It's not reminding me of the WT101 I used to get at all. It's more young, harsh, almost grassy at times. Wondering where the turkey ran off to. Not digging this one at all TBH...and this used to be a go-to for me. Pooh... I have noticed a decline in quality of WT101 in the last year or two. Mainly a much younger whiskey. I hope it turns around soon. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, I recently stumbled across a RRSiB that is incredible. Age, flavor, it has it all. Just a standard RRSiB. It makes me wonder, if WT is now diverting “good” barrels to the RR line.

Six months later, I tried another one and it was excellent, rich, complex and creamy. So, it seems there's some inconsistency in this product, which is unfortunate.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 I’ve not been much of a fan of Weller SR over the years. Picked one up today, and sipping now and I’m liking it. Creamier and more depth than I remember. Nice lower shelf offering. But, why people spooge over it, I still don’t understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally dislike any art made after 1949, and a good deal of what preceded it. Greek, Roman, Renaissance Italy? Bring it on. But I am married to La Artista who has a different view on such matters. But kudos to me: I married an Artista who is who is not only not a Commie, but probably more politically conservative than I on certain issues. Talk about a unicorn! As to that painting: I think the hamsters whose wee little feet were dipped in three different colors were given shrooms & meth at the same time before being released upon the canvas. As a Cheap Bastard, you'd probably have stopped at the meth and thereby lost some of the....effect. Just sayin'! I could be mistaken. As the house Philistine, I frequently error in such matters. I would have made the hamsters bring their own meth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fosmith Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Celebrating a Gophers upset win over ranked (well, probably not after today) Iowa. I go back and forth on this Hancock's.

mbroo5880i Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Started with KC9 and will end with Still Austin Cask Strength while watching....football, no. Ice Skating, no. Hallmark Christmas movie, yes. The longer the movie plods along, the more pours I am having. I don't even understand the plot on this one....normally, girl meets boy, they hate each other, then they love each other, then they fight, then they love each other. But, this one is focused on black and white, then color, then black and white, then color. Crap, time for another pour. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I had the last couple of pours of a 750 of MM last night. I opened up my last MM 1.75 and refilled the 750. Reckon it’s time to grab another handle. See what I did there? Grab another handle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 This is one of the earler picks from this distillery, after they started the program, or so I was told when I bought a couple bottles a few years ago. I'll leave it up to you to guess the distiller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grady330 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Just purchased and popped a ECBP C 923. Been searching for it. My LS shot me a text he got ONE in. He stashed it aside for me. 13 years 7 months in the barrel!! 133 proof!!! Flavors are amazing and drinks below the ABV. Going to do a SBS with my absolute favorite ECBP C922 . We will see if this one becomes the new king. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
