Reserve Whiskey Bourbon Tasting

[disneyman806]

Has anyone done this yet? If so, can you share what the pours were? Trying to decide if it's worth the price tag based of what could potentially be served. Thanks in advance!

It will vary depending on who the bartender is. Every tasting I've done has been different.

I know, just want to see what has been served before to get an idea of what they consider "reserve."

That's a great question...we did the regular bourbon tasting on a Fantasy 7-night and I thought the pours were very basic. The bartender also messed up the sequence, so we didn't even know the one time that we drank a good one (Blanton's) until the end, when she realized her mistake. I won't be doing tastings anymore, after that.

My wife did this last month (she loves a good whisky). They were Johnnie Walker Blue, Woodford Reserve Special Cask, Whistle Pig; the Boss Hog and Macallen rare cask black (this was the stupid expensive one).

This goes back a few years. This was on the Fantasy in the Meridian bar. I am sure it can change based on what is available.

Thanks all! Looking forward to it regardless if I keep that tasting or not.

We’re doing it in Dec. Given bar prices it’s a good deal plus you get to meet and chat with folks who have a similar interest.

So you're saying the Scotts can't spell?......

Sure is. Macallan & JW Blue are both Scottish, Whistle Pig is from Vermont & Woodford Reserve (Bourbon) is from Kentucky (we actually toured their distillery - it's right of I-64). My wife's 'daily' is Glenfidditch, which is actually pronounced 'Glen-fid-ick' as it's a Welsh name. The Scot CM who led the Reserve tasting was very well versed in his drink.
