EHTBP sounds good right about now. Think I'll go for that next.

I know we got some good Lafayette guys in this group. Hope everyone is ok over there. Let us know if y'all are alright and everything. Prayers for the victims and family members tonight.

Only the JPS 17 and JPS 18 are Stitzel Weller juice. The 17 is supposed to be better than the 18 and the lower batch number 18's are supposed to be better than the higher batch numbers (20+). I have never tried the JPS 17 and I had 2 bottles each of JPS 18 Batches 13 and 15. Both were very good and probably the closest thing you will find to pre 2011 Pappy 20.


The only two pours I had from that bottle were blind tastings against an '09 Pappy 15 and a '10 Pappy 20 (all his bottles unfortunately). I picked the JPS17 both times.

I'd love a bottle of my own if people didn't charge $700+ for them.

All good over here. Was sitting on the back porch enjoying some old scout and old grand dad. This is such a sad and scary reminder of how this can happen anywhere, even in our own backyard. So raise your glass and have a drink for those affected tonight.

Thoughts & prayers with Laf tonight...just senseless. I've seen movies there and spent plenty of time at Corner Bar.

I only have 2 17s left as well. The plan is to drink down the regular 18s from the highest batch (13) to the lowest, then open the single barel non chil filtered store pick 18s, then the 17s. I got it all figured out

At that pace I will be collecting Social Security before you finish those off.

Unfortunately this is all I have left of my JPS 18. Transferred what I had left to a smaller bottle to prevent oxidation.

try as yall may those JPS will die a slow death in my cabinet. Unless the oilfield doesnt change and I am out of work and need $

As for getting that many...when I had some and loved it it was also around the time of it being on shelves but no more supplies so I got some. Traded for some of the single barrel store picks. Then sometime a year or so ago a friend was in a ABC store in AL asking me about the 18s. It seems that batch 13 was not released or something becasue the store got like 10 cases and had 2 left...I got one of the cases. One of the 17s I got for around 200$ a while ago and then a real cool TDer posted on here that there was a 17 on a shelf for $98 so I got with him to acquire it for me. And there you have it

With that said I did leave quite a few on the shelves...that I should have grabbed.

How is the Glen 21? I almost got some...I like the 12,15, and 18 so far.

Contradiction was meh to me and FM. Had some EHT SB after and thought the $ would be better spent on that.

Oilfield ain't looking good BAW. I see a lot of jacked up F-150's for sale. If you ever decide to get rid of one I am interested as well.
