Highly recommended to all of Whiskey lovers
As a big Teeling fan, I had to put my hands on this one to increase my collection

@scooter Really like the E.C. Toasted Barrel,have heard nothing but great things about the Knob Creek 12 and await your review on The Bookers. Speaking of reviews...Have you tried the Jeffersons/Humidity?
This EC Toasted is a limited release, for the Ryder Cup, and is said to have a different flavor profile than the regular Toasted. The barrels were sourced from Europe, which apparently makes a substantial difference. I'll still be on the lookout for a standard release. I, too, have heard nothing but good about KC12. I have so many bottles, now. Who knows when I'll get to the Booker's. That review may take awhile...
As far as reviews go, since the beginning of November, I have opened 7 new bottles(5 bourbons, 2 ryes), and have had an oz., or two, of each. The Jefferson's Tropics is probably the one I was most impressed with. The nose has hints of cherry, cinnamon, clove, and caramel. Palate hits with the cherry and cinnamon, along with toffee and vanilla. I'd definitely buy it, again...

@Jett129 , I paid $95 for it, and I'd pay it, again. I'd like to say, it should be in the $70 - $90 range. But, in the grand scheme of things, the $90 - $110 premium price point is becoming more prevalent. If you can get it for around $80, you're doing well.
Edit: When it's time to back mine up, I'll definitely be looking for a deal, too...

Never done a hot toddy before, but this ain’t bad!

@WhiskeySandwich , I've been known to enjoy some toddies, on cold winter nights. They're fantastic when you're suffering with a cold, too. They're also a great way to down a bottle of whiskey you're not particularly fond of, as well.
