No you don't. You'd pay $30 above retail if you wanted it bad. Gotta pay to play

I know I'm in the minority but those old foresters tastes really young to me. I don't see them being older than 6-8 year old juice.

that's probably not far from the truth Unc. The 1897 is BiB so at least 4 years. Prob, 6-8 years while BB is 12.

I just enjoy the taste profile of Old Forester and the 1897 does taste like a less complex and younger BB to me. If I can't get my hands on BB at least I can drink the little brother.

Point me in the right direction and I will be forever in debt.
I can't find it for less than $300
I misread the price you said even though I quoted it

Behold, my clear balls

They are perfectly clear. They have frost on the outside. I'll probably get distilled water or something other than tap in the future because there's probably just in the frost coating from the tap. Pretty damn happy doe.

Word. Mis-read the price even though I quoted it. I can't find it much further south than 300 on the secondary which is absurd. If anyone can't point me in the direction of the price stated on the previous page please let me know

That's the point of the clear ice. It melts much slower than a regular cube. And I don't want them for my straight bourbon drinks but rather my sazeracs and old fashions.

6oz of BT old fashion and a ball fits just right the I he rambler.

NOLA - so you are happy with the wintersmith's end result?

Laffy Baws - I will be in Laffy Saturday morning and may or may not be grabbing lunch in the area depending on timing. What are some good lunch spots? I won't be too far from the I10/I49 intersection.
