Whisk(e)y

If I'm going to do Wheated Whiskey might as well go here.....

I will always prefer my Whiskey or Whisky without ice... Just personal preference... Great in mixed drinks but just dulls flavor IMO...

Haven’t bought whiskey in a while, but my local had EHT Barrel Proof today for $150 and I debated. I feel like that’s a good deal? Haven’t seen it here in ages….

It's not a bad deal if you can afford it. I bought the only one I've seen for $115 ish, but I really like the whiskey inside, so I'd probably pull that trigger again for a slight premium.

Had a pour of GTS at dinner tonight. $50 for 1.5 oz. Is that bad? Excellent.

This is delicious, but I think a bit pricey for Heaven Hill's BiB offerings. Is a wheater really worth an extra $30 over the HH BiB bourbon with the same age statement?

I guess the market will decide.

I was happy to find a bottle after months of it selling out immediately in my local area. I will happily finish this bottle, but probably won't seek it out again at this price point.

Definitely would buy a Rare Breed of HH BiB around $50 over this at $70.

Howdy! Hadn’t really been buying much out there these days, but came across this while grabbing some forteleza from my “honey hole” store.

Batch 2 is good stuff, not sure this one wows me like batch 1 but maybe that’s just expectations. Not as sweet or fruity, and does have a touch of the banana that usually gets out with some age on it.

Pretty solid price. It’s usually around 85-125 here for a 2 oz pour.


I paid $80 for a 2016 WLW pour out your way, and wasn’t mad about it.

King of Kentucky Small Batch #2



Chose to pay the pour price to try in case a bottle tempts me at $250. Nose is warm and rich but pretty hot. Dark fruits, spice, Carmel and charred oak. It's tasty, but, and I seem to be in the minority, I think OF 1924 is as good for half the price.

Worth the try, glad I could try before a buy.

I agree, tasty, but not at all worth $250 for me.
