Finished off a number in the last couple weeks...WLW 09, ER17 08, Pappy 15 2008, OGD BIB 56-62, ORVW 10/107 "C" bottle, and a OGD 86 1989.

Knocked off an ER 10/90 just now and as CaptainQ said it got better as the bottle got below 1/2 and sat for a while, this last Glencain full is really hitting the spot.

Did you save that OGD decanter? It's kind of cool in an old fashioned type of way.

Finished a bottle of Woodford Reserve last night, marked Batch 08 with Lincoln Henderson's signature. I received this as a gift in 2004 from my sister, who had kept it unopened for, I suppose, a few years. I didn't crack the seal until last year.

Any idea when this was produced? I'm guessing that this was 100% Old Forester stock, as it tasted quite a bit better than their current bottlings. The color seemed a good bit darker, also.

My guess would be mid to late 90s. I've never had a bottle of Woodford from that era, but I would really like to find one and compare it to the later batches mixed with bourbon from L&G.

An 08 bottling of Wathen's SB which through its long life always resembled to me, what EC 12 would be if it was EC 8.

The wife finished the last pour of a FR1B. She told me she prefers the FRsmB, so time to head to the bunker to pull one out.

Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve hit the bin last night. At first I was unimpressed, but by the time this one died, there was already another on the shelf. I like it.

Finished off a 200ml of ND OGD 86 from 1991 last night...IMO this stuff is better then any current OGD being produced...they just don't make it like they used to. :rolleyes:

A "1 Litre" and "Aged 8 Years" WT 101 meant for Japanese export but somehow sitting on a store shelf in suburban Chicago. Honestly, I blind tasted this several times against our no age WT and couldn't tell a difference but maybe I've sucked on too many lead pencils :lol: . Old No. 8 brand WT from 1993 still a whole lot better.

A friend came over last night and a bottle of Four Roses Yellow and a bottle of Buffalo Trace hit the bin.

Vintage 23 Rye. I have a replacement en-rout.

So you enjoyed it then? I have a 21 yr that I am enjoying, and I found a stash of another 21 ($70) and a 23 ($105). Thinking about the 23.

I am with you on this one, I wasn't into my first several pours. More then halfway through the bottle now, and I am enjoying this bottle very much.
