I was at the best store in this area where I live specifically to buy a bottle of the Pappy 15....He couldn't get it. He said he was "supposed to have it" but it never got to him. I don't know if there's some kind of "politics" in one store getting it when another can't but that was the implication and I have no reason to believe he was not being honest. I'll have to get it in Manhattan I guess where I'm assuming it's available.

Re: What you can't get in your area
I'm in a bourbon wasteland up here (although Four Roses did recently show up), so almost anything could be on the list, but what sucks the most to me is not being able to get the affordable, standby type of bottles. I don't mind traveling to Mass for special stuff, but it bugs me that I can't get VOB or OWA (especially) or WLW12 or WTRye101 . . . most of these are bottles I would always have open if I could get 'em easily.

Re: What you can't get in your area
after reading all the kind comments here on straightbourbon.com about Willett, I've really had a "hankerin'" to try it. I'm having trouble getting it in Va.

Re: What you can't get in your area
Looking over the MI price list to see what all is not available I noticed that as of this month BT White Dog is. Hot Dog!

Re: What you can't get in your area
I have a tough time finding Van Winkle products here in CT. I saw one bottle of Lot B last spring, which I bought, and I haven't seen any other VW products.

Re: What you can't get in your area
Actually, I didn't find the white dog to be hot, but more corney. Corn Dog! Originally Posted by bonneamie

Re: What you can't get in your area
Let's see. What can't I get in PA. Almost anything that's good. PA is a virtual Bourbon desert.
