Sam Houston batch number....

[WhiskeyProposition]

I posted recently about a bottle of Sam Houston 15 year that I picked up at a NY liquor store.

 

I was reading on Sam Houston's site and came across their releases & batches page. The 15 year is batch 6. It shows NY as receiving batches 1 the 2 (NY-1 & NY-2). Mine is labeled as 'NY-3', which isn't listed as one of their batches. I've just messaged them about it and hope to hear back. 

 

Seems a bit odd...

I am not an expert on this bourbon.  I wonder if they mean it is the third overall release for NY.   If so, this might be Release 6, NY-1

 

State specific releases for NY

 

Release 2 - 2019, NY-1

Release 4 - 2020, NY-1

Release 6 - 2021, NY-1 and NY-2

 

I am bored so I checked their website and I am just speculating.  I am certain they will provide the actual information you seek.

I misspoke....it should have read:

 

The 15 year is RELEASE 6. It shows NY as receiving batches 1 and 2 (NY-1 & NY-2). Mine is labeled as 'NY-3', which isn't listed as one of their batches under Release 6.

Since no one answered my question in another thread .....

 

How does it taste?  I haven't found tasting notes from anyone on the SH 15.

I haven’t tasted it, but supposedly it’s the same mash/distillate as the Old Carter… sourced out of Bardstown.

I have a SH14.

It tastes a lot like 1792 twelve year to me.

Oaky, slightly fruity (cherry), etc.

Pretty solid stuff.

The SH15 is a slightly higher proof (103 vs 98, I believe) and probably tastes a year older.
