Bonham's Whiskey Auction

Got a question regarding the article. The 90 proof BUB I picked up last weekend has a '93 bottle date as well as the phrase "distilled, aged and bottled at the Buffalo Trace Distillery" which the article uses to date the bottle post '99. All of the BUBs that I can find detailed pics of have that phrase (can't find a clear one of the 107 proof version, which would disprove the articles claim outright as it disappeared around '92, right?).

What's the age of my bottle? Thanks for the help guys.

Oh and by the way, it's quite tasty. I opened it with a couple of fellow bourbon philistines the other night.

The answer you are looking for should be in the most recent ETL BOTM thread. I posted some info there when I had a similar question. Also, use google to search the site instead of the built in search function. You will get better results.

I can't remember for sure, but I thought they had both 107 and 90 after 92 and dropped the 107 completely in 99. Just pulling that info out of my hat.

Edit: After reading that link it sure looks like you are right about the proof drop in 92.

Again, Thanks. Getting my facts straight for when I try to sound smart with my buddies.
