Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Libertas: Nice with those Alberta Premium's. How is the High West mixer? The Buffalo Trace one is pretty decent, haven't tried the High West one. I like it better than the BT, wish it had been on sale as well. Though at 86 proof it's still a decent value, mid 40s. |

 JD, Charleston, and Starlight ryes we're bought at their respective distilleries. Tour at Jack Daniels was better than I thought it would be. Red Eye is a blend of rye and coffee, the High West was aged in peated scotch. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By justsayin: Mmmmm, Handy......... Had a pour once, nice. Was a good day when I found that. The owner pulled out the THH and a bottle of Pappy 12 year. He said I could have both if I wanted. I said no and took the Handy. Picture actually doesn't show a bunch of the bottles very well. There is 5 bottles of Bookers, a Wellers 107, a couple EC 18, a couple WP 15, a bunch of different Old Elk, 4 bottles of 1792, a couple Yellowstone 2020LE, a healthy supply of different ryes and Scotches. 2021 hasn't been near as good as 2020. |

That is the reason 107 became allocated several years ago , a reporter here in Charlotte wrote about the same mash bill and how the factory decided which one got which label, and overnight the shelves went bare. Another favorite of mine is Weller Special Reserve however since NC is a stae regulated liquor state it is not available for some reason anywhere.
