      PapaSop I’ve had woodinville many times buts it’s been a while. I even poured along side them at a wine & spirits event…those guys got me wasted! In another coincidence I was just looking at buying a bottle of the rebel yell 100 online but the shipping was nearly as much as the bottle. Hopefully I can find it tomorrow when I’m camping out for the Weller!

      Nice. Good luck on the camp out. Lol. The Rebel is retailing at $20 give or take. Good price for a drinkable bourbon these days. The Woodinville is a bit higher price wise. Is it worth a taste?

        PapaSop I think all Whiskey is worth a taste! If I remember correctly it was a very notable distiller (the name escapes me) that was a consultant when they started and pointed them in the right direction. Last time I had it the whiskey was very young. I’m sure the properly aged stuff is quite good.

        Washington state consumers got screwed when Costco lobbied to take liquor sales away from state ran stores. Now we have a 50%+ tax on liquor and only large stores with x amount of sq ft can sell it unless you are in a very rural community. A half gallon of gut rot vodka will set you back $20 or more. Luckily Oregon is only a 10 minute drive where booze, cigarettes and gasoline are considerably cheaper.

          May give it a go. They state on the label the grains are sourced from a family farm in Quincy.

          Just reading your edit. WTH. Bad move on your states decision there. IMO.

            Just tried the Rebel Yell 100. Both neat and rocks. Was surprised that neat was very smooth for a 100 proof. Rocks was good as well. Although I don’t mix very often it would be good with ginger ale and a dash of bitters.

            Also had a new product come in today. What caught my eye was that it’s from Washington State. Perhaps Joe Hell has heard of this. Woodinville bourbon whiskey.

            Just go grab a bottle. What’s your drink of choice? Hopefully something orange 😉

              PapaSop I believe there are some local breweries and distilleries using grain from the farm adjacent to the family farm which we harvest. I’ll try to find out who and update you!

                  One thing NY state has done right is mandating breweries/distillers use NY state hops and grains, something like 25% have to come from NY state. Actually helps the agriculture in NY. Pretty cool, I live 30 minutes south of Rochester but it’s a different world, pretty rural.

                    Parksider I agree with that philosophy. I think here in Washington that distilleries have to use at least 50% WA grown product in their production.

                              PapaSop Isn’t the special reserve just the normal Weller’s? I was thinking the 12 Year was the next step up.

                                  PapaSop That’s the one I’m most familiar with. I’ve only had the Antique 107 once…I believe it was $20 for a single shot. There was a one bottle limit per day for both bottles but they said to call in the morning and if they still have some that I can reserve them as long as I race out there…and I will! I have the morning off so I’m crossing my fingers!
