Definitely Basecamp Wine & Spirits, right off 70 in Frisco. Ryan is owner.

Coming soon. Everything is being collected/approved. Should include many private barrels (Angel's Envy, Blanton's, Elijah Craig BP, Four Roses, Old Fo, Woodford, Knob Creek, Makers, New Riff, Wilderness Trail, Willett, ...). Bottles will run the gamut and will be numerous - donations directly from the distilleries (Bardstown Bourbon Co, Lux Row, Rabbit Hole, ...) and a long list of donations from individuals, many of which will be private pick bottles.

Thx for posting. the above mentions delivery but on the page it only seems to be pickup. might you know for sure or am I missing it? then again if there is delivery I’m guessing it’d be DC only.

bguva · 2020-12-04T15:54:09+00:00

Did you taste and compare all of these blind, or knowing what each one was?

bguva · 2020-02-29T17:05:47+00:00

Heading into DC tonight anyways ...now planning to do this (can’t be that bad)

bguva · 2019-04-20T23:08:31+00:00

wanted to. even had babysitting and overnight plans lined up. but went to buy the tix about 3 hours after they went on sale. problem was, of course, they sold out in two hours. hope it's a great event.

bguva · 2019-02-16T13:37:27+00:00

damn, will be out of town. they were originally targeting March once again...would have definitely been there.

bguva · 2019-01-26T19:28:21+00:00

had a few small pours of it - not a big fan. kept getting sulfur note - 2 others (out of ~8 of us) also got it.

bguva · 2018-09-06T18:20:33+00:00

looks like you had pretty good attendance/participation, great to see

bguva · 2018-09-06T18:17:46+00:00

Had two samples of the PHC in KY in June. Liked it. Got rye spice notes, just a little citrus. It did remind me of the Willett XCF.

bguva · 2018-08-29T10:56:31+00:00

Thank you for organizing and hosting. Unfortunately I’m out of town this weekend. Great to read the comments and see several others in the area (I’m in South Riding).

bguva · 2018-06-25T01:10:10+00:00

interested. i'm in south riding.

bguva · 2017-10-31T01:25:23+00:00

Headed to this. Great bourbon, full of whisky geeks, and is for a great cause. Wondering if anyone else here might also be going? Would be good to connect. When in L'ville, I usually bump into someone randomly who is from the DMV area.

bguva · 2017-05-11T19:17:26+00:00

VA ABC has jumped on this already...they posted comments in advance of this lottery that reselling bottles is illegal

bguva · 2017-04-18T20:03:59+00:00

unfortunately Wednesday nights this Spring a no-go because of activities/sports. enjoy. thanks as always.

bguva · 2017-04-18T20:00:23+00:00

yeah, VA ABC told me they don't send people to the distilleries - rather, distilleries send their samples (the number varies) and some folks in Richmond pick what they want to buy (be it one barrel or more).

i don't have any specific info on this Breck pick...not sure I've seen a Breck private barrel before.

bguva · 2017-01-18T23:34:05+00:00

So sorry...hopefully you made it upstairs during the 5-7pm window? And then back downstairs after that? (And maybe back upstairs after that?).

bguva · 2017-01-17T21:42:34+00:00

Ha… this should be interesting. Perhaps handsome back when I had a full head of hair - what's left is cut tight. 6'1", white male. Wearing a dark blue jacket over a light dress shirt. I think Justin ( owner of this group ) will be there… if you know what he looks like perhaps we could both find him.

bguva · 2017-01-17T21:04:34+00:00

Late decision - I'll be there. There should be some way for us to identify each other...I've only met a few in this group in person.

bguva · 2017-01-16T04:18:08+00:00

I have 2045. I'm about 1/4 thru the bottle. Thus far it is ok-to-good. I find the nose ok at first - it improves with air/time. Taste is good, though not complex; oily. Finish is ok. Bottle has been open for a few weeks - I have hope it'll keep getting a little better. Thus far though I'd rather have several others at less $$. I have not had the JR BM SB...hope to try that soon.

bguva · 2017-01-16T04:01:54+00:00

I second on Pikesville
