So tempting to comment...but...no...
There's nothing civil about this war.
Man, that uncut Smoke Wagon is no joke wagon. I'm glad we can get it here for $65. I think it is better than MGP's own Remus Reserve II through IV. Despite the batches usually being in the 110s, I feel like I could drink it neat and not just sip it neat.
Nearest TotalWine that has the Uncut is in Nevada.

Given that H&C Distilling is based out of Nevada, I guess that makes sense.Nearest TotalWine that has the Uncut is in Nevada.
Well, next time you're out west, I can certainly square you away with a bottle.
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 years.

Picked up a Bardstown Fusion #3 yesterday.
https://www.bardstownbourbon.com/brands/Summary: Liked it a lot, but, there are things I like better that are priced less ($55)TASTING NOTES
The fusion between youthful and aged bourbon becomes immediately apparent on the nose. Green apple with honey join roasted nuts and caramel. These disparate profiles are unified on the first sip, coating the palate and finishing with extraordinary balance.
Little bit of ice chips to open it up. Well balanced, good viscosity. Not as much caramel as I like but, still there.
I like what they're doing here though.... I need to find a good Bourbon Bar nearby, where I can try things without committing to a bottle.
Would very much like to try the Discovery #4

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 out on the cask strength version of the 12 year though, so my bias might be due to the picks being 120 proof and the 12s and 15s being 100.
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 Heaven Hill picks in disguise.
And I should have it here Friday.
