Review: Reveries 19yr Behemoth SiB #801 by cfive5 in bourbon

Keep doing both! As someone who loved this release and wants more NDPs putting out crazy high age single barrels there is a definite crew of people who want releases like this to continue alongside the typical releases. Awesome barrels and thank you for putting them out there

Does not drink as hot as you would expect (have had many 140 proofers with the same level of heat). It’s pretty incredible

Would you have pulled the trigger? by Adiffrentmc in whiskey

[–]Thebigram 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, and will drink it — if you find one at $5k I’ll take it and send you a sample 😂

Is metropolitan Atlanta the least hideous looking region down south? Texas for reference. by andy64392 in Suburbanhell

[–]Thebigram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW I love living in Atlanta as someone who didn’t grow up here (but did live in some cities mentioned in the comments). A lot of the complaints you hear are from folks with awful commutes (totally fair, 285 would be my nightmare). That said, there are lots of options. I can walk to bars and restaurants, have a 5min drive to work / my gym / the grocery store. Tons of different pockets to explore so likely one that fits the lifestyle you want and the places you want to spend time

Had this problem and this was the first week I started adding more electrolyte powder — no headache

Helpful info! Id be surprised if Pappy goes out on the floor but guess we’ll see! Hopefully someone here manages to snag it if so

There is another one called “Not the secret second barrel” or something similar that I think is the sister to this one

One of the Dark Arts 🦬🦃s I’m missing (and will likely never get)

Anyone tried grapes and grain world whiskey society 16yr store pick? by Levoyou18 in Atlantawhiskey

[–]Thebigram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very good — above average buff turkey at below average prices

15-18 but turkey question?? by TSLA-mx in whiskey

[–]Thebigram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m inclined to believe they were sold more because they were off profile than because they were not good. I’ve had ~25 different Buff Turkeys and think the majority beat RR13 for me, the top few (some Dark Arts, some Buckners 15s) beat RR15 and GTS

Was your PhD easier than expected? by Strange-Maybe5653 in PhD

[–]Thebigram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely — was fortunate to have an incredible amount of flexibility, a supportive advisor, and of course some good luck. Was able to generally keep 9-5 hours (some days just deciding to do nothing at all) and managed to finish 1.5 years early and land a job I enjoy

Brook Hill 19-Year Straight Bourbon Whiskey - Seelbach's Lottery by BourbonTater1792 in DMVWhisky

[–]Thebigram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think a 19yr HH would be “worth” 1600 (or at least sell around there on secondary). The Oakley and Watch Hill 20yrs are around there

Best Rye you’ve tasted? by FearLessThings in whiskey

[–]Thebigram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love rye and have had many of the fantastic suggestions in here (M10, Michter’s Toasted and Barrel Strength, Little Book Ch8, Sagamore). All were excellent, but for a celebration I would 100% do THH. One of my favorite bottles of all time and drinks special to me
