I was in DC for work last week and the prices are actually pretty good. I was able to find a couple bottles of Eagle Rare 10 and one bottle of Eagle 17!

What was the sticker on that 17 if you don't mind my asking? I see it on the shelves in a lot of stores that I label "museums" as they are priced to stay on the shelf until they are antiques.

Paid $260 for it. I met a gal on Instagram that use to work for Buffalo trace and met up with her in DC. I got the Eagle 17 from her and two bottles of the 10 years at a local shop for $69 each. I also gave her some elk pepperoni
I've seen the 17 on shelves for over $1500 a bottle?!?!

The prices on certain bourbons is out of control. Eagle 10 in DE is as high as $300 a bottle, same with Weller 12. My brother just got an eagle 10 in WA for $79 a bottle and here is PA it's impossible to find, at least for me.
I'm just an occasional whiskey sipper. The four roses fills my bill just fines, smoooth down the pipe and no recoil. I am not particularly worried about velocity, has no fouling tendency, and components are readily available. enjoy live.

That's a great buy at $260! I dropped $390 for my 2022 George T Stagg, but like you say, some places are astronomical at 1500+. I have a honey hole that is a gas station in rural Missouri where I find gems at MSRP constantly, not BTAC level, but allocated nonetheless….I love hunting bourbon in addition to all Gods creatures He put here for us.

How is that Woodford? I've never had it. I reached back out to her to see about picking up a couple more of the Eagle 17. One of my favorites is Weller 12 but that one is next to impossible to find as well.

A bit disappointing to be honest. Most of the masters collections are great, but a few miss the mark. This one could blend in with the regular old forrester line of products seamlessly and not the ones identified by a year. You win some and you lose some I suppose. I did get a blind pour from the wife, after sensing my dissatisfaction, it was Old Kirk and it was phenomenal!
Went to get a case of my wife's favorite wine that just got in, and my friend offered these to me. Couldn't pass them up! He's still searching for a CYPB for me…
