Also, I hadn't realized this Iowa Bourbon was made by Cedar Ridge. I have no idea about their rums, but I recently tried both their vodka and gin and was totally impressed. It's really good stuff. As long as the prices are comparable, I would definitely buy the vodka over most other middle/upper-shelf brands.

A friend and I enjoyed some bourbon on Saturday night, we both liked it. He thought it was better than Templeton but I haven't had it so I can't comment on that.

I really want to try it, but haven't seen it around yet. Haven't looked that hard either, I suppose.

I found a bottle of Templeton in a gas station in Floyd, IA about a month ago. That was a happy day.

No doubt!

My wife told me she saw some Templeton on a shelf at Hy-Vee, but didn't bother to pick one up. She and I had some words about that. She now understands that she is to pick up a bottle if and when she sees one.

If you don't even like the stuff, then why do you need an entire pallet? Sheesh. Some people.









:jimlad:


I actually appreciate when somebody points out this kind of repeat mistake. A one time deal is one thing, but I continued to make the same mistake. I could either call you a spelling and grammar nazi, or accept the fact that I needed correcting here. Jolly good.

My 3-year old has better comprehension skills than you do.

1) I admitted that I have no pallet for bourbon

2) I admitted I am biased on the subject

3) I was skunk-drunk with my first few posts in this thread. Not something you should take too seriously.

So which is worse?

I can't comprehend the ramblings of a drunk who doesn't answer my question, or the thought of that same rambling incoherent drunk having offspring?

Either way, I'm done playing. I've already spent more time with you than people I like. Thanks.

The fact that I had you on my line this long amazes me. Oh, and you were done playing by your first post in the thread.
