So my brother in law …won’t be impressed…lol

Probably won’t stop drinking Woodford for it. But you never know. I had a friend who only drank Lord Calvert, could afford much better yet he said he just liked it better

What’s your go-to Bourbon ? My go-to Scotch so far is this one…and I’ve tried a few over the years

I had inside help …lol ..I have a friend that works at a State Liquor Store….and she sent me a Message on Facebook….saying they just got a random case ..late in the day. I was there when the doors opened the next morning. They don’t even put it on the shelves…you have to ask a clerk for it.

I love that offering of Scotch, working on my last f a 12 year Macallan, next the 18. But my go to is Knob Creek Single barrel, 120 proof I buy it buy the case when available. Have some that is around 17 years now, have gifted some to my good friend Dave, he likes it too

There's nothing imo like a cask strength or overproof bourbon! Not knocking the scotch now..the macallan is great stuff. The 18 is exceptional. But they lost me when it hit 175 a fifth. Up to +/-$250. Too rich for my blood.

My girlfriend broke up with my when I was about 16, I was so upset i got half a bottle of Haig whiskey and drank the lot.

I got so paralytic and ill, I honestly thought i was going to die but couldn't stand up to get to the phone.

That was my first experience of Whisky and I can't even look at the stuff since.

Sounds like you didn't take the sage advice about getting back on the horse you fell off of! Lol.
