I truly believe that when you blind similar whiskey the outcome will/can change. I blinded all my 100 proofers twice now and the winner of the first time didn’t make final four the last time I did it. I think it’s a good exercise to see how my palate has changed

Trent picking the 1910 last had me gasping for air. I know it's one of his favorites, and it's on many people's favorites lists, and mine too. It's ok, some days some stuff just tastes way different than usual.

I have started to do the same thing Trenton said about picking up notes on the nose. I smell all sorts of stuff differently and more intentionally now than before I started my bourbon journey. It may bring some whack nose notes sometimes but it has helped me a lot trying new stuff picking up notes.

Fun! My dad turns 70 on 1/1/25... so, soon. I've been trying to get a cool bottle for him. I KNOW a store has an old rip vw just sitting in their back room. They have "plans" to out it out, then it's in a "raffle" then they cancel that, then I go in and they sold it one guy told me, then the next week another guy said they are holding it til Christmas. I'm trying not to annoy them.. I only inquire once a week about it but the story changes every time! It's so maddening trying to buy a reasonable priced gift for my dad (who is my hero, and also a Curt (with a C)). Anyways, cheers- maybe I'll just look for another gift for him this year...but its 70!! Soooo I'm compelled to keep trying.

I agree with you that OF1910 is a little too drying on the aftertaste, but it's nose is so NICE!. That's why I normally mix in some OF 1920 to brighten it. It might now have been so drying had it been first instead of last. Nice review. I was wondering about Coopers, but now I don't have to purchase one.

Happy Birthday Kurt 🎂 I would have rather seen the Old Forester 100 proof signature series rather than the Early times going head-to-head with the 1897 because of the unbelievable difference in price and both @ 100 proof. all my local liquor stores are out of the 1924 but also at 100 proof and upwards of $115 (much higher online) a bottle I would go with the Old Forester Redstone Barrel Proof Single Barrel @ 130-135 proof at $84 all day every day. Great review as usual guys and Cheers! 🥃

I was in Gardiner Mt years ago for an extended period and had access to hard-to-find bottles at the state run store. I made a booze trip and had been drinking Cooper's Craft and had access to ECBP, Eagle Rare, JD barrel proof...lots of stuff that was hard to find elsewhere...and I ended up just rebuying the Cooper's Craft. It was around $27-ish and was so enjoyable, to me, as a sipper it just didn't make sense to buy anything else. They also had an Old Rip 10 for about $200 which I passed on too. Not a fan of ET but everything else is solid for me

I'm really conflicted about having missed the 1924 at SRP! I can find it for about $250 at best, and I just can't justify it. I would really like to see a blind and/or just a comparison between the Old Forester 1897 and the Old Forester (Signature) 100 Proof, since they're both Old Forester 100 proofs, it would be interesting to hear your take on how they line up with one another.
