re: Whiskey/Bourbon/Scotch Volume III

Need some opinions:

We are waiting on an answers on a Russell's barrel.

We were offered a barrel of whistlepig 10 or 12. We were also offered a 1792 Full Proof.

I don't want to get stuck with an expensive whistlepig barrel.

The full proof is interesting. I also requested an Elijah barrel.


Interest on the above (I know Russell's already)?

I’d say no. But what’s the actual age statements on these?

Literally can’t go wrong with a 1792 FP.

Gonna be a great night

I have not had many FP that did not taste very similar to each other

I’d be interested in all, haven’t tried any WP picks.

2PD, this is quickly becoming one of my favorite daily sippers.

Many of the 10/12s picks are actually 15-18 yrs. and some are decent


How’s the sw sb? In comparison to uu? If you’ve had it. I was about 10 min too late on an R&L yesterday. Haven’t had the sb yet just lots of uu and straights. Not a big fan of the straights. But the uu’s are absolutely delicious

No way to tell age before picking. Just blind samples.

I agree. Some are outstanding...many of their picks are meh

It’s solid, they use the same blending method for the UU and the SB, the SB is just proofed down to 100. I’ve never had the straight.

Have another UU on the way here now

They have been hitting weekly here in Georgia. So have stocked up on quite a few batches. But have never grabbed a small batch.
