    While the middle one hasn't been opened i got a taste from the shop and man oh MAN all three are absolute winners.

    And they had a couple EW single barrels left on the shelf so i snagged a backup for the one I already had. For those who havent heard it will be a KY only release moving forward so if you arent near Bardstown or Louisville and your local still has some, recommend bigly that you pick one up. Unbelievable bottle at 30 bucks.

    I have to say, I was really impressed with the smoothness and flavor of the EC. Like you said, an incredible value for a great bourbon

    It really is, these Private Barrel picks are absolutely mind-bending to be honest. Granted they're not Willett purple tops....but they also aren't priced anything LIKE a purple top either. ;)

    I grabbed a bottle of Buffalo Trace Kosher Rye the other day. Not bad for $40. I'd never pay what it goes for on the secondary market though.

    Not rare or anything but a neat experiment by the local boys (and by local the master distiller and I used to work together he's unbelievably smart). Can't go to the release this weekend with other plans but preordered and picking up a bottle next week.

    What did you think of the Orphan Barrel and the Uncle Nearest 1884?

    I haven't opened the OB yet. The UN is fantastic. It is now officially my go to $50 whiskey as long as I can find it. It's destined to be one of those bottles that every wants.

    The UN 1884 is in virtually every store in my area. Do you know if the mash bill is rye or wheat based for the second ingredient? I tend to like rye based bourbons much more than wheaters.

    I honestly haven't investigated it that deeply. Although it's officially neither a rye or a bourbon, it has the characteristics of a non wheated bourbon to my palette. I'm sure there are expert reviews of it available on the web which are going to be more qualified than mine. For now it's easy enough to find and it's not that expensive, so grab a bottle ... I'd be interested in your thoughts on it.
