Elk camp Bourbon

[wytx]

Weller or Makers.
Have some Palisade peaches steeping in Makers 101 right now for a sweeter sip this Fall, honey added to smooth it out.

 

[CoWapiti]

Buffalo Trace, Larceny, or 291 Rye if I'm feeling fancy. It's not a bourbon, but it is outstanding.

16 years sober here so I don't drink, but.......

Last year, some buddies left a box with some fancy unopened bourbon in their Air BnB. I left camp and visited them to shower before they checked out. I took the bottle, which was in a nice box, back to camp. When I departed a few days later, I stacked the remainder of the firewood nicely next to the firepit...for the next group. I wrapped the box in some clear plastic and hid it 1/2 way in the stack with a Happy Hunting note. It's a pretty popular area and usually has a camp set up for the rifle seasons.

When I returned this year for a quick spring turkey trip, the firewood had been used....so I'm guessing I made some hunter's day....free wood and bourbon. Maybe the karma will pay off this year..

Bulleit 10 year Bourbon, reminds me of old western bars.
Frontier Whiskey

 

[Gman12]

Basil Hayden has been my go to. If I kill early I most likely will have to make another trip to the liquor store.

C'mon guys.....

Old Elk

Or Stranahans....

Old Elk is out of business.

Maker’s gets it done for me.

But I usually go off the sauce a few weeks before the season to round out my training and lock in for the hunt.

This year I have a couple of lushes joining so maybe I’ll make an exception… what could possibly go wrong?

I’ve reconfigured my Go Box to take along Wild Turkey Rare Breed. Regular for sipping and the Rye for Old Fashioned's.

I am going to take this opportunity to brag as I did a little hunting yesterday after work while I was out of town:





That EHT SB will definitely make it to a wall tent somewhere someday.

 

[MistyMountain]

Bulleit is my favorite for the price. Basil Hayden is one I really, really like if I can stomach the price.

But for the hunting theme...I gotta go Wild Turkey 101 or maybe Tin Cup for the Colorado vibe.

 

[Thisisme2828]

Old forester 1920 will always be my go to

 

[Elkhntr08]

Blanton usually but lately it’s been St Elmo’s.

 

[Cdnance]

I go through phases and like to try different bottles fairly regularly my go to right now are
Bardstown Bourbon, both white and black label
Bullet single barrel
Chicken cock single barrel

All of these are less than $50-$60 bucks and really good sippers.

Im a pendleton and pendleton rye guy but we had some taylors high end whiskey boy was that a treat

 

[Scoot]

I'm not a burbon guy but i'm going to buy a bottle for a friend who I owe. Should i get him Eagle Rare, Blanton, or Bookers?

 

[camping1601]

Wild Turkey 101

Any would be good but personally I'd lean towards the Eagle Rare.

EHT SB is damn fine bourbon, better than the entry level Pappy imo. Just cracked some Weller Full Proof, this is def bull camp/Christmas bourbon.

 

[Diamondback]

Vote for Eagle Rare.

Blanton if less than $80 bottle, eagle is meh, Bookers is good. Henry McKenna green label is solid if you see it.

This year I’m thinking one of the following:

Jack Daniels 14 year
Jack Daniels 12 year batch 1 or 2
Weller Full Proof
Stagg Jr
George T Stagg
