callmeox Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 After a WT101 whiskey sour with dinner, I'm putting a serious hurtin' on the bottle of ORVW 10/90 (over a few cubes of ice) after a very full day at the beach. I love being on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighTower Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I cracked that Maker's Mark 101 gold label on Friday night, and I must say it was very enjoyable. I will get into more depth at another time, but the proof was an improvement but it also looks and tastes older than the ~6 years that they bottles Maker's at now.Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attila Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 EC 12yr and wondering what all the commotion is about. Definately no better than Makers Mark. Gimme PVWFR or Blantons over this anyday.I saw a thread earlier that said that PVW Family Reserve 13 yo was very much like a bourbon, despite being a rye. Can anyone recommend to me a rye that is unlike a bourbon and unlike PVWFR? Just a note, the next three bottles on my shopping list (bless you July bonus) are WTRB, WT12yo and WT Rye.

CorvallisCracker Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Can anyone recommend to me a rye that is unlike a bourbon and unlike PVWFR? The Wild Turkey rye and the regular Sazerac (that we call "Saz Jr", comes in what I call an "old timey" bottle) do not smell or taste like bourbon (at least not to me).

smokinjoe Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I agree 100% with Scott in regards to the Baby Saz. It is wonderfully distinctive. JOE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBOmarc Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Pappy 23 all by itself, for now. Will also consider the Full Van Winkle flight this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesW Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Pappy 23 all by itself, for now. Will also consider the Full Van Winkle flight this evening.I'm with you on that. Started with Very Special Old Fitz 12 yr. Great bourbon, even better once you let it breath a while. I used my frother on it for a few seconds and it really opened up nicely, sweet. Now I'm thoroughly enjoying my Pappy 15. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilidawg7 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 In honor of the new addition to Scott's family (here) I am working on a healthy pour of PVW 20. I still need to get my hands on a bottle of the 15 y.o. as I have heard many great things about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callmeox Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 There's lots of Pappy 15 down here in Myrtle Beach. I'm resisting the urge to take a bottle home with me as I've already got some other stuff but I think the urge will win out.I'm not adverse to grabbing one for someone if their home collection is lacking.This ORVW 10/90 is too darn tasty. It is way to smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
