the Old 8 yr WT Handles (6 sided) are nice and I concure with the Baby Saz bottle... the easiest to store on a shelf are the Weller Centennial Bottles... I have concidered keeping them when empty and using them for all of my bourbons and just "wet" the label off and put it on the square bottle...

The Dickel (Star Trek) bottle is groovy as well

My taste runs to clean, simple design so I like the Van Winkle and BTAC bottles, as well as the Beam (rī)¹ bottle.

I like the Van Winkle

And when you consider whats in the bottle than that Van Winkle Lot B wins hands down,..... really put your hands down,.... no, no, no you Sir put your hands down,....now the rest of you put your hands up.

OK,.... I am done,....

for all that simple harsh wild west peacocking, the bulleit bottle is surpassed by the simple generic gotham elegance of the those tall BTAC bottles...stagg, handy, eagle...yep, them bottles!

I like the old-school look of the long-neck bottles of Dickel No. 12 and Baby Saz. I actually find these easier to pour without spilling as well.

Of the bottles currently available the best looking ones are the BTAC bottles, the tall Van Winkle bottles (PVW, VWSR12, VWFRR) but the nicest looking bottle I've ever seen was the Diamond Decanter from Old Fitzgerald. There is a picture of it in this thread, post #1, second bottle from the right.

That's why I (unlike some others here) have never liked the OFBB bottle. (The liquid inside is something else.) Too fussy and difficult to handle. And damn hard to fit into a brown paper bag or take a pull right from the bottle when a glass isn't readily available... :lol: :lol: :lol:
