@BourbEnthusiasm I truly believe “Small Batch” holding at between 10-12,000 bottle per run is both fair and makes the product relatively unique. Fewer will make it extremely hard to replicate and more loses the special nature of “vintage.”

[Brett Gilmore @BrettonGilmore]

@BourbEnthusiasm Yep - yep

@GooseEagle @BourbEnthusiasm Bomberger has a fuller mouth feel and more robust triggers for tasting notes. Shenk comes across thinner like a Scotch. Both are excellent in their own regards. But, Bomberger is by far my preference. Fort Collins has both usually to try together when in Louisville.

@whiskey_wx For price and availability - Weller 12

@BourbEnthusiasm I sense they are ramping up productivity by adding another column still and capacity onsite. Before the flood, things were looking more active. Some effort shifted to clean up after. As things settle back into normal, back at it. The uptick now it marketing release not production

[Brett Gilmore @BrettonGilmore]

@BourbEnthusiasm Bomberger’s - yes please

[Brett Gilmore @BrettonGilmore]

@BourbEnthusiasm No - but I do use scotch to make an Old fashioned variant with Amaretto substituted for sugar cube or simple syrup and dash of bitters called a Godfather

@FortyAcreVibes B- = great start and potential. Very disappointing home stretch and ending.

Milam & Greene has the age old question “Answer”ed. Does geography (Kentucky vs. Texas) impact flavor? “YES” it does in a glorious way. Both awesomely unique and complimentary.
