Note GPT-5's subtle mouthfeel reminiscent of cranberries with a touch of bourbon.
- __loam 1y agoEvery bourbon tastes the same unless it's Weller, King's County Peated, or Pappy (or Jim Beam for the wrong reasons lol)
- alephnerd 1y agoTbh, a mid-shelf Four Roses gets you 90% of the way to a upper shelf Weller.
- __loam 1y agoI'm being hyperbolic but yeah four roses is probably the best deal next to Buffalo trace. All their stuff is fairly priced. If you want something like Weller though, you should get another wheated bourbon like Maker's Mark French oaked.
- alephnerd 1y agoBuffalo trace is ridiculously overpriced nowadays. Good bourbon, but def not worth $35-40 for 750ml. > you should get another wheated bourbon like Maker's Mark French oaked I agree. I've found Maker Mark products to be a great bang for your buck quality wise and flavor wise as well.
- __loam 1y agoIf you can find Buffalo Trace for msrp which is $20-30, it's a good deal. I think the bourbon "market" kind of popped recently so finding things has been getting a little easier.
- alephnerd 1y agoYep! I agree! At MSRP BT is a great buy. > I think the bourbon "market" kind of popped recently It def did. The overproduction that was invested in during the peak of the COVID collector boom is coming into markets now. I think we'll see some well priced age stated products in the next 3-4 years based on by acquaintances in the space. Ofc, the elephant in the room is consolidation - everyone wants to copy the LVMH model (and they say Europeans are ethical elves who never use underhanded mopolistic and market making behavior to corner markets /s).
- alephnerd 1y agoExplains why I find AGI fundamentalists similar to tater heads. /s (Not to undermine progress in the foundational model space, but there is a lack of appreciation for the democratization of domain specific models amongst HNers).
