NDN98 Posted Wednesday at 03:05 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:05 AM I said goodbye to this one tonight. While I enjoyed the bottle, I honestly didn’t find it any better than most of the Russell‘s Reserve Private Select’s that I’ve had. This is one I probably will not buy again, considering the price tag compared to the private barrels. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it seems you’d be content with saving the money and going with a few bottles of the select. I came to the same conclusion with Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked. I could buy no less than 2 store pick of the double oaked and still have money left over 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had nearly forgotten that I still had it; was in the back of the bunker for a long time. It was really quite flavorful, more than I had recalled. When it was released, it was the focus of a somewhat hokey marketing effort, thus the "aged in Stitzel-Weller Barrels" label. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWIndy Posted Friday at 01:44 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:44 AM If I recall correctly, this was older barrels of Stitzler weller juice that Seagrams bought to mix in their Seagrams seven back in the 80’s. It was “found” in a warehouse that Jefferson’s bought and they marketed very carefully to not cross any legal lines. It was great sourced juice and gave a jump start to Jefferson’s early on. Enjoy and Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy and Cheers True, that story sounds familiar; seems like I've read or heard that somewhere. With 20/20 hindsight now, it's amazing to think how much stellar whiskey must have been lost as blends into Seagram's Seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure I agree with you, but I do respect your decision 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
