Flyfish Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Last two pours of VOB 6YO from my last handle. Has been one of my Big Three (with AAA and OWA) for a long time. Not the greatest bourbon in the world but a simply marvelous daily pour. Now that two of the Big Three are gone, will be actively seeking replacements. I'm surely (but don't call me Shirley) the only SBer who mourns the loss of VOB as we knew it. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyfish Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Sorry. My fingers got ahead of my brain (or vice versa) and the "not" got left out of that sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callmeox Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 To steer this thread back on topic...I wrung the last couple pours out of an OGD BiB last evening. I'm glad that it can be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskeyagonzo Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I killed a 2013 FR 125th. It hurt a little but every pour was thoroughly enjoyed by myself and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreasoner Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 In the last few weeks I've been trying to kill off a few bottles. So far I've killed Rittenhouse, BMH, FRSB, and a 1792. I've got a few more to go. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBM Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Needed to clear some cabinet space so I finished the last 3-4 oz in bottles of OWA, EWSB 2002 and EC12 while making cocktails at a friend's house. I really like the EWSB 2002, contemplating picking up another while they are still on the shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clindt Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 OWA was laid to rest tonight. I'll need to pick up another before they decide to turn it into OWA Original 107 Brand and just put a 107 on the neck label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I finished a 200 ml TW Samuels BIB, a 1987 SW Cabin Still, and a 1968 Old Crow. The only bottles I have open now are a HH 6yr BIB, a EW BIB and a JDSS. But……………….. I do have some on deck. I pulled a few from my cabinet to restock the "open bottle" section on my shelf. These should hold me for a while. Cheers! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyfish Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 How can I miss you if you won't go away?Two thoughts on the 2013 demise of AAA 10YO and VOB 6YO--the extremely empty bottles: 1) There are now two more prime targets for dusty hunters; 2) Years from now, some of us will wax nostalgic in posts about the Golden Age of bourbon when even the bottom shelf was magnificent.
