A good enough reason to throw a party if I ever saw one
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A well-known Kentucky bourbon distillery is celebrating a huge milestone. Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort has filled its nine millionth barrel of bourbon since Prohibition.
I haven't ingested whiskey in years due to stomach problems which were probably caused by my over imbibing in my youth, but I'm glad to see and raise a glass of sweet tea in saluting a good solid old American industry member turning out a great product.
Buffalo Trace? Too much good stuff out there to waste my time trying to find over-hyped and over-priced BT products. I won't pay $100 for a $30 bottle. Give me Evan Williams BIB, Elijah Craig Cask Str, Knob Creek 12 year, Pikesville Rye, Maker's Cask Str, the Maker's 46 line, and the entire Old Forester line. Special occasion? Break out the Henry McKenna 10yr BIB or the Bookers.

ReplyDeleteDunno who can drink that foul swill. Every one I've ever tried has been nasty, and I like brown likker!
ReplyDeleteBourbon in general or just Buffalo Trace, ya ignorant heathen?
DeleteTry Larceny. Smooth as silk.
DeleteLarceny and Four Roses are my favorite bourbons, hands down.

ReplyDeleteI don't buy their high-end shit either. Matter of fact, I don't buy anybody's high-end shit.
DeleteAnd I read recently that alcohol consumption was way down...
