Probably my favorite thread has been the "Your best Heartbreaker" postings. This is for the opposite of that, whole bottles. I love seeing the rare stuff! Anyone with deep pockets can buy rare stuff, but only dedicated and lucky diggers can actually find it. Show us your best dug bottles. (I'll let you decide how to define that). I know there are diggers who don't want to "publicize" the great stuff they dig, but for those willing to share, LET'S SEE EM!

Your in luck, I think... I just dug a midget lid yesterday, zinc porcelain lined... It's still dirty but whole, not crushed, with just a little flake of an edge. You can have it if you would like it...

Although not rare, this is my favorite dug bottle since moving to california and an almost year long hiatus from digging. I didnt think id be into these western whiskeys until i held this one fresh out of the dirt in my hand.
