I grabbed it at acquistapace in Covington... It was quite dusty and looked like it had been sitting there a while.

That's crazy. Musta been one of those "orphan whiskies" got lost along the way. Finally finds itself on a shelf and gets adopted quickly. Enjoy!

It hasn't been sitting there too long. I was there a couple weeks ago and it wasn't there for sure.

I picked the 2006 and 2015 correctly, and I put the 06 over the 15 but by a very small margins. Two different whiskeys, but not as big of a difference as some would let on from non-tank vs. Tanked juice.

Wow first time coming to the F&D, loving this topic!

I've been into Bourbon for about 3 years (I'm 28), so a ton to learn from the looks of this board! Cheers fellas!

Interesting, it looks like the barrel proof craze is not slowing down.

The employees have a box in the back that allows them to hold one bottle at a time for future purchase. (Not allowed on PVW or BTAC obviously) It was likely one of those. Their last ECBP allotment came and went pretty quickly.
