The official Whiskey (bourbon) thread.

Just stopped by a shop that has Weller 12 in both sizes, old forester birthday and Elijah Craig barrel proof.

He wants higher than secondary market prices... I hate that stores like this get some of the allocated stuff

Report them to their parent distilleries...it’s one thing for the peer to peer secondary prices to be inflated, but completely ridiculous for the liquor stores.

What was price on L of weller 12?

[Kemo Sabe]

Like Forty Creek, just bought some Makers 46 and have been calling around for Blanton's and nobody has. Just have to try it. I am a Vodka drinker but this time of year a nice Bourbon fits.

&$&% naw!!!

It's all went up but not near that I can go pick it up now for $46 ..... and it's been there 2 weeks. Some people in my area are finally drawing a line.... and it's over priced at $46..... good buy at $35

$30-$40s is buy it. I see it on secondary all the time at $99. This guys prices were a joke!

I didn’t even look at the rest of the store after that

What do y’all recommend for a 50 $ budget ? Sipping Kentucky bourbon .

Four Roses Single Barrel - 100 proof but is so smooth and goes down way to easy.
Colonel E.H. Taylor Small Batch

These are both good recommendations


Or you can buy a bottle of Elijah Craig small batch for $26.99 and a bottle of Eagle Rare for $25-30 and you'll have 2 great bottle for around $50

I do not agree with all of their choices but their lists are broken down in price ranges and they have a bunch of great info

Liquor Depots are notorious for jacking up prices on the hard to find stuff and trying to sell you swill they get by the pallet. I refuse to even step foot in there.

That’s was my first and last experience with them

If anyone can get my some Blantons at retail or near it, I have some cash or some rare beer.
