Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order.

Drink that bottle and get used to the taste. Try it neat and then with ice. Huge difference. My favorite is angles envy but I am currently doing Elijah Craig which I like.
Trying to find something not too expensive in the $30 range that can actually be somewhat readily bought a i stop drinking on my hard to find stuff so much. Went to the store tonight and picked up some Russels 10 yr.
Tried Basil Hayedens in this price range last time and it was fine. [Reply]

If I could find Buffalo Trace in the $30s, I'ld be all over that all day. Where we are, if you can find it, it's $50+. Still worth it, but not necessarily an every day whiskey. I can get a 1.75 handle of Elijah Craig for $38...that's more doable. [Reply]
