Not my place to answer that question. However, you can always come to my place and drink my shit.

haha nah i understand, it would probably be wasted on me anyway. i know a thing or two about the drink, but most of that stuff is way over my head!

some day, we will get hammered.

Found a 750 ml bottle of Temperance Trader out of Portland, Oregon for $30. Snatched it up. Got in the van, checked the receipt and they had charged me $40. Went back in and and they sent me through no less than three different lines before giving me my money back. Wtf? Will have to find a new liquor store.

 

[dorian gray]

I'm guessing some numbskull put the wrong price on the shelf label. I think they were getting close to arguing about it with me - as I was walking out I heard a voice on dudes walkie-talkie talking about me lol. Anyway, I like this stuff. And it has a little Satanic character on the label. Can't beat that!

 

[NAD]

Bourbon, Satan, a good deal, and you got to piss off some idiots? Definitely go back to that place! Next adventure might be even better.

 

[dorian gray]

I can't go back and read all 70 pages of this thread (although I will anyway). Did someone say Four Roses Single Barrel is good? I just bought some because I feel like someone did say that. Did they? Did someone say that? Goddamit answer me.

 

[ChaosLee]

It's damn good. Ken, Frank, and I will all attest to this

 

[dorian gray]

Thanks!

 

[dorian gray]

This is some good shit. I believe it is my new go-to bourbon

 

[Vittra]

That's my favourite of everything I've encountered, thus far.

I have about a single dram left of it that I haven't touched for 2 months because once I do the dream is dead. It's only been stocked in stores twice in recent memory, that I'm aware of.

 

[dorian gray]

Fuck those fuckers! Move to the US immediately. Although, there is the possibility there won't be any left here either because I will have consumed all of it in typical dorian fashion.

 

[dorian gray]

I destroyed that bottle in a week. I'm in front of a campfire in Nowhere, TN drinking another one right now. I found it for under $30. Great bourbon. New favorite.

Ps: 4G coverage in the middle of the fuckin' sticks ftw (fuck the world)

 

[ChaosLee]

Well played sir. Glad you like it

 

[General Zod]

I've tried the Four Roses, but it wasn't for me. I tend to prefer my bourbons closer to 90 Proof. I simply find they have more flavor. My latest favorite is Widow Jane.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Typically, the higher the proof = less watered down = more flavor. Plus, you can always add water to your desired taste. For this reason, gimme the Cask Strength please & thank you.

 

[dorian gray]

I like bourbon
