Well I'm glad to finish this one off, OFSig. Glad I tried it but I won't be purchasing another.

It has an interesting nose like banana Laffy Taffy or something. Finish is horrible hot and young but not in a barely legal way. I'd be interested in trying an OF product that was age stated 8+ but until then.
 

Try the 1920. It's nas but it doesn't taste young. I'd guess it's in the 6 to 8 year range. This stuff is awesome. Has a rich, dark fruit taste with a great feel. I always say I get chocolate covered cherries from it.

Finished off a Decades today. It's a very good bourbon, but I like the 17y better.

I need to give to OF1920 another shoot. I really liked it but not more than other high proof offerings, KCSB, ECBP and Booker's.

I like it better than KCSB, close to equal to Booker's, but it definitely falls short of ECBP (except maybe A117). Around here it runs around $55 which is $10+ more than KCSB, about the same as Booker's, and $15 less than ECBP.

I need to get some pre A117 batch ECBP. I love the latest batch of ECBP can't imagine how good the previous batches must be.

During my vacation in Utah, I definitely did my fair share of helping HW make some money.

Didn't drink this whole thing, but did manage to finish it off over the course of the week.  Got the bottle as a "prize".

:)

Here's a couple more, LoL.

 

A 355ml of Double Rye!

&

A 355 of Rendezvous Rye (the label might've accidentally come off in the hot tub.......;)).

 

It's been a good week!

Batch one.

Bottle # 450

 

I saw bottles numbered up into the 3700's in the gift shop.... So no clue how many total.

The employees have indicated that it's not selling well.  They seemed a bit surprised that I liked it..... Oh well.

I think there is only one batch so far. Who doesn't like Concord grape jelly flavor in their whiskey??? B)

 

Despite tasting it with David as he described that flavor profile I could never quite find Concord grape jelly flavor. Lots of vanilla though!

355ml, huh? If you haven't pitched them, I might be interested in the empty bottles...

Assuming you don't want them

OK, I misread the words. Reading isn't an engineers strong point...

It would be selling REALLY bad if they were still on bottle #1

That's an older bottle, at least the label is from a year or so ago.  How did you like it?

Very solid BIB.  Great in cocktails.

My first bottle and it was a good young bourbon.  For 15 bucks, I'm a supporter of this one

Totally agree. It punches way above its weight. I Was going to have some tonight but it was up too high in the cabinet and I didn't feel like getting the step stool out so I "settled" for a Rittenhouse/Herbsaint Sazerac.

Sorry.

One stayed in Utah, and the wife brought the other one home and blah blah blah has plans for it.... :)

 

They sell most of their products in 355's and 750's out there.  Slightly cheaper to buy the 750's, but with the plane ride home, we didn't want any leftovers.

I agree...never got jelly from it....grape or otherwise.  It's interesting, good even, but not anything spectacular.

Killed a rebel soldier.  He put up a good fight but I got the best of him.

You mean 375 ml, no? If not I never realized they were an abnormal size.

Bottle of regular BT will be heading to the great green bin in the sky in the morning. No I have an excuse to open the liter of BT single barrel I have sitting in the bunker.
