Joshua Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Had some Booker's tonight at a local bar. I found it lacking flavor for that proof, boring finish, no real personality and character. Not /bad/ but for that price, I find Stagg and WLW far far superior, with Rare Breed and OGD114 being better and much cheaper for the higher proof bourbons.

nor02lei Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I did have Mellow corn and OGD 114 before dinner yesterday. Stagg 2008 and fernet branca after (the later is 50% for taste and 50 % for medicine).Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesW Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 WT 101, Wathens, and now more Wathens. Something about the Wathens that I really enjoy. Sweet on the entry and then spicy finish. I'm verily impressed. I think this one will rise in price quickly once it catches on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3Nut Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Had a little swig of OGD BIB awhile ago, now having a bit of WT101. I gotta say, WT101 is mighty hard to beat for an everyday go-to bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theDon Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Had a little swig of OGD BIB awhile ago, now having a bit of WT101. I gotta say, WT101 is mighty hard to beat for an everyday go-to bottle.I can beat it. Tom Moore BIB. Lots of cherry cordial and ripe fruit flavor. I have been drinking it for a couple years now. $18.99 for a 1.75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3Nut Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Hmm, never seen that around here. It sounds delicious. I'll keep the eyes peeled. Taking a break from yardwork (took the week off to work around the house...I'm so busy otherwise everything piles up!) with a shot of OGD BIB and a tall glass of ice water. Bourbon neat with an ice water back...life is gooooood! :cool: I'm seriously digging OGD BIB @ 14.99/750ml... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nor02lei Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Yesterday I had Dickel 8 before dinner. As I wasn’t sure what to drink with the blueberry cake for dessert I did try both Dickel 12 and WT 8. The Turkey turned out best!Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been drinking it for a couple years now. $18.99 for a 1.75.Never seen that myself. I have to agree with B3Nut that the WT101 is an outstanding everyday pour. WT has done a great job of mass producing a high quality upper shelf bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B3Nut Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 In honor of Elmer T. Lee's upcoming 90th I thought I'd have a couple pours of the two BT bourbons I have in the house. I started with ETL which was as always wonderful and am finishing off with some Blantons. A mighty tasty evening. Cheers to Mr. Lee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nor02lei Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Dickel 8 again before dinner yesterday. After dinner I did pick up a WTRR 101 from my bunker. It was quit a wile since I had that one last. It was good as hell, even better than I did remember. I had several glasses including one with blueberry cake and ice-cream witch turned out even better than the 8 years I had with the same dessert the day before. As I only have 2 or 3 bottles left in my bunker I did decide to make a try to find some in cyberspace. We will se if I do succeed as it is basically sold out.Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggilbertva Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I've been mixing it up while on vacation. I have enjoyed some WT101 and THH (08) over a couple of evenings. In addition, mixed drinks and beer have kept me busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nor02lei Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I did have a dusty Kentucky gentleman bottled 1970 before outdoor grilling yesterday. It was surprisingly sweet and chewy for the low proof and had real nice vanilla and fruit character. It reminded me a little of WT 101 from the same time epoch despite only 86 proof. To the grilled banana with hazelnut ice cream and chocolate souse I had JDSS witch was an excellent combination. Well inside again I did round up the evening with a glass of WTRR 101.
