Just finished off my bottle of Eagle Rare SB 10.

Guess what I was doing last night? ER-10 (2004 case lot). The bottle I have is soooo good, we're talking good with a capital "G"

I immediately dropped half the bottle into an ER-10 split (375ml) to preserve the second half. The stuff is to die for... texture? '

Consider the best bottle of JDSB (caramel style) you ever had, and this bottle of ER-10 rivals it for $20 less. Not that I want to compare apples to oranges, but the caramel and texture in this particular bottle of ER10 reminds of an R-17 bottling of JDSB I had this past October.

Incredible... BB

An Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye 13 (btl# 1091) took the hit last night. Definately SW, definately delish.

Just finished a bottle of Weller 12. I will be picking up a handle to replace it shortly.

a bottle of Old Crow bit the dust today... it was a sad moment... Nothing knowing that the best of the 60s is one less than the day before...

Finished a Binny's Weller 12 tonight. Gone but not forgotten. Joe

Ok, so what's your favorite cork-top?!? Me: JDSB. They really go the gamut with the embossing and all. Deluxe, quality cork too... I like the wood stoppers like WTKS & JDSB. The RHF stopper is quite the feat, rounded and very snug to fit. Some the EWSB's don't seem to lock in too tight, too much air.

Mine is the pewter WTKS or WT Japan Tribute. They are the same in look and design, but the Tribute is gold in color. Great hand grab and easy to get in and out.

May be a Heaven Hill problem -- lots of bad EC12 corks out there. I really like the current Rare Breed cork with the turkey routed out -- that's pretty cool. I also like the standard Buffalo Trace corks with the ribbed wood (Saz Jr, BT, ER, BTAC, etc.)-- simple & elegant (although the gold & silver markings do tend to rub off).
