Great deal on the Four Roses, and I got the same deal on the SW uncut at Costco so that’s a great price. My brother picked up a Widow Jane 10 yr for me in a total wine near St. Louis for $52, so excited because they go for $80 near me. Cheers!

That was an absolute steal on the Four Roses. I've never heard of them being less than $100. When you go to the Cox Creek location of Four Roses they are $100. The Kentucky Owl is supposed to be excellent but it was overpriced at $170, their online store has it for $133.99. I would have grabbed the Michtners, That bottle is rarely seen below $200. Great find again on the Four Roses.

Damn Jim Beam SiB for $25 is excellent and it is a decent pour that is better than most sub 30 bottles. The Calumet 16 is very good. Those Four Roses SiB picks were 42 for years now fluctuates between 44-52. Never found a Sam Houston. Nice score. Michter’s 10yr Rye is a helluva score.

Would have had a hard time leaving that Single Barrel Peerless on the shelf. Frugal typically nails it with their picks. $65 is a great price on the Smoke Wagon UCUF. Dude, you told me about those $49 Four Roses barrel strength, but seeing is believing! LOL! And you made it back to LP for the Sam Houston's! Can't wait to hear what you think about that one.

Dude the Sam Houston 😮‍💨 SO GOOD

[@apeekintime]

That Michters 10 Yr Rye would have been in my hands immediately. $199 is MSRP and that just doesn't happen. Even Total Wine throws those in the allocation raffles (but I believe you can randomly get them at the distillery in bundles).

Hey! Great video per usual. Yeah QUINN and RUA are made at the same distillery. The RUA is actually pretty good, the Quinn, I'm safe to say, I am not a fan. I bought a bottle of it at the distillery because seems like a good cheap mixer, I regret not getting an RUA instead though just paying the extra money. I got mine from the distillery which is in Charlotte on a Distillery/Brewery run with the wife. If you ever want to know what is worth getting they do tours for $15 with a tasting at the end of 4 whiskeys and a vodka.

Kentucky Owl is a tough one... The Takumi Edition (red label) fantastic! Worth $125 for it... The Confiscated I wouldn't pay more than $100. The Maighstir Edition (blue label) I tried at the KY Bourbon Festival and its good but $180 is a lot. I'd probably pay $140 myself... If you want to try KY Owl on the cheap the Wiseman is usually $50 or less and it pretty good.

@@Bourbon_Hunter Well not surprisgly its like if Bourbon and Scotch had a kid.
