hectic1 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 While wrapping the rest of the Christmas gifts I look the liberty to taste test some Willett Hi Time Cellars 6yr, Toddy's Willett 10yr Purple Wax, and some Old Fitz BIB DSP 16/24. The Toddy's Purple Wax was the winner of the evening...very nice selection by the crew in Bardstown! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff and only 48 bottles from what Dougdog calls a "short" barrel adds some allure.While watching my wife and daughter wrap presents :grin: I started with Old Fitz BIB from '84, then on to JDSB and a very small ending taste of a private bottling of 4R-OESO. The JDSB was the last 45ml of a bottle I've had open for over a year and its change of pace profile was what I needed, at least for this one night. Would consider another if I could get it at the $30 I paid for this now empty one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moretorque05 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 @markedwards ... I've been eyeing that but always skip over it. I may have to go for it! Did you see the natgeo show on it?I just opened a bottle of Rays 50th Anniversary Bourbon. A local liquor store had 150 bottles produced for them by Great Lakes Distillery in Milwaukee, WI. It is surprisingly good for a light colored 80 proof. I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see the natgeo show on it?No, I missed the show, but have seen lots of the news items about it. I bought it out of curiosity and because the presentation was so well done.This was a good (not great) scotch, and was very pleasant, but a bit delicate and not particularly complex. This is more a $60 scotch than a $150 scotch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Blacksmith Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Got to thinking today that the new Col EH Taylor Sour Mash was very similar to my handle of old ER 101, so I did a side by side.First time I've really smelled butterscotch on the nose, about 5-10 min into the pour, ER had it more than the EHT. ER was sweeter, less burn, not as complex but that made it easier to drink.EHT was a bit bitter sweet, had a bit of burn, but tasted less sweet and more balanced than the ER. I enjoyed them both but I think I've come to the conclusion that CEHTSM is not worth the $75 they charge for it. $50 probably. But I also paid $40 for this handle of ER 101!
