The Yamato is smooth and delicious. Tenjaku is just as good.

Careful..Tenjaku is Fake Japanese whisky and Yamato is Sochu labled as whisky

Infographic: Japanese Whisky, Real or Fake? - Nomunication

The latest infographic makes it easy to tell if the “Japanese” whisky you’re drinking is actually Japanese or not! This is a bit of a hot-button topic at the moment — see my recent interview with Dave Broom to find out why. Whiskey RichardHi there! I created and run nomunication.jp. I’ve lived...

Four roses drop here in PA. Now I’m at 8/10 recipes, on the hunt for OBSV and OBSQ

I’m a bourbon guy through and through but Lagavulin 16 is my favorite whiskey ever (next to WT101). Couldn’t pass this up

I will say this: do not buy into the PR spin regarding Sazerac changing distributors nationwide. Nothing will change about BTAC and Pappy availability other than how poorly mismanaged it will be. Trust me. In my market, the new distributor has reps selling the entire BTAC and Pappy lineup into gas stations, then the rep goes in and buys it all for themselves. They're not even locking it down on allocation. You can just order it. It's a disaster already.

One of the few instances I’m glad I’m in a control state. Should help mitigate the shenanigans

Michigan has always been a joke with how they distribute it so I am not expecting too much difference... Kinda hope some of the DBag owners get froze out

Went to my local Costco on a Wednesday morning after an early doctor's appointment, saw a few guys lined up outside, I now know why

Blanton's $54
ER $31
EHT $40

Folks are saying BTAC releases are gonna dry up for a bit because of the new distributor.

What state are you in? That's absolutely brutal. Reps buying their own bottles to flip. SMH.

Walgreens I stopped in for Larceny, and the cashier suggested Eagle Rare. Hesitantly bought 2, $37 a piece pretty good but she told me Blanton's sold out at $80 a piece

 

[turbo95eg6]

I prefer Eagle rare imo

Nuts how difficult the horsey is in a majority of states. It’s a solid pour despite the hate it gets regarding it hype. We get it at least a once a month here in PA so I can usually ge 3-4 bottles if I put in the leg work. People trade BTAC for multiples of blantons which is nuts to me

I never understood it but Blantons will get you anything if you have enough of them.

Apparently Costco is AZ is the place to get bottles...

That's Crazy! Here in CT its so tough to find any of these bottles and if you do you're paying a premium on it. I got excited because I found Eagle Rare for $59.99 last week.

Our Costco's get stuff like this but it's never on the shelf long enough to walk up and buy it.

San diego is such crazy spot. There is a legit mafia down here that gets all the really popular allocated bottled.

I know a guy that has 176 bottles of Stagg Jr....all different batches and store picks.....

It ain't that damn serious.

 

[af1 1982]

I just had Weller Full Proof tonight, it was delicious.

But the best wheater I’ve had recently is Larceny C922. That bottle is special. The oak presence in that is robust but not overpowering.

 

[1stwitit]

Finally came across a bottle to try

Great juice at a good price.

Macallan Edition No. 6 tonight for a special occasion....

The 10th Eddie went

Been after this one for a while. Single barrel is up next

I've never seen Eagle Rare here in FL.

Good choice with the drink and Oliva, the V Melanio Maduro is a personal favorite

Was in the CVS by Aria on the strip in Las Vegas, they were selling Blanton’s for $150.

Ironically, they had Toki for $59.99 and Hibiki for $99.99.
