  1. Can someone school me on all these abbreviations? I use to go to Buffalo Trace fairly often when I lived in Oldham County. Eagle Rare was always my favorite but I would try some of their single barrel stuff (Pappy Reds maybe?). But the more expensive stuff seemed to usually be higher proof which I generally didn't like as much. Maybe, I'm the exception though.

    OFBB- Old Forester Birthday Bourbon
    M10- Michter’s 10 yr
    MWND-Mid Winters Night Dram
    RHF- Rock Hills Farm
    ECBP-Elijah Craig Barrel Proof

  2. Do you like the Rock Hill or Barrel Proof better? 

    The ECBP definitely has more heat being almost 30 proof higher, but I have to give the flavor edge to the RHF. You can really tell it’s kin to Blanton’s, tad sweeter and a longer better finish.
    If you have the means, I highly recommend you pick one up.

    Cheers ya surly bastards.

    After what I have seen offered for RHF I’m looking for OFBB or Mi10 Single Barrel or MWND.

    Or something similar. And I would mail.

    If you are getting someone willing to offer any of those for the RHF, jump on it.  I am not one of those.  Hell, OFBB and M10 are going for over $250 on the secondary market while RHF is going for about $125 or so. I have all three of those but they are so good I couldn't resist opening them as soon as I got them and start drinking them.  

  4. Lil BigD had his follow up visit with the neurologist today with another EEG.  Still showing signs of epilepsy but the Depakote is working.  No seizures of any type since 4/26.  Won't need another EEG until next summer and there aren't any adverse side effects to the medication thankfully.  It still stings a little to have to see him go through the tests though and he had to be asleep for this one today which meant sleep depriving him last night which sucked balls.  But we made it up to him by taking him to see the Incredibles 2 after the Dr today.

  5. Not sure, but I believe the IVth was released in October. It is pretty easy to find for retail. Honestly, it can be found below retail on the secondary market if that tells you anything. I think suggested retail was $500. I see it for $450 at places like Spec's and TW. I bought a bottle in London, where it is everywhere for $350.
    I see a bottle on FB right now for $430 shipped where you wouldn't be paying sales tax. With any kind of effort you could get it for $400.
    There are better ryes out there that are much cheaper.
     
     

    Preach. Hell I’d put Pikesville Rye up there as one that’s better and it’s $50.
