Im pretty lucky that within about a 20-30min drive I can hit several total wines, twin liquors, and specs. I shy away from anything else simply because i refuse to buy into the grey market mark up on allocated stuff. So i stick to locations are are price controlled. Every now and then I’ll dip into a random shop, but as soon as they say “yea that eagle rare is $99 and the Blanton is $170” they get the ol number one salute and out the door i go.

Cool! I agree 100%.. At least I do have a small local Mom & Pop Liqor store that only gets a few bottles of anything from buffalo trace every few months and I get a phone call for first dibbs... I won't pay higher than MSRP... Price Gougers can Kiss my ASS!

I don't always use those stainless steel cubes, but I like them with the higher proof. They work well, just to give it a mild chill.

I'm not an ice and bourbon type, cause I only like the first few sips and then it tastes watered down.

I don't like my bourbon watered down either... but a little water or ice can release more flavors from certain spirits. I must live under a rock... Didn't know they made food grade stainless steel ice cubes for chillin whiskey... One search on Amazon and wow!

Lol, I think that's where I got these. They sit in my freezer in a little plastic container with a tweezers. Two of them work perfect in the bottom of the glencarin, cause they don't slide out when tip the glass.

I even throw them in a beer glass when it isn't quite cold enough. They have been perfect!

Cool! I'm searching for a good set now. Great Idea... We have all had that cold beer get warm on us and it ain't right just tossing it! I don't believe in alcohol abuse!
