MissingKY Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Right now I've probably got a few too many open, and most are dusties:Old Weller Antique from around 1991Weller Centennial (Louisville label/BHC)OCPR (BHC)Old Charter 10 (Louisville label - I don't get this whiskey at all. It tastes pretty good, but it smells terrible, sort of like hay that's started to rot. Putting the glass to my mouth is somewhat traumatic. But again, it's really quite tasty once it gets in my mouth.)VOB BIBOld Heaven Hill BIB NASND-era Old Taylor 6/86ND-era Old Taylor 6/80ND-era Old Taylor BIBNoah's MillOld Forester BIB (dimpled bottle from the late 80's)Old Forester 86 (late 70's, I think)Old Fitz BIB from around 1981 (Thanks again, Greg!)Beam Black circa ~1979Antique from Athertonville, 6/80 from the 80sOld PogueWoodfordWT RR101WTKSWT RyeWT 8-year (Delicious, but the bottle confuses me: it's a liter in the current export trade dress, with Japanese writing on the back, but I bought it in a dinky little Chicago liquor store. No idea how it got there.)Yellowstone 86 proof from Louisville Pikesville RyeMellow Corn BIBThat's way too many open bottles...I'll consider this thread an intervention that I need to start knocking some of them off.

MissingKY Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I've read the old Bernheim plant had notorious quality control control in the fermentation, to the point they rebuilt the distillery.The description you give is pretty familiar. I've usually had good luck with Charter, but very hit and miss with Harper. It's a crap shoot.Sounds like you've got some good cookin' bourbon to me.Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to go to Bardstown for the Sampler. Party and Joe's house!!!:crazy: Um...well...it's now 82. Just opened an OGD 114. Kick, you still need to get to Bardstown. They'll be 82 bourbons on that Gazebo table that you've never even heard of!! It's the most amazing thing you've ever seen. 82 is a fair amount, but I know there are open bars striding along SB.com that dwarf that. There's one in New Hope that would make you faint!! I about did when I saw it. Then, there's the ones in Houston, Louisville/NYC/Shenzhen, Baldwin, Nashville...Never seen these, but I can imagine.But, if there's no place else to go, I'll host the party!!

I am more than willing to do a road trip comparison of these bars to determine which are truly up to par. Just let me know what days* would be best.*Note: Bars featuring at least 10 untried bourbons must provide at least an 8 hour lay over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I fear to open too many.....not enough space and I am too good at hiding things from myself. No telling what will be found around the house someday when I am gone.If by chance the bunker ever goes belly up, I do have cousins in GA that I could tell the wife I am going to visit at any point in time you are open for company!

Alas, I have only 1 bottle left of that delicious juice, as the last bottle met it's demise in Bardstown. Killed by the Great Dane with a record toss of 23'-7"!!...:cry: My last bottle will remain untapped. Only to be opened when proper guests come to visit.

Joe, I was thinking of deviating my route to go through Atlanta when I saw your list of open bottles. But your comment about Bourbon Supreme tells me to take the direct route. You're a great guy and I'd love to visit, but not if I have to drink cow piss or Bourbon Supreme! Guess I'll just wait and tilt a glass with you In Bardstown.
