They are all temporary releases long time ago. Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 These are big collector's items found in better bunkers worldwide.I did once acquire a bottle (the doughnut one) of the WT KY Legend SB, and man oh man was it great. One of the top 5 best whiskeys I've ever had. Fantastic whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixbonz Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 i agree with the legend sb being in my top 5, and i haven't even cracked the 17 year yet. the hourglass bottles are date stamped 1993 and 1995, but there is no such info on the legend sb or the 17yr. would love to know when they were released if anyone knows. fixbonz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightBoston Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I've sampled the WT 17yo in Japan -- very impressive and not too woody. I thought it was an overseas-only expression. Googling around, it seems to have been released around 2002, making it mid-80's distillate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
