Finally picked up a Blantons 750 bourbon today for under $100. I don't drink hard liquor, but I wanted this for maybe the best-looking bottle available for my display.
My brother-in-law brought over a bottle of Blantons 3 or 4 years ago. It is indeed a beautiful bottle but also one of the best bourbons that I've had the pleasure to try.

Have to say I’m a little jealous. I don’t think there’s distribution for Blanton here. I can find Buffalo trace(who makes Blantons) but not in every store. Good choice. It’s a great looking bottle.
 
After years of buying what amounts to disposable garden hose guns, I splashed out and bought me one of these Eley. versions. I do a lot of gardening. While I prefer a shower wand for watering plants, this works for other tasks like washing the truck and some other garden needs like washing all the containers I have. Very well made.

Just won the Ohio liquor lottery hear got a Blanton single barrel out of it . Iam slowly collecting all the horse stoppers . It is a good pour . Was at the distillery last spring what a great time really cool tours too I highly recommend .
 
I just received a new replacement 14oz, SS Weto coffee mug, with a nice tapered handle, off ebay. Came with 2 lid covers, with very secure fit. Dishwasher safe, except lid.

Thanks, nice to know but I just bought it for display, I will open it for guests if they want a taste. :)

I was very surprised that my local small liquor store had it for 90 dollars. And it might be the best-looking bottle in my collection. I've wanted one of these for a while but probably won't ever open it.

slowly getting each bottle I’ve got the first two so far but you can buy them at the distillery if you like . If you do have the whole set and send in the toppers they will mount them on a display on a stave from a barrel and they have a round one that lets you display them and if you turn the base it looks like the horses are running it’s really cool to see .

Please share a picture of the bottle. Next best thing to a pour.

BTW, that is letter O horse for those that follow the horse letters. Doesn't matter to me since I don't drink bourbon and the bottle is for display, I probably won't ever buy another bottle of Blantons.

I think that would be great time. Don’t have anything cool like that here. Time for a road trip I guess!

It’s about a 5 hour drive from me but it’s very cool and if you go take at least 3 days to see the big distillery’s then tons of booze. My son and I did 5 tasting one day we were very happy to oblige the offering’s from the tours lol . 3 days hammered by noon !

Got the Epson 5050ub hooked up. It's needs some tweaks, a 4k HDMI cables, and maybe new receiver ( hopefully not). My receiver passes the signal when it's off. Will it pass 4k?
