Really depends on your tastes. The WLW is a fine example of a wheated bourbon at cask strength. It's a helluva pour to handle, but it's great. RR1198 is a completely different beast and a great example of a spicier bourbon with vanilla and caramel.

Anyway, was drinking with a family friend last night (he is late 60s) and he is a big bourbon guy. When Wlw came up in conversation he got all giddy like a little school girl. Has never tried it and has never had the connections to get WLW and I don't think that he has the means to buy one secondary. When I saw how excited this guy got I was like I have got to find a way to get this guy a bottle. If anyone would be willing to sell or trade a WLW shoot me an email JDneedsWLW@gmail.com Again I realize this is a real long shot but figured I would at least throw it out there. Hope everyone has a great Christmas, kwanzaa, & Hanukkah

great guy. He'd REALLY appreciate a bottle at retail. Thanks in advance

You baws gotta start hitting the mid-morning Christmas Day Mass! Not as crowded as the Eve Mass and allows you to start earlier! Merry Christmas!

If he has never had it, a taster would be a kind setup

Just mix up some PMP and put it in a PVW bottle. Or maybe even Benchmark.
