He's got a point on this one. If they're trying to market as a premium brand, which they are trying to do, then they don't put off that image with the old bottles.


Just took a look in my liquor cabinet and it sure seems that the only bottles with handles are the everyday brands.

Mark is full of shite for sure. The day we lost the "transmission" was truly a day of mourning. I am sure at some point, Evangeline Parish schools will begin closing on that day. I hope to find one old bottle somewhere to do like others have said and pour the fine liquid from the new POS bottle into the old transmission.

Sir, I think that in some misguided way, you are calling Mr. Evan Williams and myself some sort of "commoner".

Pistols or daggers, your decision?

Simultaneously, we also introduced a lightweight PET 1.75L bottle, which is becoming increasingly popular on more expensive brands in the event that anyone had an issue with the new bottle.

Little known fact that prior to deciding on Old Charter 8 as a name,they almost went with Everyday Whiskey.

Handle-less handles of Charter 8. I finaly got a response from the commy bastads Eagle Rare, also made at Buffalo Trace, doesn't have a handle on its 1.75 liter bottle either.

Looks just like the other bottle but much larger. We had a few 3 packs made when we selected our own barrel of Eagle Rare 10.

It is a glorious sight to behold. My wife went on a business trip up to Lexington and brought me back a 1.75 autographed by the master distiller.

If the handle is that important you should love this new white whiskey.
