    Lol just as I finished typing that I looked again and they just got 6 in stock, raised the price to $106 though
    Wow, $106 is a bit of a mark up. We get it for $70 in Ontario LCBO

    How’s the old forest bday burobon?
    i put my name in for a chance of buying a bottle. Just not sure it’s worth the $150 Canadian.

    Have you tried it? And is it worth the $150 CAN.

    I thoroughly enjoy the Birthday Bourbon.  I haven't had the 2018...yet.  2016 and 2017 are exceptional; unfortunately, I recently floated my 2012 and 2015 Birthday Bourbons...  Retail is $100 USD, so the $150 CAD is not all that bad.  I would buy it all day at that price.  Plus, the bottle is pretty fuckin' cool.


    ...So much talk it makes no sense at all...

    This is an excellent bourbon.  I had written it off as gimmicky, but they reached back and slapped me across the face with a senses-pleasing gem.

    ^ Very nice. I’m not familiar. Why do you say gimmicky? By the way, I was surprised to see Smooth Ambler on the shelves of my local today. Contradiction and one other (I don’t recall).

    Message sent...  Regarding the gimmickiness...they have a “slogan” that states “made by ghosts”.  It just feels like an attempt to capitalize on the bourbon craze.  It’s not.  It’s damn good juice.

    If anyone wants to try 2014 Birthday Bourbon.  I’ll probably trade a shot for a sticker I need lol.  I hated it.

    Was able to try Pappy 23 the other day in a special tasting event. Delicious. I was hoping I wouldn’t like it

    The PA BTAC lottery winner emails are coming in. I won a bottle of the George T. Stagg for a second year in a row. Any other winners?

    ^ Nice haul! Were they unable/unwilling to get you the George T Stagg and William Larue Weller? 

    I grabbed an Elijah Craig Barrel Proof last night. Was very pleased with that. The big ones haven’t hit yet where I’m at.
