Here's where we can mourn the loss of a bottle, either a favorite or something that you were happy to get out of the way to make room for another.
No matter what, we're here for you. :cool:
I wrung out the last of an EC12 last night after watching basketball all day. It will definitely be replaced.
Drained a PS 13 yo Willett SB last night. Always sad to see a barrel-strength bottle go.
I killed a bottle of Blanton's the other night
Elmer T. Lee bit the dust during Sunday's tournament games, following my beloved Yellow Jackets........
:(
A Weller Special Reserve, but I've already christened its replacement.
Knocked off my worst bottle of ORVW 10/107 to date. It was medicinal from the start and only the last few pours resembled this fine whiskey at all. I have another 3 bunkered from the same store and I fear opening any more. Good Riddance!
Wow! Sorry to hear about this. What release do you think these bottles are from?Quote:

I'm hoping it was just that bottle :(
I drained the last bit of Old Weller Antique 107. This was a 2006 bottling. It was intense. Every sip was an explosion of dark brown sugar, oak-n-smoke, black pepper and all spice. I also detected fragments of buttered cinnamon toast and vanilla. I thought there might be a bit of menthol in the the finish along with some big bite of oak.
Unfortunately, it's not sold in my neck of the woods so I'll have to pack up and head to another state and nose around for it if I want to try another bottle.
Said farewell to a WT Tradition. Sigh, to the bunker for another.
