gblick Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Are you sure it's THE 97? Not sure you want to get more of that one. If there are any Splits hanging around, it's usually the 97's. For a good reason...I'd take a pass on those.Oh no, what's wrong with the 1997 split-label WT12's? I've only got two in my bunker that I've yet to open, and they are both from 1997 (02/06/97 & 10/02/97). The only time I've ever had the split-label WT12 is at Randy's, and I thought it was very good, some of the best WT I've ever had! Now I hear you saying this about the only two bottles that I have. I wish I hadn't read this. Maybe you're just joking because it's a new guy asking about it, yeah that's the ticket (me, telling myself: "Yeah, he was only joking...ha-ha").:bs: (I hope..)

smokinjoe Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Hee, Hee. Yep, just playin', Gus. Your Splits are safe, and delicious. For some reason, felt like raising some rabble last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gblick Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Gblick, Haven't had the gold 12. Have had WT 8/12/14/rye/1855/AS.My question is how the Gold (any) qualifies with the WTMDS 14? Thanks in advance, A.D.Sorry, but I haven't had the gold 12 either, so I can't answer that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attila Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 My question is how the Gold (any) qualifies with the WTMDS 14? I have hear that the 14 is similar to the AS and the Gold blows the doors off of the AS, so I would assume that the gold blows the doors off the 14 as well.

Necessity is the mother of invention right? So, if necessity and assumption breed, what do we get? just curious there D.I'm thinking that your line of thinking is faulty, or I am/are/is were/becomedrunk-well, I concede that. OK. So, I am drunk, but I contest your ass-sertion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourbonguyjapan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Just googled the WTAS. Nope. Nothing like the 14 (or Master's blah, blah, blah).Found an American Spirit for a song and tried it. Not great, not bad. The WTMDS or, 14 as it might be shortened to; is something profound if not prolific, orgasmic etc./ec al...WOW! THIS SHIT FUKEN ROK'S!Good night all.

Virus_Of_Life Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 For anyone who hasn't searched and found enough evidence of it, the current export-only pales in comparison to the split label and gold foil that was originally sold here. I actually found the current 8year to be better than the 12year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually found the current 8year to be better than the 12year.Really? I find them to be different. By atleast 20 bucks. Seriously though, they are a bit apart. The 8yr is decent at it's price and the 12 yr is well 20 bucks different. Value-wise the 8 year is where it's at. Especially, the 1000ml bottling.
