Nah. Had to bypass any new pictures to save on my recent Vegas trip.
Honestly, aiming for BT or Penelope products again but I’m really hoping I get a Penelope Rio or Havana.
Is Havana hard to find? I have seen it around for $100 or so.

Haven’t seen it at any place I normally look at.

Dang, wish I’d have known that about 2 months ago. They were dropping everywhere down here at or just below $100.

A lot of it is. I traded both the Rio and Havana after trying them at a bottle share. Too sweet for me-especially the Rio.

I’d never looked for it, but picked up a bottle this morning on the way home. The Architect bottling.
I’ve got a couple of other ‘new to me’ bourbon’s I haven’t tried that I need to break the seal on, so I’m not sure I touch that one this weekend.

The architects are solid, and they do some interesting things with them sometimes. They had a Crème Brûlée one recently that was pretty good

I got into it last night. Not bad at all.
Noticed on the bottle that Penelope bottles it only, so I’m wondering now who distills it for them? Did some internet digging and everything I found said their whiskies are distilled in Lawrenceburg Indiana, so I’m guessing MGP.
Still, at the price point in my area ($50), it holds its own against most anything else I’ve tried from my closest liquor store.

Another bottle I came home with yesterday was the bottle someone I met at a wedding last week said was a ‘Must have’. Whistle Pig Snout to Tail.
Good, but overpriced. Was expecting a lot more for the cost and the ten minute love fest I had to listen to.

I picked up a bottle of it too. You’re 100% correct, good but overpriced.

Hoping everyone is stocked up on everything BT. Distillery is currently flooded.

I saw that yesterday.
I can't get any of their shit locally, so I don't think it will impact me much. Currently have three unopened bottles and a partial of Weller 12, one unopened and a partial of Antique 107 and a couple Weller Green's, couple bottles of Trace. The decorative bottle of Blanton's is still sitting there as well, but it's not going to get touched, unless I have a visitor with a Blanton's boner.
They either get their shit together, flood or not, or I'm just going to plant my flag somewhere else.

Hit up an incredible store that has fantastic store picks. Got a 10.5 year Old Louisville pick, an 8 year old Louisville Rye, an Old bones 15 year rye (it’s actually 19), a Dark Arts Toasted Mizunara pick, and a Jack Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye at 138.4 from the Coy Hill Warehouse. Pricey afternoon!
