Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Any Eagle Rare 10 YO drinkers here??

Stinking state run stores here in Virginny!! Never see it on the shelf, asked about got the 'hunched shoulder' look back.

I is very good.I tried some a fellow brought to deer camp last year.

Just bought a 750ml of Eagle Rare on sale at $22.00. Have not tried it yet but I will this evening.

Gotta love the Campfire!

I picked a bottle up a few months ago at an ABC store in No VA. Don't recall price though.

At that price you got a very good deal on Eagle Rare. Here in Kentucky it retails for about $34. You got it for three bucks less than it's younger brother Buffalo Trace.

Eagle Rare is aged in the lower floors of old brick warehouses and the cool, slow, aging imparts subtle flavor notes to the Bourbon. It along with WL Weller a wheated bourbon, I consider the best values of the Buffalo Trace collection. You can spend more, but these two are as good as they get IMHO.

Yes, I work for Buffalo Trace.

All NOVA stores have it for about 28 bucks. They also have the big jugs. If it's not in your local store just have the clerk transfer it from another store. It will be there by the following Tuesday. My local store has cases. That also have Elmer T. Lee.

BTW nice thing about VA state run stores is they do not jack up the prices. In GA and SC I've seen it for as high as 60 bucks. Got the Elijah Craig barrel strength in VA for 45 bucks. $120 elsewhere.

ER is part of the Buffalo Trace Distillery distribution network.

Man oh man....do I have a lot of questions for you!!

ER is not distributed by Buffalo Trace, it is MADE by Buffalo Trace. I see the barrels everyday.

Sorry to offend....that's pretty much what I meant:

Eagle Rare is a brand of bourbon whiskey distilled and distributed by the Buffalo Trace Distillery.

Isn't that the truth! I'll start with one: for someone who has shown to prefer the rye bourbons (ex: Basil Hayden) what others would you recommend?

prm get your name on your local store's list for the upcoming Rye/Bourbon releases:

Black Maple Hill
Sazerac Rye 18 Year
Mitcher
Willet
Whistlepig
Rittenhouse
Bulliet
EH Taylor
Mastersons
Angel's Envy
Jefferson

Again, VA stores have ET Lee and ER in plentiful supplies

Just to name a few

If you start falling down, change to Weller&Weller (90 proof).

Eagle Rare 10 year old in my glass on the left arm of the sofa as I type. The bottles that we get here are very tall and slim

Tried out my Eagle Rare this evening.
It is very smooth, with a lot of flavor.

Thanks for the introduction guys. The Campfire scores again!

I may have to buy a few more bottles since they are on sale in Montgomery County, MD. Not too many bargains here.

Glass to my right while watching MNF. Not bad!

I can't believe you're not watching Dancing With The Stars!

KYWII, If you could find a way to bring a couple bottles of that 23 year old Pappy up to Michigan, I'd be more than happy to set you up with plenty of powder, primers, and bullets!

You want the 15 yr. JC 2009 and before. Trust me.

JC 2009? I'm not familiar with that one.

Last year, the bartender at an establishment I frequent told me he found this bottle of 23yr old Pappy in the store room that had been forgotten about. Said the thought it had been sitting there for probably five years. He asked if I would like it opened! It was stunning.
