Glad you tried it again. Good thing about bourbon is that not everyone likes everything.

I do have some exciting news to announce too! Our $20 flight has gone though a small change, we will still have the EH Taylor and Old Scout barrel proofs. Unfortunately The River Room couldn't get Elijah Craig Barrel Proof so we have to settle for a Thomas Handy. Hope everyone is ok with that being our flight instead, especially at the very reasonable price of $20.

No problem. I have the ECBP and it isn't all that great.

Even though they call it the Bourbon Society of BATON ROUGE... People from Lafayette are allowed to attend also...

Just Saying.

Lol I was trying to be sarcastic. Handy is much more popular and rare than ECBP. I don't think anyone will complain about switching those two out.

And we would love for some Lafayette guys to come! I know it's a long drive on a week night. We did do a Saturday event for yall with the hope that some could've made it.

And I heard a rumor that JackD has some liquor to give away.... Or Sell... so he can stay married. It's just a rumor though.

Is this any good?

It hasn't moved in forever, it's in a display case at a convenience store in a not so good area.

Chinese owned place on North Foster right? I picked up some old label Jack Daniels Single Barrel and old Charter 10 there some time ago. I do not think that Cascade Hollow is any good. Left it behind.

Same kind of place in BR that keeps bottles in a display case with hand written sticky note price tags and they have a Cascade Hollow that has been there forever.
