No, you have family there. Bourbon coup? I could start a recruiting thread.... I want to get out there badly. The snow here makes me think I'll wait for Spring at least. :D |
Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Grabbed another bottle of Stagg this morning.
Tom, I need to do an inventory soon, for personal tracking. Ben, I might be up there again soon. Will let you and Peter know when I find out. |

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Had time yesterday to hit up a store before my dinner order was ready for pickup. I’ve been to this store once before, and promptly left when I saw some of the prices. Thought I’d give it another shot. Yup, same inflated prices. 1792 12yr, $249. WSR, $60. Asked about OWA. The girl told me she could order it and call me when it came in. I said it all depends on price. She then proceeded to tell me they only sell at state minimum, “see these tags? The state sends us them”. Oh really? I didn’t have the heart to argue with her.

Honestly though, that’s awesome to have a store like that. |

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
They did say they were starting to see some of the harder to find bottles showing up more and more lately. So hopefully they are finally starting to make more or the craze is wearing down a bit.

Weller Single Barrel for $39 is insane, Pete, even the 107 is a steal at that price. :tu

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
I was a town over running errands so hit up a place I rarely get to. I picked up some Russell's Reserve Single Barrel, KC 9-year Single Barrel Select...and was surprised to see they had Eagle Rare and Buffalo Trace, so I grabbed one of each.

We have a group of chain stores in the area called Liquor Depot. They have okay prices on most bourbon bottles, but anything allocated, it is marked up higher than secondary. I saw a THH BTAC on Saturday and they wanted $800 for it. Secondary is $550 right now. Rule of thumb for newbies in DFW, if it has Depot in the name and sells allocate bourbon, it is going to be very expensive. -(P |

Sold a bottle of RD One Amburana to a friends boss. Used that money to buy a bottle of RD One Maple barrel finish.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Did some hunting today, seeing if there’s anything worth picking up. Nothing worth breaking out the credit card. Did try a High West store pick. 100 proof, finished in Cabernet barrels. It was good, but I don’t need anymore finished bottles right now.

Got lucky and caught the Buffalo Trace drop at 3 locals. All had Blanton's (limit 1), and one also had EHT, all at MSRP. https://i.imgur.com/ujS4x8S.jpg |

He does and said "because I bought them all she gave me $4 off per bottle!" So I tell him how much we could sell them for and he figures out what's going on. We ended up splitting the haul 8 bottles each. I sold four and kept four but we ended averaging about a $100 profit on each bottle we sold. Sad thing is I'm down to my last bottle. |

Nice pickups there Tom. Was watching the Bourbon Junkies last night, where the blinded all the different Blantons. Top was the gold, but the regular release came in second. I guess it depends on the barrel? |
