I can see that for sure...again certian McKenna single barrels are just amazing. Problem is they are often close to or over $100 here in Maryland!

Totally agree. I have seen McKenna 10 on the shelves from time to time, always around $100. Always passed, but I have gotten HH BiB for $40ish and was not disappointed.

In my area Heaven Hill price has crept up to about $65-$75, which is where McKenna also sits. I’m going with the 10 year at the same price.

I may have said this already, but I had a HM10 that was “solid but nothing special” for the vast majority of its bottle life, until the last 1/4 of the bottle. I had put it away for a while and when I came back to it, it literally had changed into truly one of the best bourbons I have ever had. I’ve never had a bottle get so much better so drastically. Blew my mind. Made be believe in HM10 again. It went from your typical Heaven Hill classic bourbon profile to tasting like Frappe Freeze Mocha mix with that rich chocolate and coffee. How on earth does that happen lol 😂

@@2TEN90 this was the first bottle of HM10 I have bought in a long time. The last one before this was years ago, and back then I’d only buy a few bottles at a time and cruise through them so it never would have sat long enough to change.

I had that with a few Bottles of Scotch Single Malt. First half of it was almost OK, then forgot it for at least half a Year. As i tried it again it had totally changed in Flavour and Taste. It was an Oxidation over Time because of the fresh Air inside after drinking half of it. I experimented with it. So i took the next „bad after opening“ Bottle and made 2 half Bottles out of it and parked them for a few Months with monthly Opening and blowing fresh Air into it and give it a little Shake and back into Parking Position. The Tasting after 6Months showed my i did right. The Content changed significantly and i poured it back together and had a whole Bottle of really good Whisky instead of regretting the Buy completely😅. (This Procedure works sometimes but not everytime🤷)

For me the HH BIB. It reminds me of the kind of value you USED to get in bourbon. 7 year age statement, 100 proof, and from a major distiller for $45! Hard to beat that.

In upstate NY, HH BiB runs like $45-52 now, but I got a couple for $35 a year or two ago. The HM10 hype put it at like $60-80, but then it is a 10 year. The HM10 was good but nothing special. I really liked the HH BiB, so for that price I'd grab another one of them.

Umm, You yourself mentioned the choice / comparison as if the McKenna was “UPCHARGED” vs the HH BIB being $~$40ish “which would you choose”!? You also mentioned that the McKenna was typically over $100…so yeah with that context then it’s a Dumb AF comparison.
