Bourbon

I'm late to the party but I've found quite a few bottles in the 40 range I'm happy to purchase again. Willett pot still is not one of them. I said what I said.

“Pot still”
 
I was good with pot still when it was $39.99/bottle. Pretty sure it’s either 59.99 or 69.99…and definitely not worth it at that price point.

Just went to the ABC store a couple weeks ago to try to diversify my liquor cabinet some…bought about 15-20 bottles. Pretty sure at this point, my drinker shelf is just gonna become Clyde Mayes and New Riff. I’d honestly put those two against most anything sub-$100.
 
I’ll have to try the Clyde. New Rift didn’t impress me. Was a little harsh I thought. Might be showing my ignorance but Basil Hayden sp? Is my current favorite that I can find on the shelf easily.

New Riff single barrel is more of a true cask strength…somewhere around 58%. Their standard straight is 50%, which is still stronger than most of what you’ll find on the shelf. So it makes sense that it was harsh. Stronger bourbons are kinda like beer in the sense of it being an acquired taste.
 
Thought I’d change up the Woodford selection. This one is nice. Especially for $36
