El Vino Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 ^^^ Drinking mine neat. Great way to start the weekend. I've got plenty in the bunker, but I would sure like to try a barrel selection to see if there is a big difference from the [consistently outstanding] current standard bottling.

fozzy71 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I saw some lonely bottles on the shelves downstairs when doing some laundry so I brought up 3 open bottles: EC12, BT and my OGD114/Ritt vatting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fozzy71 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 SBS of BT with a Single Barrel Store Select was interesting, now back to the standard BT to try and kill the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowes Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Having a pour of a private selection OWA I grabbed this week. Flavor profile is pretty much the same as regular, a little more rounded and softer, but it has a much better mouthfeel to it... Nice viscosity. Cheers everyone!

flahute Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Had a great day at work today and it calls for a celebration so WLW '14 it is. I do love a barrel proof wheater. Sipping it slow and getting the most out of it. The celebration will continue with some GTS next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golzee Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Only one store by my house has 354 available, it is not terrible, but I think I prefer regular old Early Times for $5 cheaper. But 345 is worth a purchase if you ever find a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t44tq Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I was drinking RHF last night and pondering how it is both different from, but also like, Blanton's. I think I am going to do a SBS since I like them both and want to refine how they are different.Similarities include:1. Pretty bottle.2. Kind of pricey3. Top tier hand selected bourbons offered by BT (other than BTAC and PVW)4. More on the mild-and-refined side of things, as opposed to the bold-and-in-your-face side5. Really easy to drink, as in looking down at the glass and finding it empty without really remembering that you drank it all.I did a BT comparison a while back- ETL, Blanton's and RHF. I liked the RHF by a wide margin. Seemed smoother than the other two, just as tasty. I don't know why ETL is so coveted, unless it's for the price- $26 vs $45 for RHF and $50 for Blanton's.I like the CEHT single barrel better, though (different mashbill).

Special Reserve Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 Well, I did it again, a nice little pour of WLW 125.3 while waiting for the coffee to brew.My bourbon consumption has diminished in recent times but I really love a little bourbon to start a day. Maybe I should retire sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
