I left JD when they started watering it down but may try their small batch cask strength if I can remember to look for it.

Flaviar has a great selection and, on the whole, their pricing is pretty good. Some of the “Vault” stuff is a little optimistically priced but most of the regular fare is at or near local pricing for me.

I’ll give you a little hint. When you are in the nursing home, breathing your last, your biggest regret won’t be spending $13 more for the good stuff. It isn't $13 or even $20 more that makes me stop for a second; it's when it's over $100/bottle more that I stop and think. On the bright side though, it gives me a reason to try out new brands and offerings.

I was able to do my holiday Bourbon shopping at Buffalo Trace Distillery in October - 2 bottles of Blanton’s and 4 of EH Taylor Small Batch. Very difficult to find any BT products in North Carolina.

Spent hours this summer waiting for the ABC store to open after stocking the new shipment in hopes of finding some Blanton’s or Stagg Jr. Because we were rarely successful we decided to try many of the mid to low priced bourbons. From our tastes: Best bourbon for the money was Eagle Rare. Big surprise in lower priced bourbon was Jim Beam Extra Aged. Again, just our taste.
To: voicereason
Glad I bought 6 bottles of it when I did at Wine and More, because it is next to impossible to find at a decent price point (I bought it at $32/bottle a few years back).Blame Fred Minnick.

I had some Eagle Rare a while back before it got hyped on the whisky channels. Now it's really expensive for a bourbon. Some day I'll treat myself again.$29.99 in PA. You have to be fast.

My go to liquor store sells it for $50....when it is available.
To: who_would_fardels_bear
They sell on the base near where I live. I’ll have to check the price next time I’m there.

Anybody try the single malt from Costco?
I’ve been eyeing that up for 70 bucks a bottle.

Bushmill’s is from Northern Ireland, not the Middleton facility in Cork. Middleton produces excellent whiskeys including Jameson’s, Powers’ Three Swallows and Red Breast. They co-pack for many of the dozens of new brands on the market although at last count there are over two dozen new distilleries in some form of development. Middleton née Irish Distillers is owned by the French major Pernod Ricard
Bushmill’s is a much smaller operation but was purchased by the Beckmann Group from Mexico which we know as Cuervo. It is distributed by their subsidiary Proximo which also owns and distributes Shanahan’s Whiskey, distilled in Colorado.

Did you know that Buffalo Trace is made by the same distillery as Pappy Van Winkle?
