Guys,
A while ago I posted about receiving some pretty interesting bourbon in exchange for a little side project I took on. Results:
The special old reserve is pre-prohibition - distilled 1917, bottled 1932.
The very old fitz is basically the bees knees of bourbon. SW from when van winkle was running it. 1950/1958.
The samples are various oddities that I plan on blind tasting tonight.
And a pretty interesting thread on the ams/special old reserve, and just prohibition whiskey in general, from sb:

Happy new year!
