Due to the fire, theft, and demand, pretty much all Pappy has become almost unobtainable. I was lucky to get my hands on this for the holidays.
I'll be there around 7 to help you with that....

I love me some Jack Dainyells, but my cabinet has Buffalo Trace in it all the time. I do splash sprite, because that is what I like. When I want a short change of scenery, I get Eagle Rare or Four Roses Single Barrel. Both are similar but different to BT.
And that is my humble opinion and likes.

word on the street is that Pappy's "Lot B" was tainted with cat piss & ketchup. I bet that's somes nasty stuff! I'd like to try some just to see what all the fuss is about.

The ever elusive Pappy...that is like finding a 200" buck swimming through your duck hole as mallards are raining down from the heavens.

Which is why e'rrbody carries a pistol in their blind bag right next to the toilet paper.
Seriously, after re-reading this thread, am I the only person who is getting real thirsty?
MAN, I could sure go for a drink right about now.

That is a VERY, VERY good friend. You could sell that thing on ebay and buy a nice gun.

Lot of people asking these kinds of prices, and that is supposedly the black market value. However, I have not heard a certified account of a single bottle selling for close to that.
