Has anyone tried the Pappy Fermented Cigars yet?
Posted on 6/8/15 at 10:18 am to BourbonSocietyBR

The new cigar uses dual Mexican San Andrés and “tapa negra” wrappers over a blend of fire-cured Kentucky and Nicaraguan tobaccos. Jonathan Drew, co-founder of Drew Estate, explained to halfwheel that both the top leaf and the filler tobacco are grown in Hopkinsville, Ky. and smoked in barns for 14 days. A video on a Pappy Van Winkle Cigar website explains that the tobacco is then transferred to St. James Parish, La. where they are placed in spent whiskey barrels for over a year before ultimately being transferred to the company’s factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.
Gonna have to call my buddy that owns cigar shop here in Houston to see if worth buying.

Anyone know (in Baton Rouge) where you can get the mini airplane sized bottles of liquor? TIA

I'd ask Unc. Those Unc-sized pours must come from huge bottles.

You won't find any of the 50ml airplane bottles anywhere in Louisiana. For some reason they are not sold here. I have seen 100ml bottles on shelves recently but the selection is limited.

where in town have you seen the 100ml ones?

So i can take your word on that and not even bother going anywhere?
You can take it to the bank. I was specifically looking for them a couple of years ago to take on a trip. After research I found that the hotel and restaurant lobby in NOLA is against them is why they are not allowed for sale in Louisiana. Within the last year the 100ml bottle became available though but with limited labels.
Why do you need the airplane bottles?
Posted on 6/8/15 at 10:52 am to jflsufan
Yeah that's true. I really wanted the miniatures of Makers one time for a trip. So my fiancé called the distributor (she worked as a manager in a grocery) and asked them to order a box but they said they don't sell them in the small size in LA.
I saw they had some 100 ml bottles at Albertsons yesterday though. Maybe Jack D and another whiskey or two. They are starting to get slightly more popular down here.

Pretty much any gas station will have them. Circle K, Racetrack for sure.

Yes I have seen at Alberston's as well now that you say that. Last time I was in Orange Beach I picked up a bunch of Maker's, Wild Turkey, JD, and Crown minis.

Please do that and get back to me. I'm curious to say the least. Some people online love them but that may just be because they have the name Pappy on them.

He said they don't sell Drew Estate cigars, and he has a pretty high end shop, so they must not be that good.

BUFFALO TRACE TO UP CAPACITY WITH 50 WAREHOUSES
8th June, 2015 by Amy Hopkins
Buffalo Trace is planning to build an additional 50 warehouses over the next 10 years in order to expand its Bourbon production.
Buffalo Trace will launch a "stand alone" single estate Bourbon brand made using rye, corn and barley grown on its newly acquired land
Buffalo Trace is to build an additional 50 warehouses in order to increase capacity
The news follows Buffalo Trace’s warning that demand continues to outstrip supply of its Bourbon brands, many of which will remain on strict allocation for the “foreseeable future”.
Plans for the warehouses were revealed at the same time as the distiller said it had moved a step closer to distilling a new single estate Bourbon brand by planting the first seeds in 18 acres of recently purchased land.
The producer has acquired 282 acres of land adjacent to its Kentucky distillery over the past six months in order to plant corn, rye and barley with the intention of later releasing a “stand alone” brand of “farm to table” Bourbon.
Buffalo Trace has now planted non-GMO corn from the same strain as used to create Colonel E.H Taylor Bourbon, a limited edition variation of which was recently created using “cured oak” barrels.
Rye and barley will be planted at the site at a later date, while the first crops will be harvested this autumn.
“It’s exciting to now have the first round of seed in the ground,” Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley said. “We’re thrilled to get this project rolling and begin the farm-to-table process.”
Single estate spirits refer to brands that can pinpoint the majority of their productions processes, if not all, to one single area of land, owned by one particular company.
The name, age and price of Buffalo Trace’s new brand have yet to be determined.
The single estate spirits trend has been gaining traction around the globe in recent years, growing in line with demand for “craft” products, as this list of the top 10 farm to bottle spirits shows.
