b1gcountry Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 ^Thats crazy $40 for OGD114. It's not everywhere but still can be found somewhat easily for $22 to $25 a bottle here for OGD114. Bought some recently didn't like it as first but it's growing on me.I just poured myself some and the price tag on the top reads 19.99. I never have been a fan. All hot and no taste for me. I have been having a change of opinion on some of my bottles, so I gave this another try. Still not a big fan. I like the BIBLE though.

OldFitzWithTheGoldLabel Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 It's the version they serve in the dry counties.I bought in some dry counties back in my youth... early experiences with bottle flippers before the Pappy craze.I remember paying what seemed to be an arm and a leg for Rebel Yell, Old Fitz Prime, WT 101, and Kessler.

elmossle Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Tonight it was a bottle of Four Roses OBSQ. First couple of sips, I thought it was a little thin on the finish. Bust the further I got into it, it really started to open up and the finished lingered like a normal PS Four Roses. I doubt this bottle lasts long.

I am a big fan of the unique taste of Stagg Jr but it's not what I would call balanced. I do find the CEHT BP more balanced and refined than StaggJr. Same thoughts here, Stagg jr is more like "in your face" , CEHTBP is more like a smooth well rounded barrel proof. I've only tasted batch 5, will pick up my second bottle tomorrow. I can't find the other batches unless I'm willing to pay more than €200, it not cheap here in Europe, I've paid €135 for a bottle of batch 5 and that's my limit for this one. Cheers!

Nm0369 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Following the discussion of OC8 yesterday, I pulled the trigger on a handle today for $19.97. I had to crack it open when I got home. At 80 proof there's a little left to be desired, but for the money I can't complain. Fairly sweet profile with a little butterscotch. Bottle dated 2004.

Looks like a great buy to me - the proof is a little low but I've learned to appreciate it - at that price in case you couldn't already figure this out about me I would load up - they don't make it any longer and won't make it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking pick a bottle of the standard CEHT and if it's any good will try to get some barrel proof. Saw something that the next barrel proof release is in May. Have a feeling I'm paying for packaging vs. ER10 that goes for about $5 cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ER has a mildew/mustiness that simply doesn't do it for me. Elmer T Lee has it too, but it is muted. I prefer CEHT over ER.

I've nearly bought all their old Austin Nichols WT101, and today I realized the WTKS they have is from 2006. The turkeys are breeding in my bunker.

JasonMPyle Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I opened a bottle of HW Son of Bourye I found this past weekend. It was stuck behind some other HW bottles with a surprisingly low price. I liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
