Anyone drink this? A guy I work with said it was good. Just seeing what the THf bourbon aficionados have to say about it before I head to the liquor store.

I have never tried that one. Watching for reviews.

That is the go-to for three of my family members.

It’s one of the four from small batches from Beam. The others are Booker’s, Knob Creek, and Bakers. Haven’t tried Basil Hayden’s, don’t like Bakers too much, but love the other two. Now there’s my worthless input for the day.

Basil is about $42 here. After you try it try some Rowan’s Creek another good small batch brew.

Basil Heyden's replaced Blanton for me. Maybe I should have stood in line.

I recently got hooked on it and I prefer it now over Blantons. Went back to the store and bought 3 more bottles last week. Wasn’t sure if the liquor stores would be affected with all the closings..

It is a small batch whiskey and sometimes will not be available in certain stores. I generally call on these small batch brands and ask them to hold a bottle for me rather than drive from store to store.

You will enjoy it. ^^^^^^
Noah's Mill is made by the same folks as Rowan's Creek. Lefty if that picture of those four are yours you have good taste. I have two bottles of Eagle Rare now and one of them will be opened tomorrow or the next day as soon as I empty a bottle of Trace.

Sometimes you just get lucky! I scored a bottle of Blanton's at Spec's today.
