Dodo Whiskeys

[timd]

I'd bet money that once Ritt BIB switches to the new juice, that what's on the shelves now will become highly coveted and skyrocket in price. What we pay around $20 for will likely be a "steal" at $40+ on fleabay.

Not that the new release will be bad - but it will be different. Almost has to be.

Just like the BT juice in Pappy 15 isn't bad (some say it's great...), but it's not the same as it was, and makes the 2009 and earlier bottlings become collectors items. Pappy 20 & 23 will follow suit in the coming years.

I'd expect that Ritt BIB will be the "next big thing" to become a dodo and be coveted and bunkered (if you don't already...)

What is the agreed upon date that S-W ceased production? I have heard conflicting years, believe it is right at 1992, can anyone confirm or deny??

Depends on your definition of when SW shut down. Did it shut down when the Van Winkles sold it or when it changed hands again or when it changed names or changed owner & names again or when it quit distilling or when it quit bottling? You're in the business what is their take on the answer?

Yes, it's S-W whiskey. $100 is more than fair these days. If you want it, you should buy it now.

what joe said. $100 is original msrp.

I think I'll need to grab a case the next time it gets released.
