Any of you fellers try “Old Elk”? I bought a bottle. I love elk, love the taste of elk, love hunting elk, watching elk, everything about elk! Love the name, the bottle, the cork…and we’ll stop there. I found what’s in the bottle to be absolutely horrid!!!! My buddies and I call it “Dead Elk”. I even left it open a while hoping it was just “neckpouritis”, and tried it again a month later, still horrible. It is still just awful 2 years later. Burnt for $54 dollars worth of cool bottle and cork. LOL
Livin ain’t killed me yet, but it’s workin on it!

IMO Jefferson's very small batch is about the best out there in the $50 range. After 25-30 bottles I've yet to have a bad sip.

Ha funny. Good info. Do you shop at the Timmons Markets in Rapid? I was super impressed with the shelves there.
I have not tried Colorado or Wyoming bourbon yet, I've had a couple of HighWest bottles tho. Fine, but I did not think it premium juice. I guess I have a Bourye sitting here unopened. I'd like to try that Midwinter night's dram sometime but never seen it on the shelf. Have not been in Timmons. Mr. Liquor on the west side is good. The liquor store in front of Dakotamart in Lead had a nice selection last time I was there. I tried some Breckenridge, average. Do not prefer Highwest. Have not tried Colorado. Old Elk is very solid.

Commander picked this one up at Costco Friday, very nice. Dunno if you got a Costco where your at, but it’s worth a try. 👊🏻 Tried some I picked up at the Spokane Costco. It has a musky aroma and taste along the lines of a peaty Islay Scotch. Drinkable, but I won’t buy it again.
