BunkerBooze Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I have one bottle from batch #2 and one from from batch #3. I noticed that the corks from the two batches are different material. On batch #2, the cork looks like your traditional standard cork, while batch #3, the cork material looks and feels like some type of synthetic (batch #2 seems porous and batch #3 is not).Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Special Reserve Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I'm ok with synthetic corks provided that they stand the test of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 My Batch 2 has real genuwine cork. Since the others are synthetic, that makes mine more rare and more valuable, doesn't it?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
