I've got #1 & 2 on your list, but honestly the K.Luke doesn't rank in my top 5 this year. Maybe it's opened up for me? Guess I need to give it another try. Cheers from Selma, AL, home to one of your favorite Orioles.

Dave, we didn't get the Overholt 11 year, and to us, the Sagamore 7-Year BIB is better than the Sagamore 9 year. Have you had the Sagamore 7-Year BIB?
@GLENBECKHAM3 сағат бұрын
@ Todd are you getting me back for calling you Andy when I first joined the patreon 😂…. The 7 yr hasnt made its way to California yet. If its better than the 9 year im getting two of them!! 😂. As for the old overholt 11. Get a bottle if you see it. Imho it slaps the k luke toasted rye

Sugar Kitty we are glad one of our Patreons mentioned that glorious 9 year Corbin Cash Merced Rye Single Barrel. It was such a special barrel but we decided not to include any SB in our best of lists.

The most surprising brand in general for me this year was Rare Character. Literally everything I’ve tasted from them this year has been from great to insane.
@2TEN9022 сағат бұрын
Can't argue with the quality. I think their prices though are causing some to pass. Getting a bit crazy.
@kylewipert1122 сағат бұрын
@ I would generally agree! Though I’ve seen their ages in the single barrels go up with the prices staying the same around me so there’s at least better value. The LEs from them are another story but those are all unicorns so it is what it is on that end.

And my buddy brought me a bottle of James E Pepper Decanter (which isn’t available in Oregon) from KY. First time having it and it was incredible! Both were awesome and the Pepper Barrel Strength made arguable the best Old Fashioned I’ve ever made. Cheers to you and yours for a Happy New Year!
