Distillery No. 209

Buffalo Trace Distillery

Harlen D. Wheatley CLIX Vodka

Bit sweet no burn but a warming feel. Has a pleasant finish with no alcohol burn. My Russian friends prefer a bit more punch. Comes in an amazing case for the bottle which is all you are really buying. The bottle itself is ridiculously heavy as well with a replacement top for later use as a cognac decanter. — 2 months ago

@Somm David T I gave it to someone for the 50th. Getting it engraved was next level. Didn’t even think of that but wow would that make it special.

The box it comes in is beyond special imho

The Balvenie Distillery

TUN 1509 Batch No. 4 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Beautiful honey amber color. Elegant aromas of toffee, caramel, red apple, baking spice, oiled leather, and dried figs. Palate coating mouthfeel. Flavor profile expands upon the above with subtle citrus notes, honeycomb, and bitter chocolate. Water brings out the warmth of cream of wheat and other malted flavors. Long, luxurious finish. Excellent dram! — 5 years ago

Buffalo Trace Distillery

Sazerac Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

How does anyone not hoard (regular) Sazerac at ~$25?!
Incredibly smooth, great sweet note to the finish. Again, why haven't I not been buying this for years...?

(BTW Kirkland Bourbon at $30 is worth the price of admission, earthy oak note on the palate is quite similar to Buffalo Trace.)

Counter-Clockwise from top left:

Surprisingly Eagle Rare 10 is highly allocated this year if you’ve had in the past. One bottle only on K&L
