Picked up a bottle of Knob Creek twice barreled for $32 at Costco. Usually it’s around $46 for a decent mid level.
I probably banged your mom.

Joined a Whiskey Club at a local restaurant/bar. $65/month gets me 1 complimentary drink per day, yes per day and you can do that every day of the month. It also gets me a bottle of whiskey each month. This months is Angel's Envy.
My girl got me Octomore 11.1 and Ledaig 21 yo whisky's for Christmas along with Tears of Llarona Tequila which freaking delicious!

Killed my first bottle of scotch despite having a handful for at least a year. Uigeadail was something special though, my first Islay that I really enjoyed.

Picked up my 1st bottle in the Whiskey Club. As previously stated it was Angel's Envy and they gave me 2 glasses. My free drink that day was an Old Fashioned with Wild Turkey 101 Rye and then a pour of Balvenie TUN 1509. That Balvenie was really good.

I just picked up a bottle of WT 101. Can't decide whether I like this or Buffalo Trace more.
Gonna pick up a bottle of Woodford Reserve or Eagle Rare after I finish off this bottle I think, unless one of you *******s can recommend me something better (willing to spend 30ish max)

Edit...I'm not a fan of Eagle Rare. The last few times I had a pour it was way to sweet on the finish. I gave my bottle to my neighbor.

They have meetups with Covid still? May look into this. Loved the food and atmosphere as well

I go through bursts where I'll buy 3 bottles one week, and not buy anything for a month and a half lol.

Food is good as well and the bartenders are friendly and very helpful. I'll probably be there tonight at the bar for my drink and some dinner.Have been here before and the whiskey room looked intimidating. Didn’t know it was this affordable.

Congrats on the Bugout, I love mine. I got some custom scales for it since the factory ones suck, silver twill carbon fiber with ctek inlays.

One of the reasons I picked the Bugout over the Para3, Terminus XR, Elementum S35VN, and others is because of the endless array of scales available for it. Yours looks fkn sick!

I picked up a bottle of regular Elijah Craig small batch tonight, and wouldn't you know it, the price went up from $27.49 to $31.99 or $34.23 out the door.
Who are those rat bastards at Heaven Hill trying to compete with at that price? Buffalo Trace and Makers are still below $26 here in Central Ohio. At that inflated price I may as well get the 10-year Russell's Reserve white label.
I wonder if Heaven Hill's other big ones jumped in price too? Larceny, Evan Williams, etc?

Is this one worth getting?
I've never heard of it, but my local Costco has it.
