Have you sipped the Whistle Pig yet? I'd imagine that it's quite good. My wife and I don't usually buy non-Kentucky-made-bourbon/whiskey (unless we're in the mood for a Glendronach!), but the Whistle Pig is interesting.

Whistle Pig is good! You can quickly get sucked into buying their aged bottles which are just delicious!

We had a few different bottles of whistle pig for a company party a few years back. I don't remember exactly which ones, I think I posted them in this thread somewhere, but they were pretty good.

Proudly wearing my MC1R mutation!
I have a whistle pig 10 on the shelf.
Having spent a good portion of my life in VT, I was predisposed to liking it. It was good, but I think one can do better for the money.

Anybody had this before? Apparently a Buffalo Trace product. Local Total Wine had some & it sold out in 2 hours. My neighbor snagged me a bottle...I like it. Was $55 for 750ml

Got this today. Tastes good but the only thing I can compare to is Woodford Reserve Double Oaked which was good too. Bourbon newb.

Honestly...too much for how it tastes. More heat then I expected. ~$80ish after tax. Not bad but not great for the price tag.

On Columbus Day, my wife and I headed to Georgetown, KY for a tasting at "Bourbon 30" - the J. Mattingly distillery and tasting room. It was the most enjoyable tasting we've ever had. The bourbon, made by owner Jeff Mattingly - who we got to hang out and drink with - was stunningly good. They allow visitors to pull their favorite bourbon straight from the barrel, or to make their own blend (guided by J. Mattingly). We bought one of each type (single barrel, and a blended "wheated bourbon"). The crew there were wonderful. If you ever find yourself in central, KY, I would highly recommend a visit to this craft distillery. We're saving out bottles for a special occasion, or two 
.
I'm not sure if they distribute in the Carolinas, but if they do, pick up a bottle. Their entry level bourbon is $40 - and it is very good stuff. Blends and single barrels range from $120 to $175. We splashed out for the top shelf stuff... only for a special occasion.

Bought my dad Proof old fashioned syrup and Old Grand-Dad for his bday. Spent the Thanksgiving break drinking old fashioneds with him. The OGD is gone and half a bottle of proof left. Not a bad combination...
second that! Where did you find it? Very hard to do so!
