Those 9 year Knob Creek picks are either good or they're great. Hope you got a great one Chayse.
Picked this up today

Nice Carlos! Fred Minnick put it at #6 whiskey for 2022. For my palate, this one and 22-04 (Pinkie's) are the best 2 batches since Country Ham (19-03).
Tom @icehog3 , I hadn't heard of Fred Minnick...but now I'm down a rabbithole of good reading on his website!
Saw this and sincerely wished I had asked Santa for it:

They let you pick the barrel, but do you get any of the bottles with that experience Carlos?

Wasn’t necessarily looking for weller but happened to get on the ohio liquor page mostly looking for Bookers, EJ BP or knob creek 12 and saw 2 places with this, tried calling the krogers and couldn’t get ahold of the liquor store part so called this other place and they had 2 bottles, limit 1 per customer. A tiny Hole in a wall place half deli half cheap beer and cigs that just happened to have a whole wall of bourbon too. @icehog3 they had a whole row of WhistlePig 15 rye $299 though so I passed, also had the 10 and 13. I may go back and get a blade and bow though.

That a 1.75, Chayse? Weller is a nice lower proof pour.
I have had my best luck with single barrel picks from Whistlepig. If I was going to buy one that wasn't a pick, I'd buy the 10 Year. But lots of the picks are 13-15 years old and bottled in the 10 year bottle.
Just a 750 Tom, definitely is Tom it’s been a while since I’ve had a pour of it but always enjoyed it especially for $25 out of the door.
I really need to stop going in liquor stores. Had a lead this evening and was a little early so as I’m about 2 minutes away and 15 minutes early sitting at a red light and I look over and there’s a liquor store so I pull in. Didn’t find anything to to crazy bourbon wise but found this sitting on the shelf, I went back and forth on it and even left and did the lead and came back to the store but at the end of the day I wanted to have the cool box on my shelf lol.

Chayse, I drive my GF nuts when we're out and about in new places. If I see a liquor store, especially a small independent one, I gotta go in.

"Didn't you just buy a Booker's?"
"Yeah, but that was an earlier release!"
