fosmith Posted Thursday at 08:06 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:06 PM Wild Turkey 101 is regularly $29.99 at BevMo, or, as I like to call it, BevPayMo. But it's currently one of the items included in their Buy One, Get One for $.05 sale. So, I bought two for $30.04 or $15.02 each plus tax. Not bad. I've only had one of the "new bottle" release several years ago and liked it so I'm anxious to try it again given that I've heard mixed reviews. If it's as good as I remember, I'll probably get four more at that price. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a really good single barrel pick that the restaurant did. They serve it in the bar, as well as sell bottles. Since the wife and I enjoyed it so much, I bought a bottle.

I haven't bought one but it is making the rounds on local tater bourbon social media. I'll wait until it's available on store shelves because I'm sure it's very solid for that price. The barrels going into this are definitely not as well curated as the 8, 9 and 10-year Old Fitz BiB Decanter series (because the new 7 is more mass produced), but every one of the 8-10 year BiB decanter bottles that I've had have been stellar. Early feedback from reviews I've seen are that the new OFz 7 year is true to the OFz flavor profile and not similar to Larceny/Larceny BP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early feedback from reviews I've seen are that the new OFz 7 year is true to the OFz flavor profile and not similar to Larceny/Larceny BP. I tried it sbs with an old gold / green label BiB. The new product is definitely more in the old fitz profile. It initially comes off a bit sweet and includes a hit of the spearmint that the old stuff has. It’s pretty good, but not really up to the levels that most of the fancy decanters hit. The old gold/green label stuff seemed darker, more complex and just all around a better product. So similar to the old white label HH6 BiB, they brought the old fitz back a few years later (after hiatus) at a higher price point ($50 vs. $20), but lesser product. While it’s disappointing for us old timers, the young guns will never know what they’re missing. Edited 22 hours ago by 0895 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clueby Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago Thanks to @0895 for picking mine up as well and for bringing the old bottle to sbs with. My thoughts concur with his (shock!!). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was out and about this weekend in South Texas and didn't discover it anywhere. It's still early on. Glad to hear the flavor profile is aligned to the typical Old Fitzgerald profile.
