tanstaafl2 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 In trying to find any scraps of info I could on the Jefferson Ocean I came across this picture on what I presume is a product designers website. I know nothing else about it. Perhaps the label hunters can discover more info. More Canadian product? Whatever it is it certainly would seem to have potential...

tanstaafl2 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) I started another thread but see I am late to the party. Don't have any new info but did find a picture by accident.Note that thread has been merged with this one. p_elliott Edited November 24, 2012 by p_elliott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wryguy Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I had an interesting conversation on the phone today with Eric at the Jug Shop in San Francisco. We got to talking about things in the pipeline and the JPS21 came up. He told me that he had just spoken to Trey Zoeller and got word that this will be a bourbon and not a rye and that the source was NOT S-W juice. Eric speculated that the little S-W not already used in the JPS18 would be used in a future limited, ultra-premium bottling. I've heard HH has similar plans for the barrels of S-W they are sitting on. All of this being rumor and hearsay, but interesting fodder for forums like these. Where could the bourbon for a JPS21 come from? And how much will they charge, knowing it lacks the cachet of S-W? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless I know more about what it is rather than what it isn't I don't plan to buy this JPS21 until I at least have a chance to try it first. And if that chance doesn't materialize then I guess I won't be buying. I must say the "ultra-premium" bottlings of supposed S-W juice, whether it be Jefferson's or HH, sounds a bit tiresome already and it isn't even available yet!

Makes me want to snatch up a couple more JPS18. I know of a store that has a couple on sale for 69.99. As far as the bottle mock-up that confused me, mostly because of my ignorance. Was there a separate COLA entry for a JPS21 bourbon? Would a change from rye to bourbon necessitate a new COLA entry? Time to do some research...

Wryguy Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 There is a TTB COLA entry for a straight bourbon:https://www.ttbonline.gov/colasonline/viewColaDetails.do?action=publicDisplaySearchBasic&ttbid=12320001000005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Well, I expect they will charge as much as they think they can get, but I won't be tempted at any price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdeffe Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Product Source is marked as Domestic (opposed to Imported)Will this rule out CanadaThere is also Proximo listed with their Lawrenceburg, Indiana adressSo Maybe it's LDI (the only 21yo rye from there I know of was matured in used barrels though)Steffen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostBottle Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I really hope the 21 rye is coming to market. If it is indeed a domestic source, I am very curious to know who still has 21yo rye laying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFerguson Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I really hope the 21 rye is coming to market. If it is indeed a domestic source, I am very curious to know who still has 21yo rye laying around.I'll certainly be in line next to you when this comes out.But my gut says that it probably cannot be US distilled rye. The last of the ultra aged ryes all came to market within the same small time period, and aside from the tanked VWFRR and Saz 18, there just isn't anything in the market that would even come close. Even the HW 16 and 21 year ryes where anomaly's in their own right-and delicious ones at that. Canada always seems to be the usual suspect of recent with any aged rye product coming to market.Seriously---1)who who have have something like this on hand domestically? 2)With the market being smoking hot for products like these-why sell them to somebody else to put out. As long as the juice is decent, anybody would be nuts to offload these, even though the yield would likely be small, make it a niche product, and even priced at the high end of the market, it will sell.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostBottle Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Any updates on this? If it is still coming, it very well may be the release of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanstaafl2 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Have heard the first rumors of this hitting town so if it is here it must be out elsewhere. But it looks like this is a 21 yo bourbon, not a rye, is in the $130 range and still mystery whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanstaafl2 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 There's one of each coming out: a bourbon and a rye.The rye I would probably try, even at this rather spendy price, if the reviews are half decent. But I am going to pass on the bourbon.Saving money instead to see if I can acquire a bottle of Old Potrero Hostaling's mostly because I have always wanted to try that and not because it makes a lick of sense to spend that kind of money on it!

Makes Saz 18 look as easy to pick up as Bud Lite.I've tried emailing Anchor to see if they even release it anymore, but have never gotten a reply.

Most of the bottles went to charity events and a couple went to special tastings.At the Vegas show (UWE) they said that they are planning to do a release this year.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomH Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I think that you got your answer. Hopefully you don't have insider knowledge that changes what I was told...I need to get a couple more bottles :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
