All due respect, but I don’t understand why the snarky comments? I’m not trying to criticize you, it’s more just surprise that some whiskey sucks that bad. Guess that isn’t coming across in the text. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the WP brand has sprung several extensions in recent years but I have only experienced the 10/10/100 and some choice BPs. I absolutely love Canadian 10 year old rye (Alberta). I have had several WP10 from Canada and several of the older Jefferson's Rye 10 year old non-chill filtered and all were stellar. I was recently gifted a WP12 Old World Rye. I have had three decent size pours on three different occasions. It is a finished rye @ 86 proof. It was distilled in Indiana. I have had some stellar Indiana distilled rye. This isn't one. I will set it aside for a while but as it stands now, it would be one of only three possible drain pours I have ever had. The other two? Dickel 12 and Starlight Carl T. store pick. Neither ended up in the drain. One was added to a solera (Starlight), the other left at a party. I also left a Larceny at a party. Others seemed to love it. Me. Not so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly toast It sounded so good (roasted marshmallow!) so I grabbed one...never could get into it so I ended up leaving at a bottle share. Not a bad deal, though, cuz I left with what was left of the Joseph Magnus bottle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IamMatt Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I've never poured a bottle down the drain. I'll revisit it periodically (they often get better over time), I'll experiment with blending it, and if nothing works, I'll give it to a friend who likes it or bring it to a bottle share. I do have that Benchmark 8 though... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I sense consternation with and agree that dumping a pour of WTR101 is mind blowing. I would be interested in hearing what characteristics were offensive enough to constitute such a demise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven s Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I certainly understand not wanting to finish a bottle you don't enjoy, I've been there many times myself, but maybe find someone else who would drink them instead of posting photos of things like a WT101 rye going down the drain?
