Thank you for the detailed and honest review! I have the A123 and B523 and still have some C922 and even A122 and and stilling looking for a C923. I really enjoy ECBP in general and found C922 the best of 2022, and understand everyone agrees the C923 is the best of 2023 (and maybe the best BP overall of the entire year). So it sounds like the A124 is a pass at the usual $76 I have been paying. There are excellent alternative choices for 10-year BP whiskies in San Antonio, TX in the $55-65 price range.
IMO, I wouldn't pass on this at $76. It's a buy for me, and absolutely nothing to shake a stick at. It's still a fantastic whiskey. Everything can't and won't be A123 or C923. This is still a very nice BP bourbon. Cheers 🥃
I'm sure I'll pick it up if I see it. Finally found C923 a month ago. Good review Scott. On Wisconsin.
I find it odd that folks use C923 to measure A124. Hell, lower proof and age only showcase what HH is capable of. Personally, I'm all for the age variations. B523 held its own, and it was some good stuff after it had a few months to open up.
Cheers, and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. It's all about what you enjoy, and as long as you enjoy it, that's all that matters.
As far as comparing its only because tge A124 was following up C923 that we compare, we understand there will be differences a d it's interesting to see what they release and how each batch sets up for the next release. Naturally, we'll now compare B524 yo the A124 because they are sister batches. Cheers, and thanks for watching and commenting 🥃
10 years 9 months is getting to the range of store picks. It's only 2 months older and 5 proof points lower than the store pick I have open right now. It's still a decent deal for the money; but much less of a deal than it used to be.
Wouldn't that make it the same deal as Store Picks?
However, it's batch vs single barrel. Also, remember 10 yrs 6 months is the youngest whiskey in the blend.
I know that I'll grab a bottle when they appear here, probably end of February judging from past experiences. I'm kind of an outlier on last year's releases, not super hyped up over C923 though it is very good, and apparently liking B523 much better than most. But, hey, preferences are unique for everyone, and bottom line is that I've never met an ECBP that I didn't like. Always enjoy your take on releases, and I'll be prepared for the profile differences. Thanks much!
You nailed it on the head, IMO, they are always a buy, and at the end of the day, whatever it is you enjoy, that's perfectly fine, you're never wrong whwn it's something you enjoy. Cheers Doc! 🥃
I stocked up on C918 years ago and havent needed to buy any other releases, its good enough
You’re missing out!
No interest in trying how they've changed in 7 years? I was juat curious 🤔
I agree 👍
You’re not missing out on anything , C918 was a flavor + spice monster that puts everything since A121 to shame I think.
Would you trade one for the c923? I've never tried those batches
Solid review. The A batches the last few years have been solid, but the C batches have been a cut above. Is it weird that I'm already looking forward to C924? 😂
Not at all! It will be interesting to see how the batches progress and if or the ages of the batches will increase again in age. This one was for a good/avg ECBP. Cheers buddy 🥃
Great walkthrough. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and it sounded really good! Cheers!
Cheers Jon, I appreciate you watching the video as always. Do you guys get these in your neck of the woods? Cheers 🥃
@@mybourbonjourneyI would have said "no", but a couple of months ago B523 Showed up. So .... rarely? Anyway, always good to hear your thoughts and it may be a while before the "below 12" settles down.
WHAT LASER CODE?
I really don't pay any attention to it to be honest.
I think this one was 8675309 lol 😆 😂 🤣
Laser code on this one was 8675309, lol 😆
Hate that it is 10 years but it is to be expected. Thanks for the notes and review. I look forward to see how air will change this one
I'm interested to see what a,little more air time does for it also, I want to give it a month or so. Cheers 🥃
Nice review. Awesome that you got a bottle already. I have not seen it yet. I did pick up a Larceny BP A124 last week while visiting TN. 🥃
How did you like the Larceny A batch this year?
Unfortunately I haven't seen it buy would love to find one and review it! Cheers buddy 🥃
@@iowafishguy9791 It is different from previous batches to me. More spice forward. I get hazelnut and raisin. It finishes peppery and dry. I did not get much molasses, maple or vanilla like previous batches. It is different, but still good. 🥃
Nice analysis Hock, im buying 👍,fyi- i let JC know im loving the art spirits double oak, one of my fav m&j’s 😊
Cheers Dunny, thanks for watching buddy! I think people will enjoy this one.
Long time viewer. Love your thoughtful reviews. Would it be fair to say B523 is better than this batch?
Tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me you didn't watch the video, lol 😆
To be expected it wouldn't measure up to C923 but everyone will want to get this one to make sure 🙃
It's still IMO a nice one to have, not going to disappoint a lot unless they are comparing this to A123 or C923. This is still a very nice ECBP IMO. Cheers 🥃
@@mybourbonjourney right right, more that the bar is high now. (I did email you : )
I must have missed your email. Can you send it to me again? Thanks buddy 🥃
@@mybourbonjourney ok and chk spam : )
The bourbon whisky scene is producing too many of these special releases at higher prices and hype.. is it worth it?? nope, these are going to be allocated and at secondary prices, not worth 300$ when there are already plenty of on the shelf 10yr old on the shelves for 50-60$
To right!!
Common issue for spirits due to demand and limited releases
...not at barrel proof. Mostly at 90 proof and 100 proof.
I'd still say at $75 this is still an incredible deal, and remember 10 years 9 months is the youngest whiskey in this batch. You're going to potentially get a slight different profile frkm a single barrel. It's been years now and you really don't see much of a mark up on secondary. Also not many barrel proof bourbons at 10+ years for $50 or $60. If you find them buy them. This is released 3 times a year and everyone knows they're coming and with anticipation. I respect your opinion though. Cheers 🥃
Dude sounds like another poor mf that crys about life. Dude stfu no one cares that you cant afford a bottle.
I wish you had the B521 batch to compare it too. That was considered one of the “bad” batches at 118 proof.
This one is by no means bad, it juat at this point feels like middle of the road and a solid sipping ECBP. Cheers 🥃
@@mybourbonjourney yeah for sure, no ECBP is bad to me, but I’m just wondering if it will get the B521 treatment lol.
For me its still better than the B523 But I know there will be a lot of push back because if the age in this one. Cheers buddy 🥃
And yet b521 was a solid bottle. Better than half the crap that comes out each year.
Agreed on the B523. It wasn’t my jam.
It needs a few months of air.
I’ll take your word for it. I left it behind at my buddy’s place. No hard feelings ECBP B523.
never heard you say how you obtained a bottle of the new a124, not available here in texas
It was sent to me! Dropping now in a lot of states, keep your eye out. Cheers 🥃
Madison!?
Too hot...earthy and like eating corn husk leaves
119 proof is the lowest I have seen on an ECBP in years.
Sad times we are living in.... Make sure you keep that in mind when you vote in November. Things can't keep going down that route
