      I was thinking that the Westland was going to come in 2nd, but other than that I don't think there were any surprises in the lineup. I was thinking of getting my sister to do this, but I think she would have made it through the first 2 and then bailed out.

      @whiskeyisajourney - I haven't tried any of their special releases or their numbers casks. But I love their standard release. Absolutely love it. Peat is hit or miss with me. My favorite whiskey is peated - Ardbeg 19 - and my most hated whiskey - Bowmore 12 - is peated. I haven't had any peated American Single Malts. Can't really count Del Bac, which is pretty darn good.

    If you haven't tried it yet, you should grab yourself a bottle of McCarthy's. This is actually the very first American Single Malt and they are all peated (imported scottish peat). Standard expressions are 3yo and 6yo, but the 6yo Oloroso and 6yo PX are fantastic. You can sometimes find their single barrels too which can be fun. In fact, there is a 6yo fully rum cask matured single barrel releasing in the next week or two.

    • @whiskeyisajourney
      @whiskeyisajourney 2 дня назад

      I picked up a bottle of McCarthy's while I was up in Portland a year ago. Good stuff but I did not put it in the flight because of the peated barley from Scotland. Cheers!

    Good thing you didn't have Amrut Peated Cask strength in the mix. That was was cinnamon spice with a tinge of peat to it. BlackPitts I have in the bunker. The Costco by me gave up on it and was liquidating it for $37 so I bought one. I think with that one I'll drink it on its own. The Westland Solum really interest me. I'm going to save for that one. Thanks for doing this and best of luck with the Double Hernia surgery. that does not sound pleasant.

    These aren't available around me but I picked up the rickhouse proof soft red wheat while in Wisconsin this summer. I enjoyed it.

    Got a bevmo pick today. Classic bourbon profile. Getting young 🌽 no defined fruit, sweet. Decent I say skip...🙃 I should've paid up for 🌹🌹🌹🌹 PSSB 🥃. 2019 I had full proof which was my intro to anything over 101. Sweet 🔥 is all I remember 😅. Traders joes 125 proof & Jack's sbbp reminds me of it.

    How would a consumer know what barrel these are from? Say for example; you really liked a barrel & wanted to go out & buy the same one; Or if you didn't like a barrel & wanted to make sure you did NOT buy the same one. JD SiB & KC SiB Select (store Picks) have this info on the bottle. Thanks!

      That is a great question. Let me grab my bottle and see if there's a laser coat on it. L2182CLJ followed by some numbers underneath 515381259 I'm sure they mean something but I don't know exactly what.

    Only had the standard BiB at $60, it's good, it ain't $60 good. Should be a $35-40 bottle.

    I also prefer their standard bourbon to the wheated version. The wheated didn't have any bad notes, but it just seemed kind of bland to me. I think my blend was 100% floor 3 barrels. Like you said, maybe there is batch variation with blends from different floors.

    I have no experience with any Holladay products. Apparently there is a 120 proof "Rickhouse proof" version available. I wonder how it compares to the BiB..?
