Curtisc84 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I just found a WT12 with the box and an Old Taylor 86. Can't wait to open these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleJohnsBarrel Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Picked up my first fifth of Weller 12 last weekend...and its almost gone already. It's definitely a step up, for me at least, from OWA 107 and Weller Special Reserve 7. Took that as a good sign and went out to buy my second (and definitely not last) Weller 12.

Smokewagon Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 That's a bummer... weird how price can fluctuate so much from state to state. It's $19.99 here, but the stores do not stock it very well at all, goes almost as quickly as the Rip Van Winkle line.I have to pay $19.99 for Weller 107!. And that's the best price I've found, most places it's $21.99 to $23.99. I have yet to see any of the Winkle line anywhere in the state, it's lotto/drawing for every store, and a bottle never gets put on the shelves.~SW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILLfarmboy Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 The funny thing is, it wasn't even on the shelf. The lady that works there told me she had a ten dollar bourbon. At first I thought she was going to try and sell me some Ten High or something similar. I thought, I know you know I like bourbon but I like staying on the middle or upper-middle shelf. I was floored when she whipped out a bottle of EWSB. I said I'll take two, pleaseI guess she didn't put them on the shelf figuring they wouldn't move at that price point, figuring most folks would mistake price for quality. Said she's had then for a couple months, now. Or perhaps they were on the shelf for a long time and didn't move. It's kind of sad; the ignorance of the average consumer.

unclebunk Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 WT 101 (a mistake as it turns out), a bottle of Rare Breed and a Kentucky Spirit as a gift for a friend. That sorts me out with WT for a while but the 101 is a patch on its former self. Disappointing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atfree Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I was at Roof Brothers in Paducah and picked up one of their private selection Elmer T. Lee bourbons, and a 2009 Thomas H Handy rye (129.0 proof). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanstaafl2 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Rye heavy today. I picked up a bottle of HW Rendezvous that had been specially bottled for a local pub. The Rendezvous had been aged for an additional 29 months in unidentified second fill bourbon barrels and then bottled at 100 proof rather than the usual 92 proof. Non chill filtered as is the case with other bottlings. I would guess this version is out there for others to use as a special bottling as I would doubt it is exclusive to the local pub here but this was the first I had heard of it.Also picked up some bottles of Leopold Bros. Maryland Rye which the local distributor had kindly worked with me to bring into town. Once the BIB version is ready to go in a few years then hopefully I can encourage the distributor to bring that in as well. I've ben curious about this one for awhile so I look forward to giving it a try (and hope I am not disappointed given all the self created expectations I have managed to pile on it!).

WAINWRIGHT Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 WTKS and EWSB for $46 total couldn't pass them up.Thanks to the tip from another member I got a couple of great buys,just in time for the holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) Wait a minute, isn't this HW Rendezvous the brand that touts the fact that it's a six year old rye blended with a 16 year old rye selected for the latter's "rich aromatic qualities"? Well, if that combo is so good why does it need additional 29 months in a barrel? Edited December 19, 2012 by squire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyOldKyDram Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Can't say that Rendezvous needs anything IMO, but I'd certainly be interested in trying this bottling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelturtle1 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Rendezvous doesn't need anything as it is delicious as is, but the higher proof and a bit more age probably only enhances the already spectacular profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
