Guess who scored a couple bottles of W.L.Weller 12....as close as you can get to Pappy Van Winkle without actually scoring some PVW.


I shall report back

It's been a long while since I had a bottle of Pappy.........all that being said yes and no.The Pappy is good but at twice the price......No.I'll take the WLW 12 all day long over the PVW 13.Now when we bump it up a notch to the PVW 21.............ya know a hundred bones versus 25 for some great 12 year old bourbon,I think I still go with the WLW 12 YO.I don't even drop a c-note on a great bottle of Scotch any more.

Any Balvenie is good IMO.

Frank have you tried W.L.Weller 12 yo?I'm impressed at 25 bones.Something about this 12 yo stuff....Elijah Craig is another good friend and about the same price.Believe it or not I like both better than Elmer.

I'm pretty sure I have had the WLW 12 but it's been quite a while. Often, but not always, I prefer wheated bourbon over what can be overly spicey rye types. I will go searching for a new jug ASAP! You are generally right on the mark and I seem to recall liking it more than the 107 proof Weller.

I also like E Craig alot, but I'd have to snag a bottle and do a taste test with Elmer before I'll commit that EC is better. But you are correct, the pricing is silly, especially since I have been able to find Elmer for $24. Either way, it's a no lose debate.

Moving up a step or two (or 3) in price, have you tried Rock Hill Farms? About $40-45 around here, but worth it at least once...in my opinion anyway.

Which is the Dickel you like so much? Every time I go to the shpo I am not sure what to buy.

I have had the doublewood also (great stuff) but this was Caribbean Cask, aged in rum casks instead of sherry, I am very new to scotches but this stuff is so good. Had it with a great HDM petit robusto tonight, the smoke supplied nice soft spiciness in the long finish and the scotch was smooth and sweet as a chaser...relaxation and stress reduction was achieved!

Wish I had a 'gansett to go with it, eh?
