camduncan Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 I've actually got the exact add cut out of one of my Whiskey magazines and framed to go behind the bar at home Another very nice picture is the product lineup one at the back of the But Always Fine Bourbon book...but I'm bot about to cut that one out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvanwinkle Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Chuck: One addition to our line is the 23-year Pappy, which we don't choose to promote because we have so little to sell. Although, maybe I'll bring a bottle to WhiskyFest in Chicago & keep it under the table. It will be available again in mid-December. Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward_call_me_Ed Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Hi There, I haven't seen any of your line here in Japan. I keep reading about it though and would really like a taste. Do you sell it here? I will keep looking whether you do or not. Things do show up on the shelves that "shouldn't" be there.EdNice pictures, by the way.

gr8erdane Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 BT bottling line cam shows Pappy 23 is rolling off the line. I thought they came in the little black bags though. They are just wrapping them in tissue like the Pappy 15 or 20 I have bought lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rancastle Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I think it was Pappy 15, they bottled it yesterday, and labeled it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucky1 Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I think you're right Randy. It was black wax on the bottle which I think is the 15.Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyc Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Some time ago Julian said he only had 1 barrel of 23 to bottle this year, and all of that is earmarked for resturants/ bars. I believe he has a considerable number of barrels coming up the following year, If memory serves me. I had to chase it down, What Julian said......... The good thing is we are closer to the 40 barrels being bottled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8erdane Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 My Pappy 15s are green, not black. The 23s are black. I guess it could be that my screen colors are off a bit though and it could be green... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvanwinkle Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 We bottled 15-year Pappy this week along with some 12-year. No 23-year will be bottled until at least December 7th when some barrels become 23-years old. Our 15-year has a black capsule & the 23-year has gold wax. We have no green capsules.Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNbourbon Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Dane, my 23s are gold wax -- you might want to check yours again. If they're black, you might have a mold problem, and will want to drink them up quick . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8erdane Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I stand corrected then, as we have no better source. Guess I need that new pair of glasses sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musher Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 So, is $81.99 (plus tax, of course) a good price for Pappy 20 year old? I suspect it is.Now I just need to work up the fiscal courage to buy it before the sale ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camduncan Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 We pay a LOT more than that Downunder for the 12 & 15yo, so from our point of view - that is an excellent price. I'm not sure how it stacks up against other US retail prices, but it's certainly cheaper than the online US prices I've seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayton Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 So, is $81.99 (plus tax, of course) a good price for Pappy 20 year old? I suspect it is.I paid about $88 for mine, so that's a pretty good sale but not something that you have to get too upset about if you miss.I've still yet to crack mine open. Waiting for a good occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucky1 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 The last one I bought in Kentucky cost $75 including tax. In Indiana they get over $100. Unless you're going to Kentucky soon I'd say the $81 is a good price. It is worth the money... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedVette Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 My 2 bottles bought 6 months apart were both $77. Sometimes my store has good deals and sometimes, not so much. It is kinda fun watching the part time college student clerks when they ring up a bottle off this. First they check it to make sure the didn't make a mistake and then you can tell that they all think I'm getting ripped off, especially when you can get the good stuff, Jack Daniels, for under $20.

I'm now the proud owner of a nice red velvet bag. Oh, and the bottle of exquisite whiskey inside the bag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camduncan Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 That's excellent news... Whilst I can't afford the local US$310 asking price for the 20yo, the red velvet bag (and of course the whiskey) is definately a temptation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
