Very very very nice Walt! Hey by chance is that the W.L. Weller 12 year reserve bottle behind the Knob Creek? If so do you know where you can get that, as in did you find it locally and can it still be found? That's kinda a "jackalope" sighting lol, as in it doesn't happen but once in a blue moon. Weller is nearly gone in CO, can barely find there normal base release, forget about the Antique 107 and the 12 year is as mythical as a woman passing gas ie. it doesn't happen.
What a keen eye you've got! Yes, that is the 12 year, from the Wellers distillery and not the BT. It was getting harder and harder to find, but sometimes can be had by special order. I tried to get one of my local providers bring a case in for me but they couldn't. All they could get were 5 bottles and I snatched them all. Haven't seen it since. The new distillery should be providing some soon. Production has not ceased, but there has been strict allocations between BT companies.

Thanks for the great info, and hahah yeah a bit eagle eyed but only because that's a bit of one of those lower dollar "über-unicorns" (does that make it a quadra-corn?!). If you ever come across an extra bottle or two I'd pay you in damn near anything you want including kidneys.
Took a little road trip into Dr. Frankenstein's land today. Baylor Canyon I think it was called, managed by the BLM. nice hiking. Found a spot I'll be RVing at this year. Finishing the afternoon off with a 5 Vegas Limitada 2013 with some Jack Daniel's Single Barrel.
