[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 203752, member: 1211"] Cosigned. I believe it is $18.79 here. At less than $25, I don't think you can beat it or WT Russell's Reserve ($23.79). And honestly, I'd take either of these before many whiskeys in the $20-35 range. This weekend I grabbed some of the newly formulated Four Roses Yellow Label (regular) for $16.79. I'd never tried any Four Roses. I'm still undecided on the flavor. I didn't have the best type meal to be drinking whiskey after it. I will say it is incredibly smooth; possibly the smoothest whiskey I've had sub-$20. Some reviews talk of oak and leather, and besides smoke (peat), those are at the top of my flavor desires. I definitely didn't catch any leather, and if any oakiness, it was very mild. I know. I know. What can I expect at $17? I was reminded that you have to pay for bold flavors (Rare Breed is my next purchase). I'll come back with a secondary report when I get the chance to visit the bottle again. My 8th grade English teacher used to profess, "You haven't read it once until you've read it twice." When it comes to drink, tobacco, and music, I've adopted the rule of "you haven't heard or tasted it once until you've tried it thrice." I'm probably repeating myself. I'm getting deja vu. [/QUOTE]
