The distillery is about 30 minutes from me. They have done one heck of a job with the micro influencers. They do a great tour, as well, if you ever find yourself in the area.

Be forwarned. Im not a wheat lover.

I liked the weller full proof but was just meh on the 12 yr and 107 red.
I havent liked makers mark and have had 2 bottles I was told were very good.
I like makers in coke though.
The last wheaters I liked were lost lantern cedar ridge 100% winter wheat.

That makes two of us. I’ve given away most of my wheated bourbons. The traditional wheat notes do not jump out to me on the BH products.

I mean being a sticker tater is ok as long as you not a bourbon tater. First knob single barrel bottle I have gotten thats natural cask strenght vs proofed down to 120.

And for those that can read. Thats a 9.66 yr old single barrel for $65. Pretty good value IMO.

I've followed this thread since the beginning and totally get it.
I was a bartender at some high volume establishments for years in my 20's and that led to me owning my own bar/restaurant. I could have easily found myself with shelves full of exotic whiskies at my home bar and admire some of your collections. I love bourbon.
My journey has kept me on more of the brand loyalty trail of Jack Daniels since the early 90's. Not because it's the best but because I acquired a pallet for their small batch bottles. The rockstar outlaw stories of JD paired with nose candy are not a myth and somehow I made it through those decades without loosing my ability to legally own a firearm.
Older and debatably wiser, I've since switched to Wild Turkey Rare Breed. It's everything I like about bourbon.
I still venture into trying different bourbons but fall back to brand loyalty.
I've learned new things from some of your posts and applaud the dedication to American made whisky.

$65 for a bottle of poison that can kill you?
I think not, Scooter!

I’m not usually one to buy into the hype of ultra-rare bottles - plenty of great stuff you can readily find on the shelf - but I will be sad when this one is finished.

The BT is a store pick that is much better than it should be. The other three are all good. Best to my palate is the Dueling Grounds red label.
