I had to put the big boy pants on to buy this bottle yesterday. A store in town got a case of Discovery 4 and Fusion 4 and I decided to pull the trigger on Discovery 4 just incase all of the hype was real. Haven't opened it yet, but I have yet to see a bad review from anyone that has actually tried it. A lot of people in the know (ie folks with youtube channels and large social media followings), are saying that this is a competitor for BTAC, which if you know, is a MASSIVE deal since Buffalo Trace pretty much has the "elite" market of the bourbon world cornered with the Antique Collection lineup.
Of course all of the buffalo trace fan boys are all upset that they can't get a hold of this one at MSRP as they wipe their tears with their Blantons. I now only own four bottles of $100+ MSRP value, this being added to the collection for an MSRP of $135, which is the most I have ever spent for MSRP (others are Elijah Craig 18 Year at $150 (spent well over that on secondary), Sam Houston 14 Year at $124, and Nashville Single Barrel Rye at $112)
This is a 100% sourced bottle that was supposedly blended by/selected by the head chef at the Bardstown Distillery. The fine folks over at Bardstown are fully blending right now while their stock matures fully. Before you say, "blended bourbon?" slow your roll and remind yourself that unless you only drink single barrel bourbons, you are drinking blended bourbon. The guys at Bardstown are just sourcing bourbon from different distilleries and finding the perfect recipe to bottle. Rumors are that the three mashbills for this one came from Barton (15 year), Jim Beam, and Wild Turkey The breakdown on this guy goes something like this:
I think I am going to save this bottle for Masters Sunday with the boyz for Baptist Mens Brunch Round 2

Once they have made their mind up, no amount of new information is going to even tempt them to change their mind.

consider something other than what they've convinced themselves of. Facts, stats, professional advice...they will turn it all away.
I genuinely don't think he can handle the actual math here. My 13 yr old gets like this. It's all about YEAH BUT instead of shutting the F up and considering what's in front. All the YEAH BUT #### don't even matter. FOCUS. LISTEN.

the most I've paid for a bottle that I plan on actually opening (have a few that have increased so much I just can't bring myself to do it, plus, I've had them before, so I know what I'm missing/not missing). A CBWS/SCBC guy who I've kinda known/met over the years ended up with a large tax bill this year, and on Monday, made the decision to firesale a whole bunch of stuff on Lowcountry Second Dairy. He listed probably 6-10 bottles at a time, from 4R to BTAC to Bell Meades. Couple steals on 2019 and 2017 M10s, $180 and $200 respectively, that I woulda snapped up had I been quicker. I BIN'd this OF15 within 6-7 minutes of him posting it, and he had multiple other people asking if he had more.
Been coveting this decanter bottle for years.

Great decanter and some quality heaven hill distillate in there. Quite jealous of that pickup... and those M10's, especially the $180 is great for second dairy.

I throw a Daytona 500 party almost every year and charge double for Woodford compared to Jim Beam even though it's just Jim Beam in an old Woodford bottle. Nobody has ever questioned it. Both are even watered down a little. I bet half of those expensive bottle are fake but people just keep buying them up. Rich people have more money than common sense.

in here.
Can you tell us more about your ex gf banging Chad Kelly? Was she your gf at the time and you gave her a pass? Why did you have his socks? Do you still have his socks? Why did ya'll break up? Is she by chance dating Nick Schuessler now? Is she hot? Can you post pigs of her? Did you ever try for a 3 way tween FastChad, ChadKelly, and your ex gf?
Now's your chance to earn your stripes in here. We're counting on you!

Can you tell us more about your ex gf banging Chad Kelly? She hooked up with him after a party when he was at Clemson. Was she your gf at the time and you gave her a pass? No, we didn't start dating until 2018. Why did you have his socks? He left a pair of socks at her place and she just held onto them since she was such a big fan. Do you still have his socks? She probably does. I moved out a month ago. Why did ya'll break up? She had a baby that didn't bare any resemblance to me. Is she by chance dating Nick Schuessler now? Based on appearance of baby, no. Is she hot? She used to be but has packed on some pounds over the years. Can you post pigs of her? I'm guessing the pictures you want would get me banned, so no. Did you ever try for a 3 way tween FastChad, ChadKelly, and your ex gf? Not really my thing. Our 3 ways never included another guy.

And would of course only be asking for tasteful photos.
What do you mean the baby didn’t look like you? Babies generally don’t look like grown adults with Chad Kelly socks.
Appreciate the response, let’s keep the dialogue going. After a bit of initiation you may make a fine member in this forum.

It’s not working out great... but it’s working. I’d suggest, quit trying to be a celebrity, and just be you. Like Aladdin and what not.

But deleted it. I don't want to lose another friend over silly things like money, exercise, or reading comprehension.
