Randy, very nice indeed. :) Glad to hear you'll be at the sampler in April, we'll finally get to meet up! :lol: It would be great to try some of that weller, I'll bring a bottle of the weller from SW that LeNell has too.

It was bottled as Weller 12yo but was in fact 160 months old. BT did a heck of a job refinishing the barrel and included it in the shipment. I've tasted through a bottle of it with friends and it has the cotton candy sweetness I always get from SW but less woodiness than one would expect from an older bourbon. Great stuff. Some will make it too the Sampler in April.

Randy,
BT really did do a great job on that barrel. What are you going to do with it?
Can't wait to taste a 13 year old Weller single barrel.
Nice photos of those bottles sitting on the barrel, right beside the rolling copper still... :wink:
As a Kentuckian, I consider it my civic duty to drink Bourbon, smoke and bet the ponies. Its a tuff job, but someone has to do it...
