They have the new Maker's Mark wood finished so I tried that. It's a definite buy if I find it at retail. (I liked it better than B EP, Mike). Also tried the Old Forester 1924 (Bottled in Bond). Good, but I won't seek it out. I finished off with a banger, a 8 year purple top Willett single barrel ("Honeymoon Hacienda") at 136 proof. Outstanding.

Nice bar!!! Wow, some great pours you can get. And seriously behind on finding 24-02 Bookers here. Looks like West Coast will lag this release.
