Good news for all Australians: Buffalo Trace will soon be available in Australia, with widespread distribution. Sazerac have partnered up with Southtrade International to distribute their fine bourbon. Hopefully we will see more of their products filter into Australia via the right channels to keep the price right.
I hope for around a $60 price tag. Press release attached.

That is bloody awesome news!!!!!!! It brings a tear to my eyes (in a good way)........ We've waited a long time for this!!!! I remember talking to Ken Webber about a BT release Downunder back in 05/06, and I got the impression it had been on the drawing board for a fair while. I can't wait to crack my first bottle :yum:
On an aside.... $60 would be an interesting price point. It'd put it at approx $10 more than Blantons Special Reserve sells for.
Congratulations to all you members in Oz! Glad to see you're going to be getting some more bourbons to choose from. Hopefully the prices will be decent. Joe
That is freakin' sweet!
I just spoke (via email) to one of the contacts at Southtrade International.... They also distribute Rittenhouse Rye nationwide. I'm waiting on a reply back to find out where I can get some locally.
Fantastic stuff! Please let us know too Cam! :grin:Quote:

The closes place (to me) that they provided was the CruBar bottle shop in the Valley. They have a couple of bottles of Rittenhouse at $80 per bottle. In the past, I've also seen them carrying Old Potrero.Quote:

I'm also looking forwards to the Sazerac rye that they will be bringing in too!
