tommyboy38 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 IIRC, there will be an 18 yr old released next year.I was thinking they should call it "Barely Legal KSBW" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyboy38 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 That may be true but I don't think that's what influenced my comment.For some reason the idea of an 18 year old whiskey popped into my head the other day along withe the legality thing and then I remembered a mention of their 18 year they'll release next year.Whatevr the case, I look forward to trying some of the JRPS SW 17.

If you want me to pick you up one let me know. We can trade JRPS SW 17 for ER 10/90...somehow that doesn't seem like a fair trade! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hectic1 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I was thinking since there are two different batches has anyone tried both...my bottle is from batch 1 and looking at some pics I see that other members bottles are from batch 2?

OscarV Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Looks like some postal mini bottle swapping is in order.I have some JRPS17yo coming later this month I'll check to see which batch it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whskylvr Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 VeritasIt has hit the distributor inactive file, but not in the active system yet. I expect it to be available in the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin_AZ Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Anyone in AZ find any yet?I've called multiple shops and get the same reply."I'll check with my distributor and get right back to you."They never call back.Give me a break!A lot of us are getting tired of the distributors being in the pockets of the politicians.

B3Nut Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I just stumbled across this thread...oh my. Going to have to siphon off a smidge of the next few gigs...most of that's going to the general fund since we had to get my wife a new car...but I gotta get a bottle of this. This juice sounds soooo tempting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DowntownD Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I sent an email to Castle Brands, asking them if ALL of the bourbon in the Jefferson PS was distilled at Stitzel-Weller. Trey Zoeller quickly wrote me back with this:"That is correct, the bourbon was distilled in November and December of 1991 at Stitzel-Weller. I hope you get a chance to enjoy a bottle."Well, that's good enough for me. It's still an odd choice of words on the label IMO, but I see no reason to now doubt what is in the bottles. Stitzel-Weller bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spun_cookie Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I used a separate method, but got confirmation as well.I believe the wording is for future use. These current bottles are 100% SW, but that does not mean the next rounds (if they make any) have to be.Drink up fellas, and ladies, your drinking history.

Merlin_AZ Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Just found out that Southern Distributors here in AZ has none, so any retail outlet that is supplied by them doesn't have any, and who knows when.Wonderful.Means I might have to get some using "alternative methods."

whskylvr Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 West coast distributors do not have it in stock yet it is on the way. When it is in the inactive file that means it is on its way and waiting for a product number and price. I will post as soon as it hits the active file.

bigtoys Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 figured it'd be here soon. stopped in Binny's Highland Park this evening for Octoberfest beer and checked the bourbon aisle.....there it was..I grabbed the first bottle, but my wife pointed out I should check the numbers (she knows me well) and there was 2112. Grabbed 2122 for a friend (batch 1) can't wait to taste it. I'm on call, so it probably won't be until next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin_AZ Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 bigtoys, nice choice in music.Saw them live in the early '80's in college--unbelievable show.Still waiting to hear from the local retailers on availability ETA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
