0895 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Such a fantastic pour. Not for everyone though. This half bottle was given to me by a buddy who was tired of it. The wife didn’t care for it either, saying it’s too woody. Oh well. I enjoyed it! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it interesting that the descriptions of 1910 and WRDO are very similar, both are B-F products, and yet they taste a bit different when compared sbs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_OKC Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Two more harvests in my bunker beatdown. Too lazy (under the influence) to post either in the proper forum; apologies. Pat 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general I have been avoiding “ double oak” “groovy oak stave” bottlings. Don’t want to stray too far off the path of what I enjoy. I am afraid the bourbon bottlers will follow the path to perdition that certain single malt scotch and Irish distillers have traveled, i.e. screwing with what made them successful in the place. I am a firm believer in the “KISS” theory of things, Keep It Simple Stupid!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a firm believer in the “KISS” theory of things, Keep It Simple Stupid!. I hear ya. But the Old Forester 1910 that you liked is double oaked and made by the same people as Woodford Double Oak (Brown-Forman). If you like the 1910 you might want to give WRDO a shot too if you find one at a good price... just an idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried them sbs and found that I liked the Woodford a hair better and it could be found approximately $5 cheaper here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are two of the best priced bottles out there. My goal: To see if I can tell the difference blind. Chocolate, mmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Spring cleaning? Tidying up a bit because we have a company coming over in the morning to give us an estimate on new windows for our house. When it came to my bourbon/computer room, I decided to clean house a bit. I’d been holding on to a couple of bottles for sentimental reasons. I’d also saved a couple for blending, and a couple more for freezer bottles. Pffffffffft. Gone. The second picture is a last minute substitute. I guessed correctly that the remnants of the 750 ml of my Weller Blend would fit in the empty 200 ml Dant. Also and FWIW, we no longer have a big blue bin for recycling. The city saw fit to provide all new trash and recycle bins. So, now it’s out to the big brown bin. Gonna skip “with the yellow top” after this. New garbage and recycle bins in the third pic. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Ah, the old Weller 12 bottle. I need to open one soon but I have somewhat of a hard time bringing myself to open one because they just seem so special to me...but they taste so good! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
