Vosgar Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Finished off this very tasty W.B. Saffell tonight. Is it worth the money? At the price point WT has it at, that's debatable, but it's a bourbon I really enjoyed drinking. No regrets at all. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A local chain was blowing them out late last year for $29.99. A buy all day for that number. Really enjoyable pour. Proof is on point and has nice complexity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the idea as well, and already decided that there will probably be a Turkey and 4R infinity project coming soon as well! Funny that a normal infinity bottle never appealed to me as a project, but one specific to distillery or release really really does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically, I prefer to only mingle like distillate, as I feel it works out better for my tastes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigPapa Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Probably the best MMPS I’ve had so far. Sweet liquid chocolate all the way. Sad to see it go, but happy about the open shelf space! Really dark juice there!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Finished off an ETL. This one was much better than my last bottle (thank goodness), but still not as good as the bottle before that. A good pour nonetheless. Cheers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait until the stocks are so heavy, we can get private picks of Elmer again. This bottle I just finished, was from a very old barrel. Not sure what that means, regarding future bottles.
