I'm not sure. I first noticed it not long after discovering Buffalo Trace. It gave me terrible neck aches so I stopped buying it. I don't remember it ever happening with McKenna BIB or Woodford Reserve. Definitely a problem with Russel Reserve. I don't remember if it's an issue with Elijah Craig.
That's definitely something to explore.

Almost forgot to post about the Old Ezra 7 Barrel Strength that Bourbon Buddy brought by on Saturday.
After 4+ weeks of zero visitors, we enjoyed a few hours on the back porch at an appropriate distance. WifeGBiv stuck with the Sauvignon.
117 proof comes in a bit hot, but, I like a bit of ice, so, one cube was just right. Definitely a bit oaky, not quite Knob Creek oaky though. Medium amount of vanilla and a bit of sugar. Enjoyed it greatly. Looking it the cabinet, the only Bourbon under 100 proof is a handle of Buffalo Trace. I've definitely been moving up the proof scale lately.
If you can find it at a fair price (BB picked it up a Spec's for $42), don't pass it up.

I received an early retirement gift today from a locally retired LEO. This is fairly hard to get in my area.
