LUCKY YOU! It is excellent. At what used to be $30/bottle it was very unassuming, but with Elmer's death in 2013 it has become rarer & rarer and now the price has skyrocketed just like Pappy Van Winkle, I can't find it online for less than $300 (which it's not worth IMO unless you're a collector who has cash to spare).

Enjoy it! I have been trying to find a bottle of that for months!

My favorite whiskey. There is only one store I know in East Central Florida that can get it. He gets 4 bottles a year. He puts two aside for me.

Wonder how good it would be aged for a little bit in one of those barrels. Given that any thought?

I’m not going to do that with this bourbon. It’s impossible to find in Virginia (in fact, I have never seen it). My client travels a lot, so he picked it up somewhere out of state.

I used to be able to get it in Atlanta, but that was a few years ago. Haven't seen it anywhere in awhile.
