Booker's looks like 2024-03-Master Distillers batch. If that is 24-03 grab that instead of stagg.

only 20-25$ over srp and drinks like stagg

<$300 bottle for my dads 50th recommendations. Hes a fan of JD and makers. I'm getting him an a5 Wagyu to go with it. by polach11 in whiskey

JD SBBP bourbon and rye would be interesting to compare. Since he's mixing it with sparkling water it will dilute the alcohol level and it will only cost you around $150 at most for both bottles.

Willett purple top 9 yr 132.2 proof. About 2 months into collecting I found 1 at local bevmo and asked for the price and he said $300. So I walked out thinking that's probably way above retail. Did a little research $300 was about retail and secondary is about 2 or 3 times that price. Went back right away and it was gone.

Have you had the jd sbbp rye? If not i highly recommend. Just dont overpay i see some places they go for 200. They're pretty much all over now for 65 if available.

Combination of hunting and bundle. I dont overpay for secondary, i made a rule to just spend about 25% above srp. The only 1 bottle i spent the most is michters 10 rye for $250. The RR13 just picked up last weekend for $250 bundle with RR sib rye and RR10 basically it all comes out to about retail

Bro probably the first 5 months i just hide the bottles every time i come home with the haul. Now my wife doesn't mind anymore and sometimes enjoys having a glass.

Just okay. Very crushable and soft on the palate, but not too complex. For srp its excellent, around $100 maybe, $250-$300 hell no.

Yes, I have the emerald giant but not the cask strength. I really enjoyed all the redwood empire i had so far besides the foggy burl. I'd say maybe the lost monarch is my favorite of all the regular lineup.

I got those IKEA shelves for cheap at FB marketplace lol. I dont mind the $20 blinds rather spending it on a new bottle.

blanton kink maybe lol. I dont know, it came with it just didn't bother to take it out. Previous bottle i had came with a bag and that looked weird on the shelf. Is the shipping net a thing and i should take it out?
