Josh Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I've been hitting all my spots and no sign of Wild Turkey Rye anywhere. I talked to a store owner today and he said he's been ordering it for weeks and he keeps hearing from the state that they're out of stock. The Russell's Reserve Rye is fairly easy to find (I don't think it sells too well around here), but I see more Handy Rye than the WT. Anyone else noticing this?

OscarV Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Everything from WT is hard to get here in Mid MI.Josh, I know where some WT Rye is if you want me to score you some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBOmarc Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 If the PLCB has it, it can't be that hard to get. Saw some this morning. Would be happy to send some your way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Thanks for the offers of help everybody! I talked to another store owner yesterday and he said the State of Michigan also claims to be out of Baby Saz and has been for months. From the sounds of it, the dreaded A-word (allocation) may be the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whskylvr Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We have it on allocation here in California our warehouse only has 30 or 40 cases for all of Northern California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisko Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I know certain stores in Minneapolis are out of it...I am in Alexandria, Va at the moment and the ABC near my motel didn`t have any, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasH Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I think it is a special order in Ohio. I see a csae here and there but only at certain stores!Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I have seen this in the last three stores visited in my area. In one store there was definitely dust on the bottles so it may be a slow mover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Finally found some today at the snooty grocery store with the excellent wine and beer depts and a decent selection of spirits. Still no sign of baby Saz tho. Wonder if the state's still out of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funknik Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Baby Saz hasn't been around in Maine for about a year (I did score a couple sitting dusty on a shelf, though) and I knew of one place to get WT Rye101 in Mass and they told me they couldn't get it anymore -- that was last May! Somewhere in there, I stumbled onto another store near a buddy's house in Mass with WT Rye, but left it, since I was stocked up. This weekend, I visited my friend and pulled the only 2 WT Ryes out of that store . . . hopefully that will last me a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkluna Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 There was a period here in Oregon when Wild Turkey Rye was kind of hard to find, but it never ran out completely. I grabbed a couple of extra bottles in case it stayed scarce, but it looks like the state has received a shipment since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
