Not_That_Fancy Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Dug to the back of the bar tonight to pour one of my favorite pours this year for the price! I was lucky enough to put a few bottles up in the bunker as well. The Beam DC is one of my favorite beam products hands down. Not to mention <$20! Any other fans of this out there? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 This MMCS continues to evolve since the bottle was opened. You guys and the JBDC - it vanished here a long time ago. If I ever see it again, man, I'd be grabbing a bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other fans of this out there? Oh yeah! Distiller's Cut is the best JB branded product I've tasted. I call it a "baby Baker's". Way better than Old Tub or JB BiB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - really delicious stuff for the money. I thought buying a half-dozen or so would keep me stocked up for the long haul, and I think I'm on the last one now. Someone recommended mingling this with Bakers to stretch that, and I found that was really good as well (Bakers is delicious as is, but this added some viscosity to it, and didn't really detract for it, at a 1:1 ratio - hard to beat at $30 net!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guss West Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Nah, that DC is terrible. If you see it, just leave it on the shelf and let me know where you saw it! I have at least six bottles of this stashed away. Easily the best Beam-label product I've tried and the only one purchased in quantity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchertiger Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I love Old Tub, second only to OGD 114. Jim Beam refers to it as a "limited-edition offering" so I am stocking up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parksmart Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 JB Distiller’s Cut? That stuff is horrible and overrated. Please do not go deep on it. No how, no way. Find something better. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottledInBond Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Tried the 2020 OFBB. I’m not a fan at all based on first impression. I feel like this one is living on reputation and tradition currently. Unfortunately a lot of people that treat it like a unicorn bottle just want to put it on their shelf anyway, so maybe the actual taste doesn’t that matter to a lot of the current buyers.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last OFBB I bought was 2009 and I paid $39.99. It had a 12 year age statement and was 90 something proof. It was not awful, but not really good either. It was obviously OF juice, but with a dry and tannic aftertaste. Honestly, I thought OF Signature at that time was a much tastier whiskey, regardless of price. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertckim Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Finishing off a bottle of Eagle Rare from 2015. Tastes better as the bottle nears its demise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiskeyBlender Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) Enjoying a little holiday cheer and celebrating the beginning of blood orange season with a blood orange cocktail using a leftover 126.25 proof 13+ year old barrel sample from a blend I was working on back in May. I've now moved on from the cocktail to drinking neat another 13+ year old cask sample at 131.28 proof. Whoa boy, this is going to be a fun and crazy evening! Hope everyone is mellowing out during the holidays and imbibing some spectacular juice!

JCwhammie Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 First pour from this warehouse G RR SiB. Of course it's good. I love the variation in rickhouse characteristics that happen at the WT locations. On a side note, them boys from Oklahoma are showing what they're capable of down in Arlington tonight. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
