The label on the stagg on the right looks off, clearly they are all fake. Better send them to me for safe destruction.

I haven’t seen any Weller bottles in my state in over 2 years.

I have a 1.75 that a friend traveling through Texas picked up for me. That's the only bottle I've ever seen in person.
I also have three.
1) This tastes like whiskey
2) This tastes like good whiskey
3) This tastes like really good whiskey!
Why is Texas disqualified?
Because Weller grows on trees there from what I hear
No. SR is easy to get, but not anything else. Got to have a contact, a relationship, a store with a loyalty points system (what I'm doing) or be willing to pay secondary.
I'm saving the points I earn (1 ticket for every $20 spent) for either a Weller 12 (40 tickets) or Antique 107 (30 tickets) When I have enough tickets, then I can buy the bottle at retail.
SR is what we are talking about.
My bad... Reading is hard.
I got you!

I've never seen a Weller in PA ever!

I know this stuff can be very polarizing, but I loved both batch 2 (11yr) and 3 (13yr). Hoping this batch 4 is even better!
I read that this batch is basically barrels of batch 2 that were intentionally set aside to age for two more years. Have to say that if this neck pour is any indication, this is a really good bottle!

We'll see if I still taste bubble gum.

Found this 2021 store pick hiding in the back of the cabinet.
Interesting funk about this one that I just can’t put my finger on. Not the first Old Scout bottle that I’ve noticed a similar funk in as well. Anyone have any experience with the Old Scout lineup? I’m 99% certain this is sourced MGP juice and I’ve never tasted this funk on any of MGP’s stuff except this brand.
I have it because my buddy bought a ton years ago for $20. You cannot buy weller around here. It’s all “allocated”. Even the SR

Also a great bottle.
I think it is $23 here. I have passed on a ton of WSR, passed on it again today. we seem to get it every week here if you show up on the day for allocated drops.
I took my wife and another couple out to the restaurant where my son is the bar manager. He treated me with a little taste of a couple of unicorns...

And what did you think?
You guys are going to think I'm an idiot. I liked the Old Rip better. The GTS is just so hot. But both were amazing.
Old Rip was like an even better Antique 107. Which was in my top 2 or 3 before I'd tried these.

Love these KC store picks! Consistently great!

I've never warmed up to Weller. Let's see what a year more on the journey does for it.

I definitely wouldn’t think that. That GTS at basically 139 proof is gonna drink hot for even the most experienced high proof lovers. If you’re not used to that high of an abv, it’s can be an eye opener lol. I can only imagine how intense the flavors are in that pour! If that ORVW is a better version of Antique 107, then that sounds awesome too! They’re both unicorn bottles to most people, so I don’t think there’s nothing wrong with your choice of favorites amongst those two.
I’m very jealous that you got to try both of those in one night
Indyscammer
Flush
I can tell you as you drink more high proof it grows on you. It used to hurt me and turn me off. Now it is something I prefer. YMMV
