I guess there’s no better time than now to try the sample you sent.

It’s very good, Jim. Thank you.

The nose is funky oak. I’m not getting much more than that. The palate is oak and spice. It’s very balanced and reminds me of RR13 as well. A good long finish that is a little drying from the oak, but still great.

Even once is epic

Savor ever drop sir

You too.

Had a hankering for some petty goodness this evening.

This has gone up in price locally. I used to be able to get it for $65 bucks. I think its in the $85 range. If I'm going to spend $85. I might as well spend $100 and get me a bottle of Lagavulin 16 (which is what I did lol)

I haven't had a pour of anything this week. I'm looking forward to a couple tonight!

 

[Indyscammer]

What is the going rate on Remus Repeal and Gatsby? I finally found some locally but they are asking $200 and $400 for them. Assuming this is secondary +?

 

[FDLmold]

Retail is about 110 and 240. Both your prices are above secondary I believe.

A jar of water, and not even a full one! Were you a bad boy this year? Did you get a lump of coal too?

Saw the New Riff malted in the wild here today for the first time. I still have 2 bottles I picked up when we picked our donkey juice but it is good stuff!

so what do you think

 

[Indyscammer]

Trying this again. The first pour was not my favorite. It made a hell of a bourbon and ginger though.

Edit: I should focus better

There is a bitterness here I don't care for. Less pronounced than my first sip. They need better quality barrels? Not sure.....making shit up. But the bitter is not my friend. But-I bet this is really good in the bottom half of the bottle.

so what do you think

Very nice. Sweet on the nose, lots of sugar, dark vanilla and some black cherry. Palate matches almost exactly with some added spice and oak. Gets darker as it sits and finishes. I don't necessarily see why this goes for crazy secondary prices (I've never seen it around here under $300), but it's a really nice pour.

I’ll take those off your hands if you feel that strongly about them

We're in the middle of an icepocalypse. This should warm the cockles.

Also enjoying this right now!

Did a blind taste test, and the B520 won hands down!

View attachment 1040863

Good

B520 is my favorite batch. I've got a few of them hidden away.

Me too. Mainly due to this thread back in the day. Funny part is I’ll have them for quite some time because unlike many, I can’t stand basically the entire Heaven Hill lineup.
