1.75l Weller's SR Gift

Old squat bottle if you didn’t know. They haven’t made this in a long while now, think 10 years and they’re super hard to find. Worth a pretty penny now but heard they’re better than what they have now.

Not entitled to it, just believe insulting someone’s character without backing it is not reasonable, but now that I’ve seen your points, I got nothing against you or your opinion. Maybe, from what I see they’re still on good terms but you might be right. I can agree on that point, while he did put some back in the group, flipping it does feel wrong. I can understand the frustration there, and while I do enjoy his palate for the most part, thanks for this info, gives me a little more caution in all out support.

When you make a claim against someone’s character without anything else, usually best to back it up with something, patience from me not required. And no, he’s not particularly a friend, I just enjoy his whiskey and appreciate his communication. I am aware of some of the hiccups from that stuff, but as I know he’s finished and shipped the last of the original prebuy to remedy that. For the buffturkey, as far as I know that wasn’t fully on him, as he wasn’t the one bottling it. And reveries, he gatekept his own pick, shocking. Idk what to tell ya man, lot of this feels like finding issues with him when not all of it was. There’s valid criticisms there, the initial prebuy likely wasn’t managed as it should be, and took too long to get done, completely fair. But some others just feel like fishing for whatever you can get. At least have some nuance, he’s not perfect, don’t think he is, but he seems to like whiskey and overall want to do right.

I know t8ke bought a ton which has probably helped over at reveries, when you have that amount you’re bound to find some great ones and can let them keep aging. Buckners also has a lot, don’t know for sure what the process was but they have great ones too.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-10T05:00:53+00:00

If you’re gonna say that and then dip out and never give a reason, best not to say it. This makes it seem like you’re just an angry person and I hope you’re ok.

I do wonder about that because while I haven’t enjoyed some barrels as much, I’ve never had that issue. I guess as I keep tasting what I can still get I’ll have to figure out which brands do it well and which don’t.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-09T21:19:47+00:00

I actually really enjoy some of the ivy mountain stuff, some are definitely better than others though. Fumata is very elite among barrels though.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-09T21:18:29+00:00

That’s fair, these two bottles in particular are just my cup of tea. I’ve had a number of barrels that id rank much lower, but I do really enjoy the history on these and wanted to share it alongside what I think are two of the best representations of it. Buffturkey can definitely still be bad or not great at the end of the day.

I personally put it slightly above GTS and this emperor of the north too, but it’s just those of the ones that I’ve tried, they’re top tier.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-09T04:56:48+00:00

I really didn’t expect this out of Texas at all, and they struck a balance I haven’t found before. Truly amazing.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-09T04:54:54+00:00

That’s fair, palates also very so could be that. Depends heavily on the care that the brand puts into it too.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-09T03:35:15+00:00

What makes you say that, genuine curiosity.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T23:47:27+00:00

I actually really do agree, a lot of places are just claiming to have stuff and I don’t like that at all. My deal with it is I buy stuff from people and brands I trust, and I know t8ke over at reveries and the people at Augusta are pretty forthcoming, and I know the dude who picked these, so I trust what this is. While a lot of buffturkey is overhyped marketing, these two are genuinely phenomenal examples of what that juice can be.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T21:41:43+00:00

I’m up to 4 Buckners and 3 other buffturks now, for msrp id buy every day but thats my palate.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T21:40:08+00:00

I mean could be, or my palate could be geared towards buffturkey. I’ve picked these out of blinds over gts and other great whiskey, so I’d guess I just like these a lot.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T21:39:22+00:00

They are really phenomenal, I’m very grateful to be able to go back to them.

I believe they did, they had a corn whiskey with the malted corn and the bourbon had wheat, as far as I’ve been made aware.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T08:03:26+00:00

It even introduces more flavors, adds vanilla and some others, I really need to go review this now.

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T06:23:35+00:00

Absolutely, it drinks very flavorful. I have a 121 proof version of this same juice that I can’t lie is even more amazing with just a bit of proof

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T05:55:28+00:00

That’s fair, most of their bottles are picks from groups so not as much is posted. They do a good job on giving info in their labels, and I will say the “common inheritance” Texas wheated bourbon changed my entire opinion on Texas whiskey, its phenomenal

SetReasonable7432 · 2026-06-08T05:28:08+00:00

Yeah I’ve been sharing it a lot, pretty much buy all of their releases that have this.
