They had Elijah Craig 18, but I passed based on recommendations here that it’s over-aged.
Other high-rye options from their tasting serieswere 1792 Full Proof, Angel’s Envy, Blanton’s Gold Edition, Blanton’s Special Reserve, Booker’s Bluegrass, Four Roses Single Barrel, and Old Bones 10 Year. On the high wheat side, they had Garrison Bros. Texas, Old 55, and Willett Pot. Hope I didn’t massively miss out on anything I should have sampled!
Were you over in Europe? Blantons Gold and Blantons Special Reserve are not sold in the USA.... might be worth trying....
