@Jett129 what bourbon are you enjoying now?
All my money go to IH shirts and jackets, I really enjoy this: $20 before tax for 1 litter of 100 proof

Thanks to some of this thread's more adept influencers ( @Jett129 @mclaincausey @sabergirl ), I'm going to be taking my love of agave more seriously…..

I didn’t know Banhez has an arroqueño! Their Espadin is a great one for a sub $40 bottle.
I take mine near usually but sometimes I’ll make a plate of orange wedges with sal de gusano sprinkled on it for between sips.

when I stopped drinking lite beer sold big, Heineken was exotic and Chivas was top shelf.
Now the world is filled with Japanese single malt whiskey aged in old port barrels and theres more kinds of beer than you can shake a stick at .

I didn't know about the arroqueno, either. When looking for a value bottle, it came down to 2, the Siete Misterios Doba-Yej(espadin), or the Banhez Espadin. After choosing the Siete, I dug a little deeper into their other offerings, and came across their arrequeno. The flavor profile seemed right up my alley. So, I went looking for it. I found a local shop, an amalgamation of bar/liquor store/tasting room. They didn't have it. But, they did have 1 bottle of the Banhez, that they ordered for another customer, 3 months ago, and had not been picked up. Having a little knowledge of the brand already, I gladly took it off their hands. I'm glad I found the shop, too. Very cool people, and very receptive to acquiring products they may not have currently. Good thing, because I foresee a good Tobala in my future…

@Jett129 Christmas season and Santa saw your wish and told me to PM you later.

Man, it's been a good week. Black Friday, I went to one of my favorite shops, in hopes of obtaining a limited release, or allocated bourbon. First come/first served/one bottle limit were the rules. Of course, a line had formed. I was fortunate enough to get the last bottle of Knob 18. As a bonus, everyone present was given a raffle ticket to win the rights to one of three additional bottles. #winning…..
@Jett129 , can I assume you'll be drinking this one neat, as well ?

@Jett129 it smells (and tastes) amazing. Lots of honey, caramel, spices and dried fruits on the nose and palate. Perfect for this time of year.
I hope you have something good to hand for the holidays!
Dude,I’ll be right over. Having Maple Old Fashions made with a limited Edition Makers Mark bourbon and Maple Syrup that’s been aged in 23 Year old Pappy Vanwinkle bourbon barrels. Really quite good!
