Any good stores in Louisville?

[ncmussell]

Believe my sister will be in Louisville for the first round IowaStategasketball ga,e this week and wondering if there are any good stores I need to have her stop by.

Liquor Barn has 3 stores that are well stocked, Liquor depot is pretty good too!

Define special bottlings. Unique single barrel selections only available at those stores? Yearly releases like Four Roses Limited Edition Small Batch, Van Winkle, Col. EH Taylor Tornado etc.?

If you're wanting the unique SB selections by retailers, you are pretty much out of luck in Louisville (I think...). About 90 miles northeast in Northern Kentucky you have Cork n' Bottle and The Party Source which carry more of those than any store in Louisville.

If you're wanting some special release stuff, it could probably be found (within reason, you won't find stashes of PVW 15 and 20). I've heard there's some Col. EH Taylor Tornado left, although I haven't seen any. I've noticed some special release Four Roses stuff left at some of the Liquor Barns.

Was wondering mostly about the retailer specific releases like the FR barrel strength stuff from Party Source or Binnys. But sounds like they don't have any so no big deal. Thanks for the feedback though!

I don't want to say there isn't ANY, but there's nothing like TPS and CnB. Maybe there is a retailer that has some good ones, but unfortunately I don't know of one.

Old Town off Bardstown Rd. does have some Four Roses Barrel Strength, but maybe just one or two recipes.
