These sold out pretty quickly in my area On the initial go around. Then they sat. Once word got out there was 17 year juice in the blend for this demand picked back up again. I got the last two bottles from small Mom pop liquor stores by me. I hope to get the same tasting notes and enjoyment.

I got shanked by that Shenks, bought 2 of them. Refused to buy OGD 16 and it was just 150. Don’t know the others but this makes it easier to miss out on the FOMO on the HH 18.

OGD16 is bad, really bad. I spent $350 for a Jim Beam dinner and tasting with the Noe family. I could have bought anything I tried that night, little book, the reserves, KC18, or OGD16. I walked out with a signed OGD114, two signatures, and a video of me telling Fred and Freddie “this is the best product you have in the shop, should have left OGD at barrel proof or 114.”

Larrikin was on of my favorite stops on my Kentucky vacation. The Bottled in Bond has become one of my faves in 2024. Even though it is Barton juice there are notes in it that remind me of Turkey. The 8 years of aging have given it a depth while keeping that cherry note. If the price came down a little I would easily recommend Larrikin as a daily sipper.
