KBD discontinuing Vintage 17 Bourbon

[cigarnv]

IIRC, prior to last year, the Vintage 17 was a ryed bourbon, not an old wheater, so if this is the case, then it sounds like KBD is running out of anything that's old enough to be bottled as Vintage 17.

I think you hit the nail on the head Mike....

K&L usually wants $67, cheaper than BevMo, however KBD jacked up the price by $13 when they realized they were almost out. Local BevMo is still $70 because that's the old price. If they were to sell it faster, and then reorder one last time, you would find that price much higher next time around.

I'd been eying it at a store down in Eugene. Drove down Saturday and bought one - $66.10.

It's not bad. However, I tried some side-by-side with a close equivalent - Berheim-produced 14.5yo Binny's "Weller 12" - and the latter was better.

Disappointing for sure. May need to bunker a couple.

Just picked one up for $60, left one on the shelf. Anyone in St. Louis who PM's me will get the location.

[Rutherford]

There are a few left in Madison, if anybody is interested.

[White Dog]

Milwaukee, as well.

It can still be had around here, also.

Think I may grab one or two this week.

Saw today that bevmo hiked their price to $79.99

I found a couple of bottles in the DC area for $64.99. They've been there for at least 9 months, so I'm guessing the proprietors are not aware of the general price hike. PM me for the address if you want them.
