What's the boards opinion on Willet Family Estate Rye?


You shut your mouth. It’s terrible. Nobody buy it ever. Swill.

Any chance someone in BR has some Eagle? Friend of mine had a glass of mine a couple weeks ago and is looking for a bottle for his dad and I told him he’s probably shite out of luck.

I'd be willing to bet if you hit a few stores you'd find some

What are y'alls thoughts on the Jim Beam Single Barrel? I was watching a youtube video with some guy that reviews bourbon. And watched one about bourbon for people who like the juice rather than the bottle of Blantons'. Several were mentioned, but one in particular that i've seen at Calandro's was Evan Williams single barrel. @ $31.99 it seems hard to pass up, but i don't want to waste money if it's not any good. I have a bottle of Four Roses single barrel that i can't bring myself to drink, because there is something about it i don't like.

And just for fun, this is what's in my liquor cabinet at the moment.

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked - one of my new favs
Old Forrestor 1920 - One of my favorites. Such great flavor.
Wild Turkey Rare Breed - Also really good
Russel's Reserve Single Barrel (Calandro's pick)
Eagle Rare - My "go to" bourbon
Four Roses Single Barrel - mentioned above
Basil Hayden
Whistlepig Straight Rye - Someone left a half bottle at the house. Not a big fan.
El Dorado 12 year Rum
Infinity bottle - so far the blend is some buffalo trace, eagle rare, high west american prairie and some old Forrestor 1920. It's about 1/4 of the way full.

Infinity bottle for those that are unaware of what this is

ETA: the bourbon was Evan Williams single barrel, not Jim beam.

I've heard it is not bad for the price, bug. That being said, I would probably buy some Old Grandad 114 over that bottle. Cheaper and a nice sweet high rye profile.

Got a really nice haul highlighted by Weller 12. They had Full Proof, CYPB, Stagg Jr, Elmer T Lee, and Blanton’s and others.

Sweet day

I'm finding it all over Lafayette. Champagnes and Whole Foods both had some last time I checked. Still on the hunt for Blantons though.

I like Evan single barrel more than Beam single barrel.
