I've got a bottle of Blanton's...
20 years ago my mom was in Kentucky helping with their abandon mine reclamation program (she was the director of the Oklahoma Abandoned Mine Program at the time). As an appreciation gift, they gave out several of these to those from Oklahoma. I was 18 at the time and she told me to save it for my 21st birthday. Well, things came and went and I've never opened it. I've always cherished this little bottle and but have still never had a sip of Blanton's in my life. I've spent the last 5 years trying to get a bottle for myself. We are going to Kentucky this year to visit the in-laws and I'm going to contact Blanton's to see if I can see the operation and share the story.

I like bourbon and especially Mr. Booker. I never mix or put bourbon (or any brown liquor) on ice because I do enjoy the taste. That said there are time when I am not in the mood for bourbon and will go to an Irish whiskey. May try the Jameson "Caskmates" this week.
i'm a big fan of the stout cask Jameson. Had some last night, in fact.
We have a bourbon we really like called beer barrel bourbon, which is done in a similar fashion. Bourbon is added back after the beer and it really helps smooth out the taste.
as of late, though, i've been more into the jameson than the bourbon.
George and Evan good friends to have

Our current favorite is Weller’s in the half gallon jug.
This my friends is most likely a “bourbon scammer”. They are as thick as flies on a pile of sh** right now. You can’t swing a dead hooker without hitting a bourbon scammer.
Blanton’s is available locally, if you look hard enough. I have 1 empty, 1 half full, and 1 unopened bottle in my bar right now. They were all purchased in the metro.
I also have a bottle of 15 yo Pappy in the gun safe. I paid an exorbitant amount of money for it about 3-4 years ago, and last time I looked the price had more than doubled. I have an empty bottle of pappy in my bar as well. It’s really good, but unless I stumble across it somewhere, which is highly unlikely, I won’t purchase another one.
There are good bourbons available, that don’t cost an arm & a leg. What’s a “good bourbon” you ask? Everyone has their own measuring stick. Mine is; if I can get really liquored up on it and not have even a little bit of a hangover in the morning, that is a quality booze. I don’t always get really liquored up, but that’s the measure for me. Those are available, some of them for less than 80 bucks, U.S., and locally.
Good luck in your searches. Everyone that drinks should be allowed to enjoy a really fine glass of bourbon on the regular. Is this a great country or what?
I checked it out, and it definitely checks out, it’s a scammer. Do not buy anything from that jackwagon. Scumbags.
Mods, can you kill the links in that asshat’s posts, please?
