The slow conversion of NOLAGT from bourbon to the proper brown liquor is continuing.

BTW: It isn't even close. I don't know what happens in that 3 years between 12 and 15 but it is magical.

I am enjoying my first 2 bottles of scotch as well. Glenfiddich 15
Glennfiddich Cask of Dreams.

I picked up a bottle of the Martin's ER 10 private barrel today. ER 10 has definitely become my daily bourbon drinker.

I would be very interested in your opinion on the Whistle Pig Old World. I've had it in my hands a few times but balked at the $130ish price.

It has but it's just kinda pricy compared to the original release.

I'm hoping to get my hands on a ofbb...time will tell. I got a ph and a 4R Le small batch marked off the shopping list.

The last martins store pick er10 was so yummy. Actually all the store pics from there have been delish. I'm nursing my last dickel 14yr from them.

Bookers and Bulleit and Woodford and Makers 46....oh, and Q Bin on Perkins delivers if you live in The Dales or Southdowns. Case minimum and tip the guy $20. Prevents many a DWI

Everything is getting pricey these days, companies taking advantage of the demand. OFBB is up $20 from last year and reviews out there are saying its not as good as previous releases. I always take reviews with a grain of salt though sense everyone has different tastes.

Yea I know. Just didn't want to spend on it this time of year. And I usually don't like reviews...I always think there is a motive behind what they say. Either to pump something or dismiss it so they can get them to flip them. Paranoia [off] on

Man I've been bugging my connect down here about it, introduced me to his rep today and should be good next week. Haven't seen it anywhere in south Florida though. Sucks
