Where in BR can you find PVW's or BTAC's at a bar (other than Churchills) and what do they run? I remember 20 years ago, the first time I ever tried JW Blue, I paid $15 a glass, thought I was out of my mind paying $15 for a drink. Hell, I pay that now for a Goose martini at any restaurant in BR.

Yea you bring it out for a game...and you will dent it pretty fast. What I generally do is start off drinking with a glass of the good stuff...then move onto regular pours after that. Last longer that way and you can enjoy it.

I'll just keep my bottles in Lafayette to make sure.. I'll let them have the stagg jr! Pretty sure they'd go back to crown afterwards.

Hope you enjoy it. I'm really liking the 9 from Martins.

Also picked up the Willett Rye for today. Did a side by side with the bulleit rye and it wasn't even close. Worth the extra $ IMO.

I couldnt control myself.... cracked open my bottle of PVW 15.... I honestly couldn't tell much difference between the Lot B and 15 yr.

Damn, I've got an unopened stagg Jr at home and you guys are really making me not want to open it. I guess I'll just do the horrible whiskey progression:
1. Neat
2. 1 ice cube
3. arse-loads of ice or water
4. Shove it in the back of the cabinet and occasionally look at it with disdain.
5. Mix it with coke and eventually choke it down.

Good to know for next year. I tasted a good bit of difference between the 15 and 20. The 20 is magical juice.
