Started having a glass or two after work each day and realized I was drinking about a bottle of week. I can't afford that and promptly stopped having nightly whiskey. Now, a bottle lasts me a month or two.

Too many bottles of various kinds of world whiskies open at any given time for me to be able to accurately track my Bourbon consumption rate.

That said, I'll usually have anywhere between a ½-dozen to a dozen Bourbons on tap.

I still have about a third of a bottle of whiskey left from our wedding. That was 1984.

I think this is where I'm at. I just got into Bourbons but a bottle a week is getting a little pricey especially at $25 a bottle. Time to slow it down a little lol my wife will b happy too

How long my bottle of bourbon lasts depends on how many dishes I cook that require bourbon. I don't drink the stuff.

I've been holding off a 1/4 bottle of Blanton's for about 3 years now. It was a gift from a law firm I worked at for several years and I just hate to see it go.

My mixing bourbon is between 17 and 20$ per 1.75 liter bottle here in Georgia. My wife drinks Bud Select 55, and that's 22$ for 30 cans.

My bourbon lasts longer than 30 cans of beer!

What is it?

When we last visited my in laws my MIL said "I got all this old liquor from your wedding I was going to toss. Go through it"

This is some of what I found





The Old Fitz from '80 is Stitzel Weller juice. The same juice found in Pappy
