WP10’s are reliably very good...price point is slightly high, but getting it as a gift takes care of that!

TA, the 2020 WLW wasn’t getting great reviews, while the 2020 GTS is being called the best in a decade, so when given the choice between the 2, I chose the Stagg. Hope I chose wisely.

Also would like to know who the DB is going around BR buying all the bottles of BTAC from the restaurants. Based on conversations with several bartenders, they are paying Secondary prices, but not leaving any for the poors to get a pour or two.

WLW is getting tons of love. Minnick just placed it at number 2 whiskey of the year in his annual blind tasting.

Plus I am getting a bottle of stagg too trading one of my 19 staggs.

On top of that, you can trade a wlw for almost 2 staggs

Wish I could trade 1 of my 2019’s for a 2018 or 2020. Naturally in the low proof year I got 3.

What's the word on EH Taylor these days? I have not seen any Small Batch, Single Barrel, or Barrel Proof in a while. I believe Alexander's had a couple of Barrel Proofs in their raffle but that is all that I have seen.

Picked up a small batch in a “semi-rare” lottery. I see tags for it occasionally at stores here in Lafayette, but haven’t seen any on the shelf in a while.

What is the age on the EH Taylor small batch, 6-7 years?

One would think Buffalo Trace would be pushing out tons of their lower aged juice but that Janet happened. Hell, they still can’t keep up with the demand for regular BT that is being aged 4-5 years

Small batch is NAS, except for being BIB. So it's at least 4 years old.
