JPBoston Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Think I'll pour some more 4RSmB... at first I wasn't too impressed, but the mix of fruit and wood is starting to grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smknjoe Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Weller 12 and I still don't like it after at least 3 pours on different days. It tastes nothing like bourbon to me. It's more like a blended scotch that's woody/smoky. Did I get a bad bottle, or is it that many of you drink scotch and It's familiar taste to you? Out of the 6-7 bourbons I have on hand this is by far the odd man (out.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChainWhip Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Doesn't taste much like scotch to me - try blending it in a 1:1 ratio with OWA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smknjoe Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Doesn't taste much like scotch to me - try blending it in a 1:1 ratio with OWASounds pretty good since I do like OWA. I'll give it a shot and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the 6-7 bourbons I have on hand this is by far the odd man (out.)I actually said the same thing (tasting like scotch), as it's my first time trying W12... a little thin as well. Can't wait to try the SB Blend once I get some OWA on hand again.After my initial post this evening, I decided to finally pop in "Lawless" --- Damn good movie about moon-shining back in prohibition. Followed up my initial 4RSmB with OGD114 and a couple chocolate peanut butter balls... and goddamn if the OGD114 didn't impress me more then the 4R, at nearly $10 cheaper to boot! Gotta love the OGD114! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portugieser Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Abraham Bowman, Special Release - Port Finished Bourbon. Good God, this is amazing stuff.

Unfortunately I can't come up with another option at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smknjoe Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Squire, you are an OGD drinkn' fool! Had the Rittenhouse BIB last night. Not bad, I think I like rye better in my bourbon. I could see how it would make some tasty cocktails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
