Fantastic. The nose on this is spot on, lovely heat from the whiskey and a nice sweetness from the rum.

My second favorite Balvenie, behind 21 Portwood, the regular Double Wood is great, but the 17 is really lovely.
Good luck with the unpacking!

Love coming home to bourbon mail, even better when it’s Jack Daniel’s 14yr

Had a real expensive October...

I finally landed my white whale bottle - "The Circus". Had it a few times at Delilah's in Chicago and it's always eluded me until now. I also picked up some birth year bottles and a few extra's of favorites. Love the Arran White Stags - especially release 7 - and picked up some more Roseisle from 2023 (much better than the 2024).

And then lastly gotta include some lovely bottles curtesy of Stakem

El Cheapo here with my latest purchase.
If you don't let this rest 10 minutes it'll singe your nose hairs. That said, I had every intent for this to be a high proof mixer but have to sample neat first.
Candy sweet, charred oak, burnt sugar, tobacco. Quick shot of cinnamon and apple on finish.
Great buy for $23, and if it works in cocktails will be a regular.

Yeah, I enjoyed this the one time I purchased it in Indiana. Great value. They now sell it in Michigan, but I haven't had the occasion to pick it up here. Right up there with OGD 114 for bourbon bang for the buck.

On sale for $70, couldn't leave it on the shelf. Sweet, honey, caramel, little bit of oak, bread, bakers spice. An easy smooth pour for when you want a quick kick. Glad to have it in my cabinet.

According to the Financial Times, Japanese brewer Kirin has put Four Roses up for sale for $1 billion. Financial Times cited people familiar with the deal.

If every active member on this site put up $5M, we could do it.

Who's in?

 

[OceanOfMead]

This is because Canada quit buying American Whiskey isn’t it?

I talked to a couple friends, we were able to pool together 37$, we might be a contender to put in an offer.

Count me in for another $37. Double the bid!

Anyone heard from FATC1TY ? Seems like he disappeared a while back. Hope he's doing okay.
