  1. Nacho won’t die. He is referenced in Saul’s first episode in Breaking Bad even though he never appears in the series (https://breakingbad.fandom.com/wiki/Nacho_Varga). I’m guessing he takes out Lalo by the end of next season and replaces him in the Cartel.
  2. Yup, had a few pours of it last night. I have OF 1920 and OF Rye, so this was a nice addition to the lineup.
  3. I picked up an Old Forester Single Barrel store pick today (Twin Liquors). Anyone tried this one before?
  4. I’ve started kicking around ideas for mine. Based on what I currently have, this is what I’m thinking of starting with: 4 oz Eagle Rare 2 oz OF 1920 2 oz Maker’s Mark Private Select 2 oz Elijah Craig Barrel Proof (C919) 2 oz Russell Reserve SiB Some other stuff I have on hand that I haven’t decided to add includes: McKenna 10, Buffalo Trace, Weller SR, OF Rye, Redemption Wheated, Early Times BiB, OGD 114 and Balcones Baby Blue.
  5. If you can find it, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof will run you about $80. One of the best rated bourbons of 2019. If he’s a fan of high proof then he should like this one.
  6. Had one last night. About to make another tonight. On my second one of the evening. Made with Weller SR
  7. I’ve given up trying to find Eagle Rare in the wild, so I just buy it online. I see it pretty regularly online for $30-35/bottle plus shipping. Just buy a few bottles so it makes the shipping cost worthwhile.
  8. Well with many of these restaurants likely to go under, it’s not too much of a stretch to think that could happen here in the future.
  9. Breaking my rye cherry tonight with some Old Forester rye. Wanted to go with a more budget option before moving up to the pricier bottles, but in my experience OF delivers great bang for your buck.
  10. I hope this show doesn’t go the same route as Trueblood where it started making every character supernatural. Once everyone became a vampire/werewolf/shape shifter/fairy, etc. the show went to shit.
  11. I tried calling the Stonewerks by my house (they carry Blanton’s) and was told they wouldn’t be doing anything like that. Could have just gotten a hold of the wrong person to talk to, so I’ll probably try calling again.
  12. I found some fun YouTube reviewers called Bourbon Junkies that were pretty entertaining. I think they’re based on Michigan, but they have several great reviews of a wide variety of bourbon and seem to know their stuff. They don’t take themselves too seriously and appear to be genuine enthusiasts. Feel free to check them out if you’re so inclined.
  13. I have a Private Select from Alamo City Liquors and enjoy it quite a bit.
  14. Anyone ever tried Early Times BiB? I read several good reviews of it as a quality lower priced bourbon. I picked some this afternoon, but curious what you guys think about it.
  15. Unfortunately I don’t have anything unopened to trade. Still building up my collection, but I’ll drop you a DM if I come across something interesting.
  16. What is this magical site? I’m just looking for a fucking bottle of Blanton’s in San Antonio.
  17. Yeah, I paid $65 for it. I’m sure it’s overpriced, but I’m still looking to figure out what I like and I’m willing to overpay for the first bottle. If I don’t like it I just won’t buy it anymore.
  18. Hasn’t seen it around in a while, but picked up some McKenna 10 tonight.
  19. It looks like there is a silicone mold that you put over the glass and then you fill the mold with water and then freeze the glass. Then you pour your bourbon on the ice mold. Click on the link and there’s a picture with step by step instructions of how it works.

  21. Feeling like a Maker’s Mark Private Select and Eagle Rare kinda night.
  22. One would have to think that some of the rarer bourbons won’t be gobbled up by bars and restaurants and actually make it to liquor stores. I can’t imagine they’ll be buying as much as they normally over the next few weeks, so maybe some of us will be lucky enough to land some W12 or Blanton’s. Trying to stay positive in the COVID-19 hysteria!

    I think the security guard broke the Russian’s neck against the tire.
