Tell me about your favorite whiskey or bourbon

Enjoyed a Turkey flight!
I ranked them the the same as the amount of juice left in the bottles as shown in the picture. Over all impression reminds that WT 101 is a great bourbon for the price. The two 8 years had more complexity, a longer finish, and better mouth feel - neck and neck but, the 70th won out. Kentucky Spirit was a tasty 3rd followed by the classic 101.

I was not impressed by the Single Barrel for the price

Some great food, great spirits and beer. But raising $123.7k for the Teen & Kid Closet was the big win.

What is your opinion on it? Personally I was very underwhelmed. Especially being a fan of their Bonded and 114.

Ummmmm. It doesn’t suck. But it definitely is not worth the price. I enjoy it, but at 1/5th the price. Definitely not worth MSRP.

Ok I’d say that is a fair assessment. I was expecting an absolute banger for the money (and the hype surrounding it for that matter), so I came out quite disappointed with the lack of depth/variety of flavor.

I’m in Columbia falls MT on vacation and saw an 18 wheeler backed up to the local liquor store. Decided to see if they were unloading any allocated bottles. Jackpot- $75.

Sad to see this one go. It was a really interesting blend with tons of layers. Made up of two 9 year Indiana bourbon (likely MGP) a 10 year Kentucky and a 14 year Kentucky bourbons.

Today we're having a few friends over for whiskey tasting I've themed "Age is just a number". It's blinds of 10 year bottles from the $50 to $300 price point. The idea being to determine which one of these bottles is our favorite, when we take away all the brand marketing and prestige from the bottles and just let the whiskey do the talking. Here's the line-up - 15 bottles. It's going to be a fun afternoon .
