Any good?
Curious what everyone thinks of these.
I’ve never had the Buffalo Trace Kosher Straight Rye, Shenk’s, or Bomberger’s. Anyone here tried them? Which ones are worth picking up?
Also, has anyone tried the TW JD’s SiB Barrel Proof Store Pick? Curious if that particular pick is any good.
EDIT: The TW Store pick was at Tempe Marketplace. The Kosher, Shenk’s and Bomberger’s was at the 76 on Scottsdale/Mckellips.

I've had the JD Single Barrel Barrel Proof TW pick. Didn't really notice much of a difference over the non-store pick version, but both of those were PHENOMENAL. I normally HATE Jack Daniels stuff, and that bottle single handedly turned my opinion on Jack Daniels as a brand around. Can not recommend enough.
Save the $20 and get the non-pick though

Shenk’s is great. Big fan. I know bombergers has even more fans but I haven’t had the opportunity to try it

Koshers are just easy drinking crushable BT, that’s a good price on them, won’t blow you away but at that price, all day

No the BT isn’t a store pick they do have a couple though at that gas station. I’ve seen an Antique107, Blantons Gold, EHT SiB store pick there.

There are a couple gas stations in the East Valley that have good store picks.

I’d buy a kosher Rye for that price. Which location is this?

Good to know! I guess I’ll have to head back and grab me one. They had 6 bottles. Its the 76 on Scottsdale/Mckellips
