Nosir...he was a recovered alcoholic originally from eastern Ky. I'm actually not sure if he purchased it new and drank the contents or just ended up with the crate. He liked old vintage items or anything else he thought cool so it wouldn't have been unusual for him to have it either way. Stuff like this is what sits around my shop and horn room...I don't do a lotta shoppin at Kirklands lol.

I finally cracked open that bottle of Basil Hayden subtle smoke and that a big NOPE for me. I'd rather have MD20/20

Had Dickel 12 year on Saturday. Pretty damn good for cheap whisky. Went great with some Mountain Dew

I have a friend who always has a bottle of Dickle in the fridge and he always offers and I generally accept a shot but if I’m honest I’m not too fond of that deep charred taste in Tennessee sour mash whiskey.

That's high. I bought a bottle at a store in Bowling Green a few weeks ago for $32.

I used to buy Rebel Yell, not for the taste, but because I liked that Confederate mounted officer on a rearing horse with his saber drawn. Not since they got all politically correct, I haven’t bought one bottle in years.

When I was real young, I’d pick up a pint of Bowling Green. Cheapest stuff on the planet. I used to tell everybody it was aged a whole day.

Sorry guys. I found a new love. Grey Goose vodka making Moscow Mules. I might have to use my bourbon to make a Kentucky Mule.

We're on an Old Fashioned kick here right now.... My current favorite is Knob Creek Smoked Maple with simple sugar & walnut bitters. My husband's is one made with Blackberry Whiskey, simple syrup, and orange bitters. p.s. I tried one last night with Skatterbrain & walnut bitters. It wasn't BAD but it was way sweeter than I expected so I won't be doing that one again.

Buddy in MD found 2 releases of Blantons that are not normally sold in the states, and found a Four Roses Super Premium also usually sold only in Japan. Asked if I wanted them but they were to dear in price for my taste. The one Blantons is only sold in Europe usually, has the gold top. Can't remember the other.

BIB 100 $26 at this store.

$110 seems steep.

We may have a new favorite......
