Meh.  Bought on sale and will not buy again.  

Nasa is or was selling 375s for $16 was going to bite but I'll pass after seeing this.

Wrong thread.

16 for those 375's is a steal, if you love MMCS.

Not a fan of Makers but figured I'd give the cask strength a shot. However will likely pass.

Goodbye old friend.  You were wonderful this past summer.

MMCS is better than standard MM but it's still MM. In my tasting notes I think I put MM at 7/10 and MMCS at 7.5/10. So yeah, I would say pass unless you're already a fan of Makers. $16 is a good price though.

[lrochau]

not many of these left....  I now regret all those I passed in houston back in the day for $42.99

Finished up the last of two great pours.

Another Rebel soldier down.  Don't fret, I've got reinforcements at the ready.

I really enjoyed my bottle of MMCS.  It had good viscosity, hits all the notes I expect with a Wheated Bourbon.

A very enjoyable pour. It is reasonable in price & can be found routinely. 

It is different in profile than Weller,  so I try to enjoy each on their own qualities.

Of course YMMV

I just might just bite the bullet, thanks.

Really enjoyed this 375ML from WB the in site liquor store for Costco in Texas. Much better than there ER10 they brought in at the same time.

For the price your talking it's worth the shot, I'm not a fan of MM or MMCS but I like a Manhattan made with MMCS.

They make 375ml's of BT? 

[HoustonNit]

Wish they didn't. WB only bought 375s for there recent barrel selects of BT and ER. Wish they had 375s.

[Golferpimp1]

Enjoyed this one over the last few months!!

Another use of MMCS (which I do not particularly love by itself) is to mix it 50:50 with Weller 12.  The result is far better tasting than either alone.  It is one of those "one provides the extra proof and the other provides the depth of taste."  Nice discovery.

This makes me look bad since I finished these all off today and yesterday, but each had minuscule amounts left and in fact I planned it this way, to knock off several bottles in one fell swoop: Bookers, 1792FP, TX Bourbon, Stagg Jr, and OGD114.  Out with the old, in with the new!

Man down

[Mako254]

I know this expression isn't as popular but I really enjoy it. Got two more stashed away.  Looking forward to the new release, though I like the style of bottle below. 

 

 

[JSpartan]

Final pour from a 9 yr 2 mo OESO that got better and better after opening back in early spring. 

[0895]

VOB 86 proof (2015 date code).

 

good stuff!

[NDN98]

Took a while for this to open up, but it really was a good bottle and will be remembered fondly.
