b1gcountry Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 LOL Working vacation Rich. Doing a few things inside, and outside the house. The bourbon was a bonus. Finish one thing, then have a pour before moving on to the next item on the list.[emoji6] I was about to recommend carrying those home in separate bags. ..

Not expecting it to taste like BT at all actually. I was more or less referencing the fact that the '08 BT seemed to have more robust flavors and depth to it in contrast to its thinner, less complex counterpart being released these days. So I am hoping the '08 Turkey has a lot more character and tasting layers than a bottle of WTKS bottled last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my experience; but the current Turkey products seem less different throughout the last decade or so than the slightly more variable Buffalo products. I think quality control, including barrel mingling by better tasters at Turkey, may be the reason, along with less stock on hand to mingle lately in the case of the Buffalo. Just guessing, of course.

Hop Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Picked up a bottle of Blanton's and Eagle Rare this week. Hadn't had ER in a couple of years but didn't care much for it then decided to give it another go and either it or me has changed - likely it's me but I liked it this time...

The last time this store got some (9 and 10 YO barrels), it took a couple months to sell through. This barrel all sold out the day after he got it in.

Bought 3 ELT's last week, but couldn't pass this one up at that price. Also found a store selling an ETL @ $149.99 lol. I was like...good luck with that.
