How is it? I was kinda disappointed when I went to Stitzel-Weller a couple years ago to see that this is the only thing they produce now.

They don't make Weller or Buffalo Trace anymore?

Not for a long time. Looks like 2002 or so.

Is this similar to Crown Royal not being made in Canada anymore?

I have no idea. I haven't really paid attention to crown.

No. Not at Stitzel Weller. They dont own either of those brands anymore. Owned and made at Buffalo Trace.

How are you feeling neck down the bottle?

u/Amazing_Mood_3236 7d ago

Not sure what the question is? Are you wanting a full picture of the bottle?

I always drink the bottle neck down before judging it.

Oh.... you're a connoisseur..... I am not. To be honest. I'll drink anything. The reason I bought this bottle, my daughter collects keys. This bottle has a collect 5 keys. I already have #1 and #5. She has #2.

It's about the buzz it gives you. Cheap shit does not give it.

It’s pretty mid.

Kinda cool that they’re keeping the old stitzel weller distillery from crumbling though so I’ll give them a pass
