[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 1666290, member: 2550"] Very Old Barton..bottled in bond....is NOT in Oklahoma. I saw that my buddy Jason(sourmashmanifesto.com) rated it favorable and it was priced right. I called the maker of VOB..and they don't distribute it ...yet...in Oklahoma. Sooooo, on the Vegas trip in April, guess what I'm looking for...yep, VOB, along with an antique slot machine. If you get a bottle let me know how it was ....they may sell it in Missouri or Arkansas. Don't forget....Knob Creek, Jack Daniels Gentleman Jack,( really smooth..if I remember correctly, twice distilled) and Jack Daniels Single Barrel(finishing my 3rd bottle so far) ***Of course my #1, my love, my go to every Friday...heck, twice a month my favorite liquor store expects me to be there for...George Dickel #12. ***Don't laugh*** You can always mix 7up and Southern Comfort....many a coon hunting night I mixed this and a few times I drank it straight. It'll keep you warm on a cold coon hunting night!!! Cohiba a little side note/FYI:Rye and Canadian whisky Various Canadian whiskies It is a common misconception that Canadian whiskies are primarily made using rye grain.[1] Although many Canadian whiskies are labelled as "rye whisky", the use of rye grain is not dictated by law, and whisky products of all grain types are often generically referred to as (and may legally be labelled as) "rye whisky" in Canada. Under Canadian law, the term "Canadian rye whisky" is simply synonymous with "Canadian whisky",[6] and the primary mash ingredient in most Canadian whisky is corn. In contrast, the U.S. definition of "rye whisky" prevents a low rye content whisky from being labelled "rye" unless it is labelled as a "blended" rye whisky, and approximately 10% of such a "blended rye whisky" must still be from rye.[8] The U.S. also requires that if a whisky contains colouring, flavouring or distillates with 80% or greater alcohol content, this must be acknowledged on the label by including the term "blended" in the description on the label.[8] Canadian law does not have these requirements. Moreover, U.S. law requires at least 20% of the content of a blended whisky to be "straight whisky" rather than neutral spirits or "light" (near-neutral) whisky,[8] which is not required under Canadian law. However, U.S. law permits "blended" whisky to contain up to 80% un-aged grain neutral spirits (with an age statement on the label that refers only to the "straight" part of the blend), while Canadian law requires that all of the spirits in a Canadian whisky be aged for at least three years.
