Ram Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I think I own at least 10 bottles I'd take over any of the Pappy or Van Winkle line. I've had every one of their offerings and own three myself. At retail the Old Rip and Lot B are priced pretty fairly -- not as much for the older stuff. At secondary and/or bar prices they are all extremely, extremely overrated. Just in 2014 I'd take KY Owl, Eagle Rare 17, George T Stagg, William LaRue Weller, Barterhouse, Old Forester Birthday Bourbon, Old Forester Single Barrel, Jefferson Ocean 2nd Voyage, and several Four Roses picks over the three 2014 Van Winkle bourbon's I've had. Different strokes I guess. I've not had Kentucky Owl or Jefferson Ocean, I'm Ok with Ealgle Rare, Stagg and Weller. I do like Barterhouse and Four Roses. I can take Old Forester. But, if I had my preference I would take Van Winkle and Blanton's over everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 As soon as I win my next BGP contest, I'll be drinking my bourbon out of one of the new BluegrassPreps.com tumblers. :bunny: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigVMan23 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'm with you, I become a butt when people mention Jack Danials as Bourbon. After a quick lesson on the requirements to classify a spirit as Bourbon and and how Tennessee Whiskey is made, I'm sure people leave telling others what a jerk Ram is. Don't people usually walk away from you feeling that way regardless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say drink your bourbon out of whatever you want and drink whatever you want. I choose a Glencairn, but it a red solo cup is all I have, I'll do it.
