    I have only one bottle of the 2011 bottle. Any thoughts as to if I should drink it side by side when I get my 2012s or wait longer.

    New to the hole cellaring thing and this is my oldest bottle.

    Just drank a bottle a few days ago and it was amazing. I don't really see why it needs to be aged any further.

    I would go ahead and wait until the 2012 is released. I did 2010 next to fresh 2011, and it was an interesting contrast. The 2011 felt like it had more body and was definitely more chocolate-y, while the year-old showed more of the bourbon and barrel.

    ive got some 2010s and some 2011s i m planning on drinking one of each when 2012 comes out. I'd agree with pmarlowe and say wait for that. its more fun when you can compare em.
