    I was just in Louisville Saturday. Did The Whole Shebang experience at Pursuit, it was a great time. A friend of yours was in the group I was in, said he used to work with you, and you where the one who got him into Pursuit, unfortunately I don’t remember his name. Didn’t get chance to do any hunting, but I did make the drive over to Buffalo Trace, Wild Turkey, Woodford Reserve and Glens Creek, Finished up the day at Angels Envy in downtown Louisville.

    I worked for Total Wine for a few years and got to know some of their Spirit Direct products. They’ve been bringing in some really nice stuff recently. It isn’t the usual suspects that bourbon guys are looking for, but some of it isn’t bad at all. Chestnut Farms has always taken a lot of abuse from people because it’s pushed pretty hard by Total Wine. It’s not bad. Maybe a little overpriced for what is being a Barton 1792 sourced product. I’d like to see it put into a blind and see how it does. The Four Grain Hard Truth is probably the best of their BIB release in my opinion 🥃

    • @whiskey_weather
      @whiskey_weather  11 дней назад

      @@jaxcoop1511 thanks for the insight. That’s interesting. What was your favorite of the offerings they had, is it Chestnut Farms? I will say Barton juice is good, but 64.99 is a bit high when you can get other Barton sourced things at higher proof near that price. I’m not 💯 against it, but I’d probably spend my $$ on something else. Would def be a good blind. Thanks for the idea!
      That 4 Grain Hard Truth is the only one of their offerings I haven’t had. Cheers Jax! Appreciate you!

    • @whiskey_weather
      @whiskey_weather  11 дней назад

      I think the bigger issue with total wine is that they don’t recommend things for the right reasons. The selection is great. I think liquor barn’s is just as good but I know that’s only in KY.
      Don’t disagree on your point. However, I have lived in states where the minimum price on the 4 year rye was $80. So at $59.99 or whatever it was, it was actually much cheaper than a lot of spots have it. Sadly there are too many over priced bottles out there.
      I do think that with this year and the glut, we are going to slowly see prices dip
