The Pappy's did come in today! I picked up a bottle of the 15 and the 20 year. Unfortunately the Black Maple Hill didn't make it today but should be there tomorrow.

My initial impression of the 20 year is that is isn't as quite as strong of flavor at the 15 yr (lower proof might be contributing to that) but it finishes much nicer - not nearly as hot and very smooth in comparison. I'm not so sure it is worth the over 2x premium over the 15 yr, but I would have to say at this point that it is my new favorite!

I'll have to see what the Black Maple Hill brings to the table...

Yes I noticed your other post..my impression last March was as I wrote before. I have brand new bottles of both and certainly will be tasting them again soon, along with the 12 year old Pappy's that I just bought!

Funny timing, just saw this article on Fox and remembered seeing this thread the other day ...
