Bourbon

That batch 1 12 year is soooooo good. I know they have an approved label for a 14 year, but haven’t heard anything about it dropping.

Yeah I saw that, hopefully if they do release it I can get one.

Picked up a bottle of Russell’s 10 y.o. bc this thread thanks guys

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.

I usually have some more exotic stuff around, but I seem to be low at the moment.

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.

picked these up this week.
I love four roses in nearly any form.

Those look like solid picks. I've had good luck with 4 Roses yellow label as well as their single barrel varieties.

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.
