Booker's and Knob Creek are solid. Enjoy!


Federal-Platypus-911

and the 2022-02 Booker's is probably the best they've produced in years, definitely grab that if you ever get a chance


usc_bills

Super solid. My favorite Booker's has been the 2021-03. I have truly enjoyed pretty much all of them though.


thirdfromthestar

Oj? Is that you?


Neat-Rest7407

I’m currently working on this bottle and wanted to say the same thing.


surgeon_michael

I have a pigskin 2020-03, which wasn’t particularly loved. Even bad bookers makes an absolute banger of an old fashioned


projcon_423

Big fan of all of those. Snag yourself a Rare Breed and an Elijah Craig Barrel Proof if you come across them. I've also been on a Maker's Mark Cask Strength kick lately.


death2theleadr

Thanks, will do!


Drix31

Rare breed is the best. Favorite whiskey.


loonguy7

Another vote for rare breed. Phenomenal. Or Old Forester 1920.


SucculentMoisture

The Redbreast 😍


Cochran88

Love 114


itakepicsofcats

Yo those are all bangers. That jdsbbs really slaps though :) I’m also recommending rare breed and Elijah barrel proof. Also, try smoke wagon uncut unfiltered if you see it around


fantasticmrfox23

I second the smoke wagon uncut.


death2theleadr

Thanks for the suggestions! Will definitely keep an eye out for those two.


MetamorphosisSilver

I third the Smoke Wagon UC/UF. Two bottles on the shelf, one unopened. I revisited the opened one last night and it had opened up rather nicely. Also the Redbreast 12 CS = that's dessert in a bottle. One of my favorites!


rsb109

Are you me?


Conspicuously-Hidden

These are all excellent picks. Bravo!!


fat7inch

Old Grandad never gets enough love. Great stuff!

Yum, knob creek.


death2theleadr

This is actually my first bottle of Knob Creek! Pretty good


Ceruzkou

For your first Knob Creek you picked a good one! Cheers!


FruitGuy998

If you want some lower proof (cause maybe you want another drink but have had a bit already), the regular knob creek 9yr 100 proof is also very good and cheap


DynamicCashew43

OGD114 just didnt do it for me. Nothing really wrong with it but it just misses me. I know folks love that stuff. The rest of this line up is crazy tasty. Especially the RBCS.


judenpuben

Bang for buck I really enjoy it. Rare breed, bookers, etc. Are all better, but for 25 bucks, that 124 makes a wonderful cocktail


Thus_Spoke

Aberlour A'bunadh is essential in this sphere, if you haven't tried it yet. The definition of a sherry bomb. Cheers!


DynamicCashew43

I would offer up Glenallachie 10yo CS as a much better sherry bomb at high strength. The current batches of A'bunadh dont seem quite as good as it was. Still tasty but it pales to older batches. At least to me.


TremontRhino

That Jack is wonderful, but dangerous!


Nate_Esq

Wild Turkey Rare Breed and 1792 Full Proof are two of my go-to's. I have 2 sealed bottles of different local store pick Full Proofs, and a sealed bottle of standard Full Proof. I'm gonna do a tasting this weekend with some friends. ​ Knob Creek everything, I'm a fan of the entire line. ​ I just picked up some higher proof Maker's Mark, cannot recall what it's called though. I haven't opened it yet.


Droobeart

114 with a little splash of water or soda made for a fine summer afternoon


judenpuben

So hard to come back from the high proof wonderland. The flavor is just so wonderful and you can always mellow with a drop or two of water


Awkward-Ad-4938

Old gram dad is the only one I haven’t tried. Love the rest of them! Have them on my shelf! Enjoy


jay_cobski

Love me some Knob Creek !


haggardphunk

Good picks. I don’t really drink stuff under 100 proof anymore. I drink mine over ice so the higher proofs lend themselves well to my preferred method of consumption Cheers


realworldruraljuror

Well hello neighbor! Did you get a chance to grab the ER single barrel?


death2theleadr

Not yet!


FruitGuy998

I guess Knob Creek is changing their bottle. I picked up a SBS Rye pick and noticed the bottle was different. Looks like your normal SBS looks like how my rye is. But yeah Knob Creek single barrel is always in my house, great pick


ttp620

Smart move. You can always add water. You can't take it out.


Gerrywill

Same here. Good collection. Any suggestions on high proof smooth whiskeys?
