    If I had one it would be all yours. Limit was one.

    Looking forward to Prairie Noir Vanilla.

    Was a joke (mostly :grin:) - just based on the reviews thus far, sounds like people are loving it.

    I really enjoyed Vanilla Noir when I had it last year.

    I was just disappointed in the lack of coconut and vanilla. If the label didn't say "coconut and vanilla" I would rate it much higher.

    That Noir is a different story. Hoping to snag a bottle today.

    They have variants that are aged in other types of barrels. What’s a bit frustrating is I don’t think the bottles are different - just different wax. I’ve had a rum barrel version before

    This x 10. I'm f*cking color blind.

    I know white is vanilla, and for a long time that was the only one I'd ever bought. I bought the Evan Williams a few months ago because that was the other one I really wanted to try - found a place that had the name on a label on the shelf in front of each variation.

    If you're willing to hit the city, I'm at Kedzie right now and they appear to have plenty.

    I haven’t had any luck up here...it was out very quickly. As mentioned though they still have it at Kedzie. I picked up some today.
