amg Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I like RR10 also. Hadn't heard about a label change, though. But nothing changing to the juice (so far)?They submitted new label designs to the TTB but it's still 10 year / 90 proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAbiker Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 They submitted new label designs to the TTB but it's still 10 year / 90 proof.Saw the new label today and did a double take....sure looks different.One must have? ETL...or Weller 12....or EHT SiB....or OWA...or...Old FitzBIB if I could ever find it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 They submitted new label designs to the TTB but it's still 10 year / 90 proof.Good to hear they weren't changing the label to read:10 * (out of 10, it's delicious)90 proof (if you add 10 to the actual proof of 80) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amg Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Interesting things about the new labels:The "Small Batch Single Barrel" is now labeled as just "Single Barrel". In fact, none of the labels mention "small batch" anywhere on them.They now have both Jimmy and Eddie Russell's signatures on them as master distillers.On the COLA for the Russell's Reserve Rye, the TTB gave it a classification of Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

Even better if WT is getting rid of SmB and SB on the same bottle which never made any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourbonfoot Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 FRSB and/or EC12/ECBP could hold me over for a good long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebo Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 If "must have" means only one that I can have all the time.... I have to say FRSB... with EC12 in the wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, none of the labels mention "small batch" anywhere on them.Eddie Russell told me last year that the "Small Batch" on the label was a marketing screw up he missed when that label came out. So no surprise they are fixing it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave43 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 This, but sadly a distant memory now I'm trying to resist opening my last 4 bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black mamba Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 For years mine was EC12, but I believe in the same price range that OF Signature has replaced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Tot Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 OWA for me. Holding out at present for a store pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emr454 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 4RSB without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Blacksmith Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I approached this question like someone from the 70's, with today's availability. Got paid Friday, went to the store to pick up a bottle to help make it through the week or two ahead. I would go for a bonded OGD or Old Fo. Whichever is available at the corner store.
