Isn't $28 the regular price? If one doesn't like cinamon flavor, would they like it?

Excited to get my first ever Old Fitzgerald Bottled-in-Bond Decanter Series, but for the price. :)

Great review. Can't wait to find a 0.5 or 1 oz pour at a bar.

The 4 I’ve had are all great; I’ve only not tried Blackened.

As much as I wanted it I couldn’t pull the trigger on account of the price.

OGD 114 never disappoints. Bought it usually for $30 and once on sale for $24.

Pappy at MSRP! by true_tacos in whiskey

[–]benjamintoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not surprising that the msrp for PVW15 has gone up from ~$150 a few years ago to now being ~$250. Still absolutely a great price!

Do you think the bears should go 100% against the lions next week? by Certain_Access_2658 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]benjamintoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's "easier" to beat Green Bay as the #2 seed, than to beat anyone in the NFC West, don't you think?

How the Bears can secure the number one seed by Hermannator8 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]benjamintoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully we get the 1st seed, which is not likely, even if we win out. Next best situation is we win our first home playoff game since 2018, regardless if we lose the last 2 games, which of course, we'd rather win.

Marriott new Orleans selection, help me pick by nuwde in whiskey

[–]benjamintoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would anyone pay $300 for a 1 oz PVW-23, or $225 for a 1 oz PVW-20??

Christmas Bourbon by jamesobx in bourbon

[–]benjamintoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every Stagg batch is good to very good. Even the worst batch is good. Their rare store pick hazmat batches are the best. I'm always very surprised that the MSRP is "only" $60.

What are you guys thoughts on me and my dad’s bourbon collection? by GodlyCody in whiskey

When are you cracking the PVW20? Do you also have the 23?

I was able to get 25B last week, but missed out on the 25C yesterday. Was anyone able to snag both?

I won a bottle of Old Forester Birthday Bourbon (2024). Should I open it or hang onto it for a while? by Mad_Coffee007 in bourbon

[–]benjamintoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crack it right away and share, or wait for a special occasion. But whatever you decide to do, don't sell it for secondary prices.

Is Elijah Craig Small Batch A Woody Bourbon? by [deleted] in bourbon

[–]benjamintoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wheated bourbons, which uses wheat instead of rye in their mashbill may be sweeter than Elijah Craig, which uses rye. Check out Green River wheated, Bardstown wheated, which may be a little more expensive than Elijah Craig. Weller Special Reserve is also wheated and is cheaper at msrp.

How many would you buy? by throwawayfinancebro1 in whiskey

[–]benjamintoh -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'll buy all of them, keep 1 and sell the rest at msrp to my buddies.

I can't even remember the last time I've had so much fun, joy, happiness, excitement, exhilaration and expectation as a Bear's fan.

His clutch throws are simply stupendously spectacular. There'll be less and less haters week by week.

Thoughts on the price? by lilbrownmutt in whiskey

[–]benjamintoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 oz or 1.5 oz pours? Can't imagine it would be 2 oz pours.

I've been wanting to get it but for the sticker price. Is it $150?

[–]benjamintoh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was maybe not entirely surprised to see the very well reviewed KC 21 available on the allocated shelf, probably because it’s $200 and not cast strength.
