They will both be tried, in time. I can assure everyone of that! Price-wise, the ETL is $15-$20 cheaper per bottle - I've seen it everywhere from $26-$30 per bottle. Blanton's has been $45-$47.

The price difference is packaging, no difference in quality.

Hoping to grab a Balcones Single Malt soon.

Ah Squire, but there IS no price difference here! ($34 each) Come to Honolulu and drink Blanton's on the cheap.

Thanks for the notes. I'll definitely be grabbing a bottle tonight after work.

Maui I'm still trying to calculate how much Bourbon I'll have to drink for the savings to cover the cost of a plane ticket.

Cool, thanks for the input. Still obviously very 'new' to the serious side of this, so now I can grab a bottle of ETL and not feel like I'm settling.

Ok, I know I said it was going to be 4RSmB regular version. but I ended up with another JPS 18.

Best regards, Tony

I'm seeing WT Tradition readily available again. Anyone running out to buy this?

I don't know if it is any more available than it was last year or the year before that. It has been a slow mover.
