMyBrain 9,364 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Drank more of that Nikka From the Barrel at the company Christmas party tonight. It’s so good. I can now see why it was #1 2018 Whiskey of the Year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShocksMyBrain 9,364 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 This is so, so good. It’s better than SR and 12yr. 107 is still my favorite, but CYPB fills some gaps. $60 bottle. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll get my hands on some allocated Weller- any of them- again someday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have store picks of that available all the time. We actually just sampled for our next barrel, which were uncut around 130-140 proof. They’ll add water to get it to 120, but the samples we got were pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's something else I love about that bourbon. They made a sh** ton of it.

aubearcat 2,137 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 I just finished up some Irons One over the Christmas holiday. It's a whiskey from a distillery in Huntsville. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t had a chance to try it yet with call obligations through the holidays but look forward to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubearcat 2,137 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I’m somewhat curious about what y’all’s go to bourbon/whiskey is. I normally drink Buffalo Trace or Eagle Rare if I don’t find something different that really interest me. If I’m going cheap, I go with Wild Turkey 🦃 101. Eagle Rare is very nice for a relatively good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
