Bourbon

I was able to get a bottle of Little Book today at the local Costco.

Picked up a Russell’s 15yr, probably won’t crack it for awhile, kind of worried it won’t be as great as my 13yr.
 
Eagle Rare - can't get much better bourbon no matter the price
Weller 10 yr - Was excellent for the price but now impossible to find. Best of the Wellers.
Jeffers Creek - Big surprise bourbon! Fantastic, lighter bourbon at a low price.
Wooderford Reserve - Good general bourbon to always have around.
Jim Beam Black - I'm broke but want a good bourbon.

Just IMHO....
 
My son picked me up a very nice bottle from a brand I'd never heard of this past week. It is a single barrel "Total Wine" store pick which is a chain we don't have in Iowa. If you guys like bourbon as well as rye, i highly recommend it. It has some very nice maple notes, zero burn, and similar viscosity as rare breed.

I have tried the OBSK and its really nice. Im lucky enough that I can jump between store single barrel picks and small batch select.
Reburn,

Are you picking from this gem or just taking the recipe that is available?

I wish I could say I have popped open my taster. But its still mint in the box.

However. Ryes are my jam. Most high rye bourbons make my taste buds happy. So I was pretty sure the B mashbill I would like
The OBSK is basically a rye profile which I know I like.
The OBSQ is a little different with the floral but its a barrel pick from a store that I shop at that in the past has had excellent barrel picks.

I opened the OBSQ this afternoon and its very good as well.
 
I just reconfigured my Old Fashioned GoBox for Wild Turkey Rare Breed; regular for sipping and just made the best OF with the Rare Breed Rye 👍
 
My favorite is EH Taylor. Penelope Toasted is good also. Everyday go to and hard to beat for a simple bourbon is Makers 46. I was able to get a bottle of Elijah Craig Single Barrel 18yr and that is really nice!

That's a local Indiana distillery, they also brew some beer, Quaff On Busted Knuckle is good stuff.
