Yes, I know Linn, especially since that last time it was in the line-up it bested ORVW 15 and Pappy 20. Those Wellers won this time though.

Posted: Sat Aug 26, 2006 1:14 pmJoe, I've often wanted to evaluate a bourbon totally blind. Just have someone pour a couple of ounces into my favorite glass, and leave me to write my tasting notes. No social interaction to color my viewpoint. No guessing the distillery or mashbill. No packaging/price to influance my opinion. Remove all factors of prejudice. Just my take and why. I am willing to bet that some very moderately priced bourbons would fair quite well against bourbons at twice the price.
