What you can't get in your area

[independant]

What is the one or more current release bottles that you love but can't get in your area.

Mine are WT Rye, RHF, OWA 7/107 and Lot B

All of these I can special order but none of them can I just go to the store and pick up.

Here in MI there is no Four Roses of any release and no WLWeller 12yo.

I would love to walk into my favorite liquor store and get a 4R1B or WLW 12yo anytime I wanted.

[DeanSheen]

Van Winkle (any)

Weller 12

Weller 107

ETL

BTAC

RHF

RITT BIB

4 Roses Yellow

4 Roses Mariage/Anniversary (yet)

OGD 114

...............and many, many more. Not much point in going on, you get the drift.

[theDon]

BIB selection sucks in Tx. We get Tom Moore and Old Fitz.

I want some JTS Brown or HH 6 yr BIB. Man that stuff is tasty.

Also no Old Rip products or VOB.

I can get pretty much anything here in northern Illinois. It's just a matter of how far I want to drive. The two best places for me are 25 and 50 miles away. Binny's south loop store is a bit farther than that. Roughly 80-90 miles. I have to say I agree with theDon in that it would be nice to see some JTS Brown or a couple other inexpensive BIB's up here though. Joe

Now that you mention it, I remember I got a couple of Old Rip 10/107 for Scott/callmeox about this time last year.

Anything you want from MI just let me know.

Can you get ER101 or WTRR 101? If so, I'll take two!

I did say pretty much anything. :skep: I was thinking more along the lines of bourbons currently in production. But a few nice dusties do show up from time to time. :grin: Joe

Thanks for the kind offer sir!

I have to drive down to Peoria, about an hour and five min drive, to get Old Fits. BIB. No JTS Brown anywhere in driving distance. Ditto for Rittenhouse Rye BIB. And my only source of ORVW 10, 107 has run out some time ago and still hasn't got any more in.

[George]

I find Van Winkle products hard to locate here in CT. I've seen one bottle of Lot B, which I bought, and that's been it. I have also never seen a Weller 12.

[callmeox]

I would like to add "any special bottlings by any producer" to DeanSheen's list.

Dry Fly Whiskey. Not available in Kentucky.

I don't have the time to type up this post and you don't have the time to read it.

[CajunKY]

Good luck finding that. Only a small trickle will roll out from what I hear. Though stranger things have happened.

I'm hoping someone from Washington State will see these posts and take pity on me after Thanksgiving when their next batch is scheduled to be bottled. Has Binny's seen any of their whiskey? I know they have the Gin and Vodka in stock.

Good God... how does anyone from a control state even gain an interest in good bourbon? It would be like being fed Purina monkey chow your whole life....you wouldn't know what real food tastes like.

[LarryG]

It would almost be easier to tell you what I CAN get. But to answer your question, a few favorites not sold in Alabama's ABC stores are:

OGD BIB

Weller 107 (actually anything Weller; I've yet to try 12)

ORVW 10

ETL

Sazerac Jr

WT Rye

Rittenhouse BIB

And while it's neither bourbon nor rye ... Plymouth gin.

Living in a control state is the suxxor, fershure.

[Stones]

All of the above and more! Living on this side of the globe is not so good price/freight wise if you're a keen bourbonite and you want variance from what is on standard offer... Kentucky is so far away... :smiley_acbt:

[unclebunk]

I'd like to get my hands on JTS Brown BIB and Tom Moore BIB. Nothing fancy, just good cheap bourbon.

[smokinjoe]

Besides the (primarily) Kentucky only releases (VOB BIB, AAA 10yr) and some of the limited one-offs, we have a pretty good selection in Georgia. BTAC, though limited, even hit (legally, that is) the retailers last year. The only two that I buy regularly out of state, because they are not available here, are Buffalo Trace, Weller 12, and Elmer T Lee. And, I don't believe we get any of the other Barton BIB's.

[shoshani]

Seconded. Also WT 8YO and 12YO, both of which have several outlets online in the New Jersey area but nothing sold in Chicagoland stores.
