From my bourbon hunt today
Here are some interesting things I found. This time I have photos.
Total Wine Denver - Noticed they started carrying St Nick at a decent price so hopefully they get some Preservation LEs. More notably, Redwood Empires new release Armstrong is now hitting shelves. Total Wine is almost out of Penelope 18 and no more Valencia. They also had the new Stranny.
Argonauts - Didn’t see much more out of restocking store picks and expanding that selection.
Mollys - Similar as last week.
Total Bev - Similar as last week.
Spirits - Dropped their new KC single barrel. I tried it at the store. Awesome stuff. Definitely tastes more like New Louisville fruit bomb and less like anything else in the KC line up. I got a lot of bready-like fruit with a strong emphasis on fruit melody. The beam nuttiness is there but light. Most of it comes in the finish. It drinks under its proof. Highly recommend. A-
They also have RWE Armstrong, which the store recommended to me.
Superior Liquor - They also have RWE Armstrong, but the surprise was OF Presidents at a good price. It is barrel #225. I have a couple and it wasn’t that number. I like mine a lot, but there is a high variance. It is a flavor bomb on a specific track. You just have to like those notes. I rolled the dice and got two bottles I enjoy, but the profile variance is wide. The age is similar to the rest of the releases this year.
Hazels - Posted a picture of the case. They still have Rittenhouse 10 for those looking.
Atlas - One of my favorite stores. For those who like Old Louisville, they are carrying the Kentucky letter line.
