We see them all the time at our house and we are smack dab in middle of Baton Rouge. Funny thing is I had never seen one until we moved to our current house

Will be in Houston this coming weekend. Where's the best whiskey selection? Not talking liquor stores but restaurants, bars, etc.

I've been enjoying some of this lately. It's pretty smooth and I would recommend it.

Reserve 101

Cottonwood very chill place, with great patio area, last time we went they had some Pappy right after it came out, but wouldn't sell any they were saving it for an event


If you are a beer fan make sure to go checkout the new Karbach brewery/restaurant and get the fish and chips.

Ran across some 750ml's of Makers Mark Cask Strength yesterday at my local shop. Had about 7 on the shelf at $52.00 ea. Initial offering was 350ml at nearly $35 so why are the offering double the whiskey for less than double the price? This bottles proof is around 111 I believe. Was the previous bottling as 350ml stronger? Thanks for any help. Also what's the consensus on this stuff? I always shied away before because of the cost.

We have 750s of Cask Strength here. And I do believe they are the same proof as the 375s.

I actually enjoy it, but thats just me

ETA: They are 111 and the 375s are 113. I lied

Nah never had a chance. We ended up running behind so just grabbed a few beers at the flying saucer.

Gotcha. It's worth a stop next time you're in that area. I had an incredible salmon dish there, but no time for an adult beverage.

I'm sure it's been stated 100 times in this thread, but to save me some time, I figured I would just ask you.

Blantons....when will you get the next shipment?

Blantons maybe tomorrow. The ONLY reason I say that is because we get a RNDC delivery tomorrow and we always order Blantons. We will see

Thats all I know
