You have a $25 bottle matched with a $50 and $70 (or at least in these ranges if I don't remember precisely their prices). Besides that, the BT doesn't even compare to those other two. It's good for $25, but that's about it. BT is incredibly overrated given its demand an allocation now.


I think you got confused because he had 3 bottles in the picture. The Buffalo Trace is irrelevant. He's asking which should he keep and which should he gift between the Penelope Toasted and the Barrell Private Release.

I would keep the Barrell, but I'm sure others may disagree with that choice.

Yeah it definitely was not clear then. It came off as him asking which of the three he should keep or gift. I simply laid out the comparison of the three without any sarcasm, but apparently he's sensitive about his choices and took it as such.


Personally I would keep the Penelope, but I'm not big on the barrel releases. Plus these are two completely different taste profiles. Toasted is offputting to some.

why are you even asking us which you should keep for yourself if you already know the answer? keep that BT for your cocktails, homeboy. you do you and give one of those better bottles away. if you think that BT is fiyah, then keep on mixing it with your diet coke.

you asked us which bottle you should gift. I laid out how each compares price and value wise and then suggested you decide based on that. I can only lay out the math problem for you, but it's entirely up to you to do the calculation. Sorry if you can't add; that's not my problem.

Price of the two (which you have wrong anyway) is completely irrelevant as well. If I wanted to gift the cheaper and keep the more expensive (or vice versa) I would have done that. Literally just asking for opinions of those who may have had both

Did I get overly perturbed about someone commenting on a purchase that had zero consequence to them? Yes

Do I regret it? No

Sometimes people need to just let others enjoy what they enjoy without interjecting nonsense

I'd flip a coin they are both good to me. Was one harder to get than the other? Can you replace the one you give away at a later date so you can ultimately have both? That's how I would look at it.
