This from the Whiskey Tasting Federation, or WTF? for short. As the founding member of WTF?, I'd like to give credit where credit is due. I nominate: High West Double Rye

Its not bad enough that they put out such a nasty tasting whiskey, oh no, they have the gall to gouge you on price to boot.
At $34 per 750ml, this may be the worst value in whiskey ever!

Hey, High West. :usuck:

................and on the positive side of the ledger. I put forth my vote, for best whiskey value, period.

El Jefe...nice. I like it! I still gotta find some of the ODG 114, but don't award the blue ribbon in the value category until you've tried the Russell's Reserve.

A year or so ago I would have given the value award to Elijah Craig. But its price has steadily risen and is now pushing $30. I figure another 12 months of pressure will see it top $30.

Oh hell yeah!

See, out here in fumbuc, I never see the EC-18 or anything from Blanton's.

Theres also a barrel proof Elijah Craig I'd love to try.
