Never seen the 12 year, but do have a bottle of single barrel select.

Y’know … I quite like it. Good flavor, but still pretty smooth.

Finally broke open the Heaven Hill 17. The nose is amazing. It’s a little oak-heavy, but really a very well-balanced bourbon. Delightful!

Didn’t really have a lot of expectations, always a little nervous opening a new bottle. But I like Heaven Hill products and have heard good things about this one. It’s definitely more of a “special occasion” bottle than an “every day” one.

Gotcha, thanks.
I just know different folks who save a bottle of wine, or a bottle of hootch, and when we tap into it, it’s always fun to see if it’s what they expected, better, worse, etc., …

Comparing Eagle Rare 17 with Heaven Hill 17. The nose is surprisingly similar on both, but the ER is way better.

I haven’t tried this yet, so have no idea if it’s actually any good. But I love the bottle and the fact that my brother sent it to me. (Because we ARE Nelson brothers.) Attachment: 1DE46AC7-5D8C-4194-B45C-408FB7126AE9.jpeg What I DO know, is that the 2nd pick Leuken’s Barrel Pick Stagg Jr is the best Stagg I’ve ever tasted outside of George T. Stagg. And it’s better than some releases of that. Attachment: 2D4F6F4E-0291-434C-BD24-5CD84054E321.jpeg
