mosugoji64 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 A big Thank You to GaryT for pointing this out a while back. Mine arrived yesterday and I think it's pretty cool. It definitely stands out from the other bottles on the shelf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 To further clarify what one could expect if acquiring one of these... The ad seems to show a natural cork stopper; but your pic (next to the ad) seems to show a synthetic 'cork' stopper. Which one actually comes with it? Thanx, in advance...

mosugoji64 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 It's synthetic, which is a plus to me. Not sure why the one on the box looks natural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I totally agree. The synthetic ones outlast natural cork by some exponent. I've never done a long enough study to determine what number that might be; but significant, I'm sure. Thanx! Gary would LOVE one of these, I'm sure; but struggle to find room for it, I fear.....

GaryT Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 That looks great Brian!! I'm hoping Santa may be bringing me one of those this week (or if not, some other random large man in a red suit talking smack about Hos - I'm not really particular). Really hoping that they follow it up with a Vader version next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryT Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I guess demand outstripped supply, but if finally arrived! I was worried as I almost couldn't get the synthetic top out, but after washing the decanter and it, seems to work just fine (a tad on the tight side, but I guess better that than loose!) Nice heft to it, and sharp presentation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice heft to it, and sharp presentation! I guess the fat man was running a little late but good to see that yours arrived! The cork on mine was pretty tight as well but seems to be working fine now that it has been filled for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
