I passed on this today...waiting for 923...
I’d probably pass on another one as well since I have a few backups of it. I think it’s pretty good but definitely not as good as A123 or C922. I’m actively pursuing C923 as well. Hope everyone who wants it gets lucky and finds it…I think it’ll be tougher to get than normalI passed on this today...waiting for 923...
I like B523. I don’t know why people lost their shit with it having ONLY an 11yr 5mo age statement. Is it their best work…absolutely not, but like you, I haven’t had a batch that I didn’t like either. You should enjoy B523 very much.I will have a bottle of this soon enough thanks to @Hornet How does it compare to the other ECBP's? I am guessing it is awesome.
I have read a few reviews that are describing the C batch from this year as amazing, even possible a whiskey of the year candidate. I haven't had an ECBP that I didn't like.
I cracked this last night.

The first time I had HH BIB, I thought, "Meh." But I had been drinking pretty big ryes that night and my palate was blown.First time, wow, I’m a fan!! $49 at retail.
Good pour for sure. Especially after the bottle breaths.The first time I had HH BIB, I thought, "Meh." But I had been drinking pretty big ryes that night and my palate was blown.
I'm glad I gave it a second chance. I think I've had about half the bottle sitting on the bar of my bourbon game's primary host.
I plan to look for it locally and buy him a replacement (and one for my own bar as well).
The Crested is quite good. I have a friend who travels to the UK periodically and will always bring as much back as he can.
