A good word of advice: have someone you trust to take care of the liquidation of your inventory and give the money to your family. This is something James, John and I have discussed before. Whether...

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I grabbed these today at a new store. They were a bit more than I like to pay for Stagg Jr., but well below secondary. I would have had a case had I gotten there five minutes sooner.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I have not seen OF1924 in the wild, but when it is available, it goes really fast. Not a fan of the price (roughly 115-120). I would like to grab a bottle, but I've got too many of other stuff right...

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I agree with Sterns and PW assessments on the EW BIB and SiB, but that is if you want to go inexpensive. There are a lot of other bourbons out there that are good and usually in the $15-$25 range....

Grabbed another bottle of Stagg this morning.
Tom, I need to do an inventory soon, for personal tracking.
Ben, I might be up there again soon. Will let you and Peter know when I find out.
