I grabbed a bottle of the 1792 PF from Martin's the other day. I was not all that impressed on my first pour. Hopefully the second will be better.

These were my thoughts as well. 2nd was better and I won't complain at the 39.99 tag. Honestly everything 1792 has done beyond their ridgemont reserve 8 year age statement has been disappointing IMO.

2PD: Michter's toasted

How's the Michter's Toasted? I've liked just about all of their stuff, aside from the Sour Mash. The only place I've seen it is at Dorignaq's and I won't touch it at $100.

I feel like everyone who has had the toasted enjoys it, but yes the $100 price tag is the reason Dorignacs still has about 20 on the shelf.

Nor should you. That's ridiculous. It's really good but I doubt I'd go above $60 for it. Luckily total wine has had a ton down here in Florida.

3PD: Saz 18. Wife enjoys the good stuff

Cure on Freret has a good selection. BTAC, Parkers Heritage, EC age stated, younger pappiezz, etc.

That's what it thought. I like the look of Cure on freret in the pics I saw too. Pretty swank looking. So I may hit up cure and Avenue pub. Then elios because I've never shopped there.

2PD: EHTBP
3PD: Sazerac
4PD: Sazerac

FPD: Death by Coconut

Probably couldn't drink a lot of these in one sitting but it is interesting.

Yeah, I should have suggested Cure over Avenue Pub. Other than the large selection at AP, everything else about that place sucks.

These may be the last EC12's I ever buy. I hope the new 8-12 yr version is just as good. This is my favorite bourbon for an Old Fashioned.

I absolutely hated the 1792 small batch neat.

Given a little ice, it is pretty nice.
