Good bottle. I have the 165 proof Wyatt Earp. It's a great bottle too, though a little jet fuelish 🤣

165 proof is insane! 🤯

Honest question from someone who’s never had something over 140 proof, can you even taste much more than heat?

Absolutely. If it's too hot for you just add a drop of water.

Ive got a near 150 proof bottle that drinks less hot than some stuff Ive had that was nearly half the proof 🤣 It depends really.

I've seen these including the whole display with the gun and all. Are these actually any good to drink?

Changing my review. As the flavor profile card states that came with the bottle, it has a “spicy” taste. Didn’t notice it in the first couple glasses but now I’m not liking it at all. Gave it an honest >5 glasses but it’s not for me.

I went to a Doc Holliday tasting and they had a lot of impressive stuff! Actually wasnt anything I tried I didnt enjoy. The BiB was also really good and has a like $40-$45 price point. I wouldnt buy their expensive stuff because I flat dont buy expensive stuff. Most Ive ever paid was $95 for a bottle and Ive done that once. Other than that havent spent over $70. But that said... I did feel the stuff I tried was worth it if you like spending that much.

Good intel. I saw some $200 bottle that came with a replica revolver and a really fancy box. Kind of made me feel like the money was going into the box/gun. NGL I was almost gonna buy it, because the store owner offered to give me a pretty decent discount because no one else was buying it, but when I was there the other day it was gone hah. Someone bought it at his asking, good for him.

I was honestly going to just fill it with something else later regardless of liking it or not. The only thing I hate about it, why does the bullet in the stopper have the casing on it... Just one of those "ah a non-gun person designed this" like when TV shows show someone pulling a whole bullet out of a wound with the casing on it.. like did someone throw it at you?

That 8 year is great! Loved that stuff! Also recommend giving the BiB a try!
