Ahhhg, help me out BEM!

So this is what I bought last week, thinking it was the good stuff:






But it wasn't good; rather, it wasn't smooth, not like the Old Charter BEM introduced last summer. Was this it?

Perhaps the Old Charter he brought was a super expensive version of the swill you bought?

The second one, the Proprietor's Reserve, is what you want.

The one on top is crap. However, I have no idea where to find the good OC. They don't seem to have it at LeNell's anymore, but we will check when QC comes to visit.

I'm shocked out how completely different they are. There is no one quality that both share, save the name. Thanks for looking. If you reserve me a Reserve, I'll pay you back!

Good bourbon is never as old as that crap was. It goes bad too fast--that's why it's not "aged" the same way scotch is.
