  1. What part is misleading? Putting the number 16 on the bottle?
  2. It’s 16th in the series, but the whiskey is blended from multiple barrels and includes juice as old as 17 years.
  3. I got one today. Loving the new bottle shape.
  4. Weird. It's almost like all the rumors and speculation are good for their business. Which is not to say that it's happening. We should just be honest about their motivation in these situations.
  5. Don’t get me wrong, I have my favorites. I’d probably be fine sipping Bardstown Discovery series 2 or 3 every night if I could afford it. The Magnus Cigar Blend is way up there too.
  6. I don’t believe in having a daily drinker. I mean, I get the concept but I personally reject it. I have ~60 open bottles ranging from $25 up to $200 and I am constantly switching it up. I greatly prefer variety and basically never drink the same bottle more than once in a week.
  7. I have a bottle of Single Barrel Rye that is outstanding. That’s my recommendation.
  8. I saw the 1792 12 year marked up to $80 this weekend. Nothing I read online suggested it was worth it, so I passed. Curious to hear your thoughts on it.
  9. I pulled that 4R out for the first time in a couple of months tonight. Ain’t nothing wrong with it at all. Very drinkable dram.
  10. Is anyone checking flightaware for signs that the Kraken will be released soon?
  11. I saw 5 bottles of that Michter’s at Specs in South Austin today. Don’t know anything about it though. I also saw 2 bottles of EC18 today, and they were asking $400 each for them. Utterly ridiculous. I’ve been underwhelmed with the one bottle I have had this year, and wouldn’t buy another at MSRP.
  12. Strong. Great score at that price. Hat tip.
  13. What’d that set you back if you don’t mind sharing?
  14. Did he say they will never silence “our” voters? It’s just the others voters that should be silenced?
  15. They were going to publish the results from mail in votes tomorrow afternoon. Apparently someone mentioned that there are a lot of people interested in the results, so they pulled the timeline up to later this evening.
  16. A buddy and I each picked up a bottle from Deb’s in Austin back in late May or early June. Not sure how to tell if it’s a 2020 bottle or a 2019.
  17. That’s not the small batch. That’s the straight bourbon. The small batch is ~$60 and comes in the bottle that has the nicer bottle with the vines blown into the glass with a gold medallion.
