Picked up the new Buffalo Trace x Chris Stapleton collab - not much flavor and rather dull compared to the rest of the BT lineup. Smooth and will probably keep some on the shelf for non-bourbon drinkers, but definitely don't pay over retail for this one.

Did a blind taste test with gf's Japanese whiskeys.

Without an ice cube:
- Toki was the smoothest, sweetest. Favorite without ice.
- Hibiki Harmony was the most interesting. Oakey. Not as smooth, but enjoyable.
- Shibui 10 was kind of... glue flavor? Yuck.

With an ice cube:
- Toki was pretty much as before.
- Hibiki Harmony became a lot smoother, still oakey. Great, better than Toki.
- Shibui 10 really shone with a lot of depth of flavor. Glue flavor disappeared, too. Favorite with ice.

Blue Label worth it at this price? I know the consensus with the usual $230 or whatever it's just not up to par, but this is way less 🤷‍♂️

Grabbed this in France for €54. Can’t find it in the states without a crazy markup.

Does anyone have an ice stamp for a round cube? Does it work, or do you find the cube (and imprinted image) rolls in the glass?
