Waited in line for about an hour to buy this bottle this morning. Well worth it.

That's retail for Willett, and I doubt you'll regret it.

Good evening t00f. This is an Acquistapace's pick from right down the road in Kiln.

Pretty good first impression. I didn't get a lot of complexity, but it's an enjoyable sip. I'm going to revisit with a full pour in a few days. I like the transparency (mash bill, barreling dates etc on back) and the fact they're using their own stuff. 53 bucks for a homegrown, five year and 120 proof whiskey is solid. We've got some good stuff going on in the region.

How's it going epic? The marshmallow note pairs well with the weather.

I'm thinking along similar lines with my first pour.

It’s going man, how’s the little one treating you?

Yeah, this one is pretty solid. I have to say though, my favorite from KLuke so far is their batch 6 barrel strength. Their toasted bottles seem a bit younger.

I like the barrel strength batches better than the toasted bourbon, but that opinion also holds in general (toasted sometimes gets too sweet and can obscure other notes). I thought batch 1 of the rye was better than 2, but they're similar profiles. Overall, I haven't regretted any KLuke purchases.

The little guy is doing well and turns two this week. It's a lot of fun,but I don't know how people with three or four kids handle it.I'm sure you can relate!

t00f, I recently mentioned that to a manager. He said sales are actually a little higher than last year, but there's just so many products flooding the market. It makes sense. Something like 1910 or larceny bp was flying off shelves initially, but people aren't necessarily coming back for bottles 3 and 4. Instead they're trying one of the many new offerings.

And while secondary prices have dropped, there have been quite a few brands implementing price increases. Speaking of one, 2pd
