What’s the story on those Tom? What’s driving the higher price compared to others? Older juice?

The anticipated scarcity and the old juice put down my Booker are probably the biggest factors. Andrew. Secondary dropped about 30% by day 3, but you'll still pay close to double MSRP unless you're lucky enough to have a store put one aside for you or made it to the Beam gift shop while they were still there.

Now to hunt down The Reserves.....

Opened the latest Binny's EC Private Barrel last night. It's good, nothing mind blowing.

Since I am limiting myself to a couple pours a week, might as well drink the good stuff. Had a healthy pour of Weller Antique 107.

This is what I thought you were going to come in here and post. A friend picked one up last week and said it's better than any Booker's batch he's tried, don't know how it compares to other special releases but I'm sure buying one if I were to get the chance

Yup, I'll trade or do secondary to make sure I get one or two, Ben.

I've got a 4 oz. sample of the Infinite coming, so I'll be able to keep that bottle intact for now.
