Re: World of Whiskey

As much good as I have heard about the EC18 I would definitely pass if that is what they are charging. Picking up a new TPS private barrel of 4R OESV this evening.

Re: World of Whiskey

I loved the Stagg Jr we had. I would say to me it was a Bookers with a lesser pronounced profile. Bookers was better too me personally.

It is. I actually like the newer NAS compared to the older AS in side by sides that I have done.

Re: World of Whiskey

What do you think the best Four Roses will be this go round? I havent had a bad bottle of 4R ever. But of the Private Barrels I prefer the OE-- stuff myself. I have had excellent OESO's and excellent OESV's before. Honestly I had a OESK once and for some reason it just didn't suit me. It wasn't bad...

Re: World of Whiskey

Is Stranahans worth a pick up? Have heard mixed things about it. I love it, but then again it is about the best whiskey I've found to pair with fine tobacco, like Peter Stokkebye's. I don't know how it works with "factory-made" cigarettes, but I'd think it's about the same. They use 2 to 4 year bar...

Re: World of Whiskey

Bookers is back to $70 here. Great buy at $49 but I can pass at 70.

Re: World of Whiskey

I also recommend drinking it, but I kind of think the opposite of some others. Drinking one these rare whiskies almost invariably brings me to the conclusions that 1) the "quality" difference between a great but readily available $30-$60 bottle and one of these rare ones isn't that great (if at all...

Re: World of Whiskey

Danno, please let us know what you think of the bonded Beam. I just picked up a few bottles of 1792's full proof release. I've got high hopes after how good the port finish was. I had the Bonded awhile ago and can't recall much about it besides that it wasn't bad. The Double Oak was cracked this ev...

Re: World of Whiskey

In an announcement that should surprise no one, Beam is backing off the Booker's price increase: http://www.fredminnick.com/2017/01/02/beam-suntory-backtracks-bookers-pricing/ I always took it as a way to try to move stock. Booker's doesn't fly off the shelves as it is. Well their supposed price in...

Re: World of Whiskey

Have heard really good things about JB Double Oaked so for $22 I am giving it a fair shake. Figured since I liked the Booker's so much I would go ahead and give Stagg Jr a spin.

Re: World of Whiskey

Bought a Bookers Off Your Rocker this past weekend. Stocked back up on Heaven Hill BIB and Mount Gay Black Barrel. TPS in Cincy was pretty much at a loss for words as to what Beam is doing with Bookers. Never has been a hot seller because it's generally already more expensive then the general market...
