Oli77 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Used to love that with a cigar in 2013. I have moved on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako254 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 With Four Roses private selections becoming 1) harder to find and 2) more expensive the small batch select will help protect the bunker. This bottle grew on me with each session. Going to have to find another next week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 With Four Roses private selections becoming 1) harder to find and 2) more expensive the small batch select will help protect the bunker. This bottle grew on me with each session. Going to have to find another next week. Ha just killed mine as well and it definitely grew on me. I liked it and glad I bought but I’m reluctant to buy another as it’s price point seems somewhat high. If the plan is to change the recipes for future batches I’ll probably give it another go.

JCwhammie Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Though there's a cube in there, it's a pretty healthy final pour from this bottle. It won't take long to replace it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll definitely add one to the bunker in the near future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepCover Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) This has become one of my favorites. I’m glad I got an extra. Edited June 29, 2019 by DeepCover 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soberiquet Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Finishing a 375 of MMCS. I am not a big fan of Maker's or wheaters for that matter, but was wanting to try a Cask Strength version. I didn't much care for this bottle and it lasted me over a year. Luckily, in the last month I found it was really good with a snack, and I finished the bottle quickly thereafter. Still won't replace though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 RRSiB PS. Finished it off last night. I was a good bottle, but not much different than a standard RRSiB. So good, but probably not a bunker bottle. The fun of single barrels. Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted July 4, 2019 Author Share Posted July 4, 2019 This quickly became a favorite for the mrs. & I, and was fairly short lived. Yes, it was expensive compared to their other offerings and I was skeptical because the barrel proof SB is a much better value dollar for dollar. This bottle was so well balanced and the flavors just sung in perfect harmony for us. Definitely one of my favorite recent releases. My hope is that my backup bottle (from a different barrel) will be just as enjoyable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bret Bret Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 This could have also gone in the cocktail forum, but it was the end of the ECBP A119 bottle. A healthy squeeze of lime, maple syrup and chocolate bitters and lots of ice to fight 87 degrees. Happy 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
