If anyone is a fan of Old Grand Dad 114, Dorignacs has it on the shelf for $26 this morning.

I like the 114, and with it going out of production, thought it was worth grabbing a couple bottles.

Same here I never had it but always hear others talking about it. I may grab one to try if I come across it.

The 2013 (4R125) won similar honors and goes for around $450. After that they're basically selling slightly above cost - I've seen 2014, 2015 and 2016's for around $175. I know the 2015 was Jim Rutledge's last, but why the huge drop off? Is it just a perception thing? Are the whiskies that much worse? my guess, they ran out of that OBSV that was in every one of the good ones

I still have about 8 ounces of that 2012 Four Roses Small Batch Limited Edition left. I decanted into a smaller bottle a long time ago because the word was that it oxidized very quickly in the bottle. I had 5 bottles of the stuff at one point but we drank it like it was as easy to get as Makers Mark. Come to think of it at the time it was easy to get.

Ill have to look if I have any of that 12/13 small batch LE. I think I have some single barrel LEs from that time frame for sure.

I haven't had the 2012, but I had the 2013 125th and it was by far the best 4r I have tasted. Thanks again Wick
