Astor Wines Willett Private selections

[jakew]

Hi guys,

I've been looking around for info without much luck. Does anyone have any opinions on Astor Wines (NYC) private selections?

They just got in a 9 year and 18 year selection of Willett Bourbon for $60 and $130 respectively. I've not seen any comments on their selections and know that Willett Bourbons have mixed reviews, some great and others not so much.

I can't seem to find any more information about these bottlings, anything else would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Not to hi-jack your thread but Park Ave liquors also has a private selection of the 9 yr and figured that anyone you had experience with Astor's private selections would probably have tried park ave's as well and maybe wouldn't mind sharing those thoughts as well.

Thanks!

jakew, if no one else responds, maybe we'll have to meet up and do a side by side comparison

I don't know the exact proof but I believe it was just around 129.
