The official Whiskey (bourbon) thread.

Picked up a bottle of Willet Estate Rye today. Anxious to try it but I gotta finish the Eagle Rare first.

anybody ever try Troubadour whiskey? I bought it several times and really liked the stuff, but haven't been able to find it in awhile. I guess they don't make it anymore.

Gonna pick this one up for a party on my days off. Have heard nothing but good said about it. I’ve never had a scotch I liked so we will see

It’s a good pour for sure, really smooth and not too strong for someone who is t used to scotch

Why do you have to finish the Eagle Rare first? I generally have 15-25 different bottles of bourbon, rye, or Scotch open at any given time. I like having a little variety when my palate is craving certain flavors.

That being said, I do get some eye rolls form the wife when my pantry shelf is full and pushing 25 different bottles, but she doesn't say much, because she knows I could complain about how many pairs of shoes she has.

Switching it up. Trying to take it easy on the EC18! This one is also very good!

I’ve been looking for this bottle, haven’t had any luck though.

Just met up with Chase This, he’s a great guy and got me my first bottle of Weller 12!

Well I suppose I don’t have too. I’ve read previously that its best to drink a bottle within 90 days for best flavor and less oxidation. I tend to finish one before starting the next mostly because of this, but it may also be an ocd thing. I believe I’ve read the opposite opinion on this thread regarding the time and flavor. I’d be interested to hear more details and opinions on this.

Regarding the wife, I already have a closet full of beer that i’m working my way through. I should probably get that all cleared out and drank before I fill it up with whiskey bottles.

Downtown Houston Specs has it. I10 and bingle specs has it I believe and I’ve seen it at Total Wine before.

Now that sounds like a good time.

Never seen it at any big liquor store. I found this one off the beaten path. The Sweat Wheat is very hard to find.

Right, I can find all the others, just not the Sweet Wheat.

Dang I guess I should have picked it up. I’ve seen it probably 3 times in the last couple months at Total Wine

I’ve been really impressed with that line, especially for the price
