Been in Ky this whole week, visiting our UK student, stalking Bardstown for the daily morning drop at HeavenHill in hopes of a WHH17… alas, two skunks (no drop) and grenades the other two. We had a hotel in Bardstown on Friday night and they serendipitously announced the OF13SSV. They cancelled our hotel reservation and we had to regroup and go back to Lex for Keeneland, UK/Vols… completely shot and wanted to sleep out on line. Just too old and tired for that… My son, like a champ, went to Bardstown, charged me $100 for his time and muled me a bottle. ❤
I had the VVS 13 yr at the event as well and it was great. I was surprised at the sweetness of it in comparison to the VVS 14 year released in 2018. I find that the Anderson Club 15s have more of the vintage funk and even with the lower 86 proof they seem to have more oak presence.
Thanks for letting us in on a bottle bone of us all own our taste unless we pay some ridiculous secondary price. Don't care about the history or the price.
I gotta wonder exactly how it was stored for 12 years. There had to have been some sort of effect that had on the juice. Even if it was extremely air tight with minimal head space, I still wonder if something happens to it! Just like old dusties. I'm sure there's some scientific study that could be done, but how does that play out on the palate?? It seems almost impossible to know for sure
meh, won't bother paying msrp (or ridiculous markups) as someone mentioned in the comment: $1,999.00. Guess people still pay this much during inflation. Irony. too tired of bourbon "hunting". i'm done.
@@Ona1000 Anything above 200-300 is not worth. Unless there is a very special occasion (where I need to brag I have this special bottle so you drinking it is special.) I know how much it costs to make these bottles of brown juice. Knowing that, I just can’t pay that much. Pure madness to chase highly allocated while paying insane amount of dollars hairs.
I find it hard to believe over 10 years in a stainless steel vat has zero, I mean zero, effect on the end product. Maybe I’m just cynical about a bottle I will neverrrr see.
I think we all just want someone to look at us the way Sara looks at the whiskey after smelling it ruclips.net/video/AG7YvpzHjes/видео.htmlsi=GlaOwHQcthAs_m7U&t=180
Congrats on the bottle! I will experience this by watching y’all, as this will be another unicorn for us.
Sounds great. I inherited my grandfather's 1965 Old Fitzgerald BiB Old Iron Sides decanter edition, and it's the best sip I've ever had!
Sounds great but a quick search and that goes for $1,999.00 if you can find it. Congrats on getting to taste it and enjoy.
Don’t trust google prices. Secondary is $1,000 and coming down
Thank you both for the video 🥃
Looks great! Hope one day to find some of that 90s bourbon in my collection
Must be nice ❤🥃😁
How do the OF19 or OF17 compare? I remember 19 finishing in top 10 of 2022😀

lol I just watched Sarah fall in love with a bottle of bourbon.
This is good to hear, especially when OF has kind of a bad rep compared to other premium offerings from HH

WHISKEY CHEERS 😎
Maybe someday I’ll get to taste the funk.
Sounds like another trip back to Covington and Revival Vintage Spirits for the old stuff is in order!😀
Great place, love it there!

Absolutely. Without a Time Machine I don’t think we’ll ever be able to know!
Never going to see it at sane prices.
Could have sworn that was a bong
What a bottle!
We're*
Not super sure of the point of this one
