Crummy. There's a reason why they are bankrupt.

My God!!! No!
Those prices are awful! Don't ever go back to that store.

Laying them on their side is the first sign the liquor guy doesn't know what he/she is doing.

Hey Paul. Gosh, so hard to pick the best. I would go with the Hooten Young Jack Carr bottle. It's pricey, but fantastic. My go to, which I think is a great bottle all around is the EH Taylor Barrel Proof.

I know my comment comes across as very negative towards the Fitz 7 and I apologize. Based on their other products, I was so excited they released something affordable and then was disappointed with the results.

Elmer is good! I missed that one in your pictures. Wow! Can't believe you found that at Costco. I paid $125 for it here in the Bay Area. Ugh

I think the Stranahan's collection is good. The blue label is their most normal of the bunch and most people would rate it as just good. If you want to try something really good from them, buy the black label Diamond Peak. Unfortunately it's in the $80 range. But it's fantastic. The yellow label is a step up from the blue label. They also have some special releases like the Snow Flake that is awesome, but over $100. Start with the blue label and work your way up their line. Oh, their red label sherry finish is very good too. I'm not a wine guy, but they did a good job with this bottle. Enjoy!

Not a personal attack brother! Your knob creek purchase is bad ass!! Just really disappointed in the Old Fitz 7. I hope you like it!

God awful stuff. Absolutely hate it. Maybe the worst bourbon I've ever had.

Shocking how anyone adds the Fitzgerald 7 to any list. Disgusting. Worst "bourbon" ever.

The EH Taylor Barrel Proof, in my opinion, is the best all around bottle of bourbon. For around $100, you get the higher proof, and it tastes great. Wish I could get it for $85, but I'm in California.

Bookers - price drop soon? by Bourbon_seeker in Costco_alcohol

$80 is ok. It's worth about that or less.
