    Saw Small Batch for $150 and Single Barrel for $200. I'll pass every time at that price. As it was sitting next to a Rock Hill Farms for $499. I guess the lesson is never go hunting in a college town.

    Just curious, do you tend to pick all your EHT Sibs or get them from local stores? Here in OH, I've had two bottles and both were disappointing, and most people I know down here that have had one were not impressed or just want to trade them for something better. It may be that store picks or on-site picks are exceptional but the average barrel isn't.
    Btw I agree that none of the mash bill 2 sibs can hold a mash bill 1's beer

    I definitely hunt a lot for bourbon, but i made a rule to only hunt at $10 or less of a markup. If msrp is $75, i refuse to pay more than $85. I spent a TON of money on hunting those big BT brands, and theyre great bourbons, but not anywhere close to the marked up price they sit at currently. It...isnt...worth...it. Period.
    I highly advise anyone getting into bourbon to have a similar rule for themselves. You most likely will regret buying a marked up bottle, it will probably effect other parts of your finances in a negative way, and at the end of the day...a bottle of E.H. Taylor...tastes like bourbon. Its all bourbon. And none of it is worth more than $200 a bottle, and thats only reserved for the pappy type bottles...
