    Default anyone as SOS/NGD?

    in town for the shows, will hit Buff TRace in the morning to stock up on bourbon I cannot get in VA, then head to SOS, and be in again on Sat AM for whatever I missed at SOS and the rest of the day (or most of it) at NGD,

    SOS I’m guessing is the Show of Shows?
    NGD isn’t clicking for me. ???

    Good luck on the Buffalo Trace. Finally found one in DuPage County IL.
    It was their last bottle.
    Small batch and sudden high demand has depleted most inventory.
    From what I’m told, the distillery itself is short on supply. Visitors were limited to one bottle each. I have since heard they aren’t able to offer that.

    Thought it unusual when I started seeing bourbon collectors on youtube scouring the country for bourbons just to collect. Buying it all when they found it. Had a little Buffalo Trace left, and can't find any to replace it now.

    12 bottles of Trace. Calendar must’ve said it was time to pop more barrels.
    Last weekend party at my house finished off the Woodford and left me just a few ounces of BT. I would like to find another bottle for a rainy day.
    Have been a Jim Beam sipper for a long time. Easy and affordable and it’s always available. A couple of years ago my son and nephew introduced me to Buffalo Trace. I find the flavor very enjoyable and a welcome change of pace.
    I have my own self-imposed two drink limit. But BT makes it very tempting to pour a third.

    JB, I try to keep to the same limit,
    2 drinks, of 2 fingers,

    once in a while a 3rd, depends on the day

    last year the limit was 6, for Trace


    and it seems to be regional, here, it is allocated, I have friends in NM, Wisc and not far from you that find it often , and in good supply

    I have a bottle of woodford reserve from 2000 that has the pretty horse head on it and a tie tack etc. It is a numbered bottle.
    I bought it cause I liked the bottle. I don't drink bourbon or whiskey, never developed a taste for it.
    Make me an offer. It is a "collectible" I know.
