Like many of us, my bourbon “collection” becomes a sore spot in my marriage occasionally.  In an effort to reduce open bottle counts, and try to get the open bottles to a more manageable state, I decided that I’m tired of looking at this 1.75ml monster in our dining room.  It’s been sitting there since 2016 I believe.  It’s dated as a batch from’16 anyway.

So yeah, I cut the seal today to start working on eliminating it.  My coworker has a new interest in bourbon and loves this stuff, so he doesn’t know it yet, but he’ll probably be getting a 200ml gift of it from me to start. ?

 

Solid C+ bourbon. ?‍♂️

You're about to become the Oprah of WPS, "you get sample of WPS, you get a sample of WPS, EVERYONE gets a sample if WPS!!"

Agree. The lower proofed ECBP have been a hit with me.

I'll pass on a sample.  I've got my own 1.75L that needs to be emptied.  Its also a 2016 vintage.

I prefer them as well. I recently finished a B519 (I have 1 left) and I have 1 hefty pour left of B517. I'm happy they keep giving us 1 batch per year in the 120's

It's quite risky to buy a 1.75ml bottle of a C+ Willet distilled bourbon. :P

Couldn’t agree more with lower proof.  The 120’s is a fantastic spot for this barrel proof!  I’m really enjoying my bottle and at $49 I might have to get another.

It was originally purchased for decoration purposes.

Im really kinda regretting opening it.  There’s deceptively a lot of liquid in there.

Some long wax "legs" on this one.  The nose is very reminiscent of RC6 with a distinct fruit (apples and pears) nose. It is better than regular MM but it's still got that hint of acetone that I'm not crazy about. The extra proof gives a (small) bit of depth and punch that is really lacking in regular MM. It pales in comparison to OWA. I prefer MM46 out of the MM lineup. I've yet to try the 46 Cask Strength.

Looks exactly like my bottle Tim. Maybe the same gall dipped ‘em both. ?

My favorite MM has been a MM Private Select with all 10 staves the MM46 staves.

Mrs. Clueby is continuing to work on the MM101 and I cracked a fresh KC120 PS. This is my 2nd bottle of this pick...and I have 2 more in the bunker. Something about this pick that really drops right into my wheelhouse.20201010_221007.thumb.jpg.027a117c3511c70617196a2ec70967f9.jpg
