dad-proof Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Just finished a 6 week assignment so winding down with a pour of WT101 8 year (Japanese bottling from ~4 years ago) while enjoying the weather with a bit of hammock time before I help with bedtime routines. The 8yr is good, but I'm not sure it is much if any better than current domestic WT101. Maybe a bit "thicker" feeling, but maybe a bit more tannic as well. WT is doing good work these days.

LvR Mike Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I've had a good amount of this and I still can't tell if I love it or hate it but I'm going to continue to drink it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.B. Babington Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 You guys tired of me moaning 'bout my last pre-fire EC12. Don't worry, it'll be done soon, maybe. I've about 500 ml left. Going to town on it tonight, great. Followed with 2019 EC18. EC18 more complex, then harsh after, then the florals after glow. EC12 less complex but very enjoyable up front (from memory of good times?) and then long lingering florals afterglow. If you offered me a contemporary EC18 and pre-fire EC12, I'm taking the 12. To put it in context, I still have at least half case pre-fire EC18, 1 or 2 EC21, maybe EC23. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Hitting up some EC NAS from a recently purchased bottle. Not a favorite but a nice bourbon and one that I enjoy. It is a great representative of the Heaven Hill bourbon family. Edited May 21, 2021 by mbroo5880i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 For Thursday, I'm Enjoying a smallish pour of WTKS PS. This one is chewy. Nicely balanced. Sadly, the only bottle I have. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzhead Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) I first tried a finished bourbon about six years ago, and that first one is still the best of the breed I've encountered, even better than Murray Hill Club. I bunkered one of these, and am sipping from it tonight and wondering whatever became of it - Hooker's House Bourbon. Shout bamalama - this is good bourbon, absolutely balanced and delicious! And subtle - this is six-year high rye bourbon from a "Bourbon-belt rickhouse" (WTF?) that is then finished in pinot noir barrels from Sonoma County. But the bourbon isn't beaten into submission by the wine barrel. It's just a kiss of the pinot, and otherwise a respectable sippin' bourbon of adequate age that was waved over a hot blackberry danish. This'll make a fine dusty to keep an eye out for.

fishnbowljoe Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I’m having a couple of celebratory pours of a ps Weller FP after getting home from work. It’s a celebration for a few reasons. First and foremost, tomorrow is my 39th wedding anniversary. I have a wonderful wife, and I’m not quite sure how she’s put up with me for so long. Secondly, I let my work know my official retirement date. I plan on pulling the plug on September 7th. Last but not least, I had a pretty decent week at work for a change. I will neither confirm nor deny that it may have been because my supervisor was on vacation the last few days. Cheers! Biba! Joe 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your right. Couldn’t stand this 4-5 years back but in the last 1-2 years it’s very good for the price. Figured it was me but no it’s them!

My manager was off this week as well, and I noticed that the stress level around our dept. plummeted and it was actually a pretty decent week overall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Saw this WT101 rye today, (sorry wrong forum but it’s barely rye). TW by me usually has the 1L bottle by me for around $30. WT101 rye had probably become my favorite daily was excited to try the new bottle even if it’s a 750ML. Even better noticed on the receipt it’s $16.99. I think I’ll go back and get a case. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Woodford while chillin’ on the front patio with Braves on the radio. Woodford has really hit another gear with my palate the last couple of bottles. Thinking about it, every Brown Forman whiskey is in overdrive and also flipping the NOS switch with my palate right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
