I have a decent sized stash of ND OGD BIB which I really love, but I recently picked up a liter of the current stuff (encouraged by Smokinjoe singing the praises of 114 and Josh's Sipology review) and was I reminded of how good it is. It reminds me a bit of RittBIB: just really solid whiskey, pretty sweet, but it's kept in check by the spice. At about $20 flat for a liter, you can't really do much better than that.

2-2-1 vatting of OWA,V17 and WLW'11,pretty incredible stuff for my second attempt at this sort of thing.I felt the ratio was so spot on I wouldn't change a thing,everything seems to compliment one another as far as proof,age and vibrancy.

Good stuff, but it was the only Turkey of the night and I haven't drank much WT in the past year so it's hard for me to say in which way it is similar or differs from their other offerings. I'm going to buy 50ml bottles of Rare Breed and 101 for comparison and revisit this one.

2011 GTS. The flavors are just amazing. Worth the chase.
