One of my favorite bourbons that can be had at nearly every store for a reasonable amount.

Counting on it.
Dalmore 15 is my new Scotch.
Been buying 1-2 bottles a year of something different, and only pulling them out for 1-2 glasses at a holidays or special events. Been trying to find something without the peat flavor, or too much smoke. And this was it. So smooth.
Would recommend 10/10 again

For those in Nevada, if you haven't started drinking Smoke Wagon, you're wrong. My local did two private barrel picks for black Friday and I got two bottles. Amazing stuff.

Anyone had Kentucky Owl Rye? Wondering if I can justify the price to myself.
Loved Batch 01. Batch 02 was ok. And I have not tried Batch 03. Not sure batch 02 is worth $199 MSRP.

Not for fine drinking - but I marinated a nice sized skirt steak in some plain old Jim Beam - sealed it in a bag and let it drink all night then grilled it on a blistering hot cast iron griddle.
Kentucky Bourbon Skirt Steak make cheap bourbon good again.

Nice - Kentucky Bourbon - made in Baltimore Maryland. A true military special - I'll bet that same company makes Kansas City style BBQ and New York style pizza.
Jim Beam is the champagne of cheap whiskey. I haven't bought bottom-shelf-plastic-bottle PX liquor since I was a Spec-4....
I'm sure my skirt steak would have had more class if it had been marinated in Pappy VanWinkle - but if I could afford high end bourbon - it would not be poured over low end beef !!!
Just sayin'

Military Special is a sourced bourbon, the distillery is actually in Kentucky. Barton Distillery (Owned by Sazerac), which is the distillery of 1792, is where Military Special is sourced from.

My SS SS likes me...
Talisker... 10 year... Delicious! Lovely smoky nose. Nice little explosion of yumminess in every sip.
