BHC Dusty Score

[funknik]

Went and got the Old Charter Prop I chased down about four weeks ago...was still there...whew! Don't really know anything about it...anybody want to fill me in? Now I have this and 2 VSOFs bunkered.

Let's see....did a little homework....OCPR looks like BT juice? The label says Louisville and the bottle says '95' on the bottom. The VSOF currently in production is made by HH, but I don't think this stuff is, right -- no date on the bottom of this one? Saw pictures of the current bottling and the top was different....says VSOF all over it. Label on these 3 says Louisville, but current bottling says Bardstown, no? Anyway, lots of questions...I have read mixed reviews about the OCPR, but had to pick it up due to its obscurity, especially around here....next stop is to try and hunt down some Weller Centennial...there must be one in some hole-in-the-wall liquor store somewhere in the state of Maine.....Right?

The OCPR that you got is referred to as the "slope shoulder" bottle distilled and bottled in Louisville.
The later one was shaped like the Weller Centennial.
You scored one hell of a good bottle of whiskey.

Sweet! I was hoping someone would say that! It wasn't easy to track down.

That OCPR is a gem. Drink it in good health.

How were the prices? If you don't mind me asking.

Off topic question here, how does the taste of the BHC VSOF compare to today's VSOF?

I was wondering this also, haven't seen any of the HH bottles around. To answer Jeff's question...$33 for the VSOF & $35 for the OCPR.
