I've been going to a warehouse size liquor store (similar to Total Wine and More) to buy beer, but since learning a bit about Bourbon, I checked out their selection. I didn't see any of the ones I'm interested in trying, but now that I know about barrel picks, it was interesting to see what they had. There were at least four or five but the only one that really caught my attention was a Four Roses single barrel barrel pick. I like the small batch and it would be interesting to try the single barrel, but it was a bit pricy for me.

I’ll be using it for gin and tonics so I’m sure it will be fine. The store I bought my Blanton’s had more bottles, paired with gin of course. Since that’s a pretty good deal, I might pick up a second bottle. $80 is a bit of an upcharge for Blanton’s but $30 is the right price for the gin. My sister lives right next to the store in TN and I’ll be driving back her way in a few days. |

There are a lot of benefits to life in Idaho but whisky/bourbon availability is not one. We were supposed to have a lottery this month and this month appears to have come and almost gone. I get a text when BT is in stock and I go buy 6 bottles. I gave the manager a bottle of Don Julio 1942 in the box last month because she held the only bottle of Blanton's she's seen all year.

I bet a lot of Master Distillers would get a chuckle outta this thread, cause I suspect they kinda realize so much of it is actually way more similar than different, especially within distillery brands, and even across them. Branding.
