Phil T Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Seems like more and more I'm leaving my high end stuff on the shelf and reaching for one of my favorite budget bottles. Today it's MM. No apologies, I like it. It's a damn solid bourbon for $20. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masset1982 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Still on killing bottles mode, SOAS 10y 53% something. Tonight it’s a 127.2 CEHTBP, making room for new ones. Cheers! Will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept passing on this due to the price for a long time. Around the time that I had talked myself into buying a bottle, they were all gone! I keep looking though, and I’ll probably find one someday.

MJBlah Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I just opened my first bottle of Weller Special Reserve and am absolutely loving it. Not easy to find here in the UK, so I'm going to have to look around and find some more, this bottle isn't going to last long. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see those quite often merchandised with the standard fractional bottles— gathering dust due to the comparatively high price point. Same holds true for some of the 375 ml LE Bowman releases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Okay y'all, don't get your undies in a bundle. I'm blending again. Half and half MMCS and Maker's 46 PS with a splash of WSR added just for s**its and giggles. What can I say? To quote Hannibal Smith from the A Team, "I love it when a plan comes together." Ahhhh, wheater bliss. Biba! Joe 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the OC 7yr (80 proof) from Lousiville was very similar to the OC 8 NAS (80 proof) I bought last year. I'd say BT did a good job of keeping the profile, but then again they sure aren't bottling anything under the Old Charter brand these days that can match the OCPR 13. I had the last pour out of the bottle of 7yr; it was a little sad to see such an old bottle go the recycling plant in the sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
