black mamba Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Meruck, do you have any knowledge of when that beauty was bottled? My VSOF 12 bought just 6 months ago is now drinking superbly after half of it is gone. It was like a wine that just wouldn't open up until now.

Meruck Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 BM, it wound is still fresh, but she was a fine 12 year old, barreled in '53 and bottled in '65. This was a true SW juice. Teh VSOF 12 is a current HH product. I will say its a nive pour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

higgins Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Lost two bottles last night, Ritt BIB and HH 6 year BIB. Their last pours did combine to make a pretty good Manhattan, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squire Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Warn you though Matt, that 1.75 Barton is one of the heaviest bottles I've ever had to wrestle with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 VOB BIB hit the recycle bin along side my WRMC Sonoma Cutrer. I finished the VOB. Sad to say, but the last 1/4 bottle or so of the WRMC ended up cleaning out my garbage disposal. It's been open for a long time, and I just couldn't finish it. :crazy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meruck Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Well based on Col. Chuck's recent posting on his blog, we all might run out of Weller 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tico Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It's a sad day around these parts. Just finished off a mind blowing bottle of 81' ER 10/101 Lawrenceburg. Sad to see it go as its my last bottle, a very good pour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronWF Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I kicked over the lone bottle of WLW '12 I was able to scoop up last year. It stuck around for a few months so that's good. I liked it about 100% better than the '11, though overall it lacked complexity. A really nice caramel sweetness to it, not deep, but certainly sexy. As usual, I poured the last of the bottle through a coffee filter to avoid ingesting the spent barrel char. I know some view this as blasphemy, but though I appreciate the job it does as a bourbon steeper, it's just not something I need inside of me.

jcg9779 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Finished off a long open bottle of JB Black label not too long ago. Not a bad bourbon but I doubt it will be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeti Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Sent a Willet 4 Year Straight Rye out with the season last night. Always an enjoyable pour. I've heard people describe certain whiskies as "lip smacking" and that comes to mind with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
