Hard Drinkers, Lets Drink Hard (Spirits, Liquors and Cocktails)
-
Black Friday is a special day at my favorite local shop. They drop a number of harder to find bottles. Mind you, in my state, many things are hard to find. First come, first served, one bottle limit. But, you can get back in line to grab another. Here's today's haul...
The Booker's is this year's 3rd release, the Mighty Fine batch.
As a side note, each bottle came with a raffle ticket for a bottle of Stagg. Drawing is later today.
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

@scooter nice! Good luck on the Stagg, been waiting a long time to get one of those

@mclaincausey @Jett129 @WhiskeySandwich was looking for McKenna and found sazarac rye for 39.99, is that a good price?
Now, I have an IRONHEART!!
-
@TinMan Sazerac rye is really good but regular price for that is about 30 or 32 bucks. I’ve have great luck finding it around here for that price. I’d say it’s worth 40, but right now I wouldn’t. Depends how rare it is where you are
-
They had a whole case and a have seen it else where. I will hold and price shop. Thank you! @Jett129 @WhiskeySandwich

Yesterday's purchase:
Highly recommended to all of Whiskey lovers
As a big Teeling fan, I had to put my hands on this one to increase my collection

@scooter Really like the E.C. Toasted Barrel,have heard nothing but great things about the Knob Creek 12 and await your review on The Bookers. Speaking of reviews...Have you tried the Jeffersons/Humidity?
This EC Toasted is a limited release, for the Ryder Cup, and is said to have a different flavor profile than the regular Toasted. The barrels were sourced from Europe, which apparently makes a substantial difference. I'll still be on the lookout for a standard release. I, too, have heard nothing but good about KC12. I have so many bottles, now. Who knows when I'll get to the Booker's. That review may take awhile...
As far as reviews go, since the beginning of November, I have opened 7 new bottles(5 bourbons, 2 ryes), and have had an oz., or two, of each. The Jefferson's Tropics is probably the one I was most impressed with. The nose has hints of cherry, cinnamon, clove, and caramel. Palate hits with the cherry and cinnamon, along with toffee and vanilla. I'd definitely buy it, again...
