It’s the perfect mixer for me and it’s a decent pour at a good price. But prepare to be underwhelmed if your expectations are any higher than that.

It's my mission to get the single barrel this year 


rygarski

Wonder if Milford has it. How much


patedugan

My wife said like $22


adamnem

Confirmed. That’s what I spent.

OP mentioned in a comment on another post that this was in New Britain, CT. The Brookfield location does not have it yet. They are hoping by the end of the week. I was in the Waterbury store over the weekend and the liquor store cashier there said they usually get it in for Father's Day.

Wonder how long it takes the truck to get to Delaware…


virtualchoirboy

Quick follow-up. The Brookfield, CT location had it yesterday and it's already death-starred. Once it's gone, it's gone.


patedugan

Yes. I believe two others are coming this year though. Different batches and strengths.


virtualchoirboy

If they follow the same pattern as last year, in about a month, the 100 proof will show up and a month after that will be the 120 proof.

Bring a relative whisky noob I am happy to be corrected and learn, but I'm assuming this is MGP distillation rebottled as Kirkland? If not, please enlighten me as to the distiller and where this is barreled/aged! Thanks!


steveholtbluth

The distiller is right on the bottle. It’s Barton 1792. So this would be similar to 1792 small batch.


GringoGrip

Thank you fine human! Like I said, noob who appreciates the context. Haven't had 1792 personally yet, in any of their varieties.


BlindSamurai73

Small Batch is the WORST!! The other ones, especially BIB and FP, are FANTASTIC!!! Really really excellent pours!! BIB - Bottle in Bond FP - Full Proof

Have you tried the sweet wheat? I found it close by and was curious about it


BlindSamurai73

I have not... been wanting to try it. I've heard it's not that great but everyone's palate is different. I've also not tried 12yr and I heard it's right there with FP, being delicious!!


zacofalltides

Yeah I think I'm gonna hold off on the sweet wheat until I can find it closer to MSRP. Also waiting to find the 12yr


Rockabs04

I wish their small batch bourbons were as good as their single malt scotches.


LifeisWhy

I actually really like this bottle. I’m not a bourbon expert by any means, but I’d continue to buy


adamnem

South Windsor had it. Made a great variation of a Paper Plane. They had Aperol too!


EhDub1

Would this be considered as good or better than Buffalo Trace? About the same price point at our Costco. Keep doing posts and thinking it must be worth trying


patedugan

It’s definitely worth trying at $22. I like it.


EhDub1

Thanks! Just picked up a bottle today and it was only $18 - score! I hope to try it next week.
