If you live in an ABC state, there's going to be state single barrel picks for Baker's available. If reception goes well, they will extend this pick program to the rest of the country.
Also, since...
Yes, very fun. I wish liquor stores would sell Boston rounds at the counter or something. Maybe that's already a thing and I just haven't seen it yet.
Yeah, we're a bit spoiled for Smoke Wagon out...
Yeah, Hancock's is definitely more about the label than it is about the liquid. I think of it as a good exercise in being familiar with Buffalo Trace's profile more than anything else. I like that...
Here is a link to a compilation of post-event content on Greg Ellifritz's blog, which includes some of the stuff already mentioned in this thread.

Oh, I'm definitely doing it, I'm just wondering if anyone who'd done this kind of thing before had any pointers as far as whether to have a warmup/control pour beforehand, whether to ignore everyone...
Just found out I've been selected to join a tasting for a pick. I'd like some advice.
If that is the case, I'll have to see if I can't go.
Bruce Russell has said his father has a preference from warehouse G.
Bo Garrett, lead guitarist for Montgomery Gentry and Wild Turkey rep, posted a map not too long ago on his social media.

RancidSumo , excellent choices.
Rare Breed is pretty solid. If you look up David Jennings, aka Rare Bird 101, he's a Wild Turkey superfan who has some pretty deep dives into looking up bottle codes to see where in the distillery...
A. Smith Bowman is local to your state. They use contract distillate from Buffalo Trace and I think their Bowman Brothers small batch (90 proof) would be right up your alley.
Anyone tried FAE-01 yet? How is it compared to last year's Maker's release?

Saw the first Booker's release of this year for 65 on the shelf. Glad to see they've brought it back down to its original price, but I still think Knob Creek picks are the best pour from Beam at the...
Great, this is just what I need.

That there JD barrel proof winter rye is really something quite unique. I do hope they make it a regular annual release.
And on a related note, today I saw a couple bottles of Doc Swinson's 15 years, batch 11 on the shelf. At $170 I decided against it, as I just can't shake the feeling they're probably Beam, Barton, or...
After two months of airing out, I still think Knob Creek 12s and 15s are not as good as even the single barrel store picks that are only 9 years, though I hear older ones are not uncommon. I missed...
If any of you guys fancied Evan Williams 1783 for your bottom-shelf booty, the proof is going from 86 to 90. Whatever the batch size was before, it is now going to be less than 300 barrels aged 6-8...
That is a big part of the reason why I said I think more folks really should attend good force-on-force classes.
Given that H&C Distilling is based out of Nevada, I guess that makes sense.
Well, next time you're out west, I can certainly square you away with a bottle.
