JoeTerp Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Finished off a Crown Liquors pick of 1792 Single Barrel that a fellow SB member directed me towards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlutz Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Not sure I’ll buy these again. They were definitely enjoyable but I like the US 101 just fine and the HWRR was a bit pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jfletchgu Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Killed off this bottle while watching my preds hopefully get this win, and take the lead in the central division. It was good, but probably not something that will be replaced anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedelstaedt Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 PH11 SiB. This one was great from beginning to end. Probably the best Bourbon I have enjoyed from Heaven Hill. Thankfully, I have a backup. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Loblaw Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 This was pretty decent. Bit pricey, would love more proof points, but all in all a pleasant dram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 All the scraps went into the infinity bottle Some nice scraps in that bunch. Yeah seriously I’d want to savor those last pours individually. Always figured people with infinity bottles where trying to get rid of the last parts of bottles they didn’t care for and where hoping they’d get something better out of it by blending. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love trying to make a bottle that is consistently better than many premiums. Edited February 25, 2019 by bourbon4all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardsandBourbon Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 A bottle of OGD 114 passed on this weekend. I would be sad, except for the other two bottles in the bunker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These mental lapses can be disconcerting; but, usually are only a temporary blip on the horizon. With so much Bourbon, and an unknown (possibly limited) future with which to work, one must do what one must do, right? Get thee, with all necessary haste, to said retail outlet and; git 'er done, Son! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMartin42 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 HWYKY and a family size EC went down. Count me in the crowd that says EC has gone significantly downhill since losing the age statement or my tastes have significantly changed over the years. Used to be a favorite but this bottle took forever to drink and just could never get into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as YKY, I bought 2 batches of Batch 8. Drank one but did not care for it much. Had to mix it with extra Double Rye. Way way too Vermouth heavy. I still have a Batch 8 bottle left that I'm debating what to do with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had I had a bar pour first I’d have never spent the cash on a whole bottle. It was.....unique. Have an unopened MWND that I expect a similar experience with.

0895 Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 These all bit the dust over the weekend. They were all pretty good. FWIW, the Double oak and the 1910 are very similar products (from their descriptions). While I enjoyed both, I have to admit the WRDO was a tad better than 1910.
