Is so much better than the run of the mill, note I it very hot in the proof range, I served over 2 rocks and it is very nice. I would say up there with all the other $50 range Bourbon's

That is a excellent bourbon.

One of my kids got me some bourbon from Cleveland Whiskey.

Inspired by growing global demand for delicious bourbon, but confounded by the fact that it "takes so long to make," distiller Tom Lix has customized a new whiskey-aging process that speeds up that pesky many-years-in-a-barrel timeline that's held back both bourbons and monkeys for so long. In fact, Lix has the aging process down to a matter of days -- and he's implementing it at his Ohio-based Cleveland Whiskey distillery.

Interesting concept.

My wife bought me a bottle of Blanton's. I am only 1 horse from completing my set. She also got me some round ice molds.

Nice to see another stereo, music, and bourbon fan close by. Since I haven't tried or read anything about Cleveland's products, I am looking forward to your comments.

I am looking for the "T" to complete mine. Are you planning to display them? If so, are you familiar with mounting/displaying them on a a Blanton's barrel slat?



Slats can be purchased at their distiller (Buffalo Trace Distillery).... Just passing along in case you're interested.

My local bar told me that you can send the horses to the distiller and they'll mount them for you. Not sure if this is true, but they do sell a large amount of Blanton's and have a mounted set.

Thumbs up to the Booker's as well. It's got a bite, but that's a nice bourbon.

I am, thanks. Instead of buying one though I made a display out of an old bookers whisky box

Tell me more about this horse thing? How many? How to tell the difference's?

One horse for each letter in "Blantons". You can tell the difference by the letter on each one, the two "N" horses are different too.

On the back leg of the horse in a circle right? If so, I have an N. Thanks.

Yap that's it. There is a B-L-A-N-T-O-N-S they are made randomly so you can just look at different stores or call in advance to try and find the one you need. If this is your first bottle you've got some drinking to do
