Been wanting to try this one. Last few makers bottles I got were kind of underwhelming. This however is great. I’m gonna have to get a back up bottle while it’s still around.

The RR discount pick was the last one I got that I thought was just okay. Maybe it just needs to open up a bit.

I really liked their 1792 and Old Forester picks however. Today they got a Whistle Pig 15 that I’m sure I’ll scoop.

That looks like a fresh bottle. Do you know if there’s any left at Calvin’s?

Cracked it tonight but bought it late last year so no shot they have any left. It was a bargain at $34 for a 1.75 but it’s not a great pour by any means.

Got a new bottle of Elios Russell’s Reserve that is fantastic. Just got it last week and it’s almost gone. Great stuff.

I got to try some of that smoke wagon the other night. Pretty gud!

I like this new makers. I have had some good store pics and ones from makers themself. I’m a fan of them tho. The 101 is ok I may prefer the regular barrel proof one tho. I’ll revisit.

Seattle following the NOLA theory that the Rona comes out after 10pm and requires all bars and restaurants to quit serving or close at 10pm. At least this place offered me these pouches to take my pours to go, which leads to hotel pours.

Would be nice, but per their website we aren't on the list. Sucks, because I really want a bottle.

I am driving through Florida in 2 weeks to go to Panama City, so I am hoping to get a chance to check out a few liquor stops on the way. It appears this was released at the end of august LINK, so I'm sure they are all gone. May get lucky though. Who knows.
