My grandparents are getting up in age and my mom and uncle are starting to help them go through 50 years or so of their stuff.

Here is what I get for being a good grandson, as you can see I have already gotten into a couple of them (all were still sealed) -

I believe they are all pretty much around the same vintage (early 80's). The Swing is absolutely stellar.

...or if you're my age, a nice, shiny quarter.

Does Chambord get better with age? :-)

Beats me. If not really a fan... :-)

That JW Swing bottle is pretty sweet. Love how it rocks back and forth. It tastes very good as well. Enjoy!!! :-)

wow, i bought my JW swing bottle last year and i thought it had just been released. (i had never seen it before then)

i guess not huh? the label looks a bit different from the old one to the new one. the bottle still "swings" though! lol

That's awesome! I was gifted some VO from '63 and '66. The '63 is gone, working on the '66. I'm not sure if it evolves or ages per se, but I think it tasted different (better) than the current production stuff. Kind of had that musty nose but was very very smooth and quite good. I had a thread over at CS about it that had some interesting discussion about if it ages/changes. When you try it, let us know what you think!

I just helped clean out my wife's grandparent's condo as they moved to Florida permanently. Unfortunately they drink too much and all the booze was new. :-)

I've been into it, it is really good. Very smooth.

I'm saving the rest to enjoy when we go to the superbowl this year Joel! :-)
