Just picked up an Eli. What’d you think of it? Heading back to KY this week and will probably get a few more bottles to bring home. Here’s last week’s haul:

Its pretty good, like it alot. Will get better over time I'm sure. Love any KC store pks also. Price is really good also.

Oban14 is excellent. Always on my shelf.
the Taylor and Bardstown and Penelope Wheated would have come home with me.

That holladay soft red wheat has been occupying rent in my mind. I dont know why I havent bought one yet. I mean I know why. I have a ton of stuff. But it doent make me think about it less.

My cousin is a big fan of this

Some bougi’ness in his thread! I’m done paying too much for bourbon. My favorite has become Old Crow.

There is no correlation with the price of bourbon and its quality. Drink what you like.

I get what you’re saying, there are some low priced options that a person could be perfectly happy with. For me, that’s Redwood Empire Pipe Dream cask strength and even the ultra cheap Bulleit. But I have some high priced stuff in my cabinet that would appeal to the connoisseur and frankly knock the socks off the casual sipper. It depends a lot on taste, but also use case. There’s definitely a correlation in price vs quality, but it’s not an absolute truth…sometimes you pay for the name.

Buff Trace is a shit example - it’s worth the $30 per fifth, but paying more than that is dipshittery…and you talking about it like it’s it’s high class bougie is evidence of ignorance.
