It is their annual limited release. It is the pre release version at cask strength, which has actually never come to the US. Supposed to be like Oog but a little sweeter.

Yeah, I noticed that after my post. Pa. seems to be the only place stateside where it's available.

Seems to be selling for a lot more everywhere else, but I suspect this is due to flipping.

edit: I hesitated, and missed out.

Willett has released their first in house bourbon, believe its 4 year old. I had their 3 year old in house Rye when I was there, wasn't that impressed, too young.

If you are a tobacco user, you may find that the marriage of Stranahan's and a nice smoke is unlike any other.
I have no idea why this is.

Agreed. I used to drink Stranny with a cigar pretty often back in the states. And I think it is (or was) the mildly spicy vanilla notes that made it work.
If you're into blasphemy + a decent buzz it also pairs well with TenFidy imperial stout.

ps This was a gift from my wife's bestF, with whom she drank 3/4 of a bottle of a one-off offering of single-cask Stranahan's one night while I was out of town. I'd filled it myself alongside their original head distiller. The debt remains...unpaid.

Damn, I doubt that debt can be repaid! Awesome story.

Have you compared it to any of the 9 prior batches?

Ive been on the lookout for the Bou-Rye ...I might settle and grab a bottle of High West American Prairie instead.

Son of Bourye was pretty yummy, and may be more easily found.
