ebo Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I've tasted it. It's good. So what? Lots of other bourbon out there that is also very good............. and available as well as affordable. I can't wait for the PVW craze to kill itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 The only way to slow it down is for BT to flood the market presuming they have a say in the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyOldKyDram Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 All bourbon is the new Pappy, or very nearly close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smknjoe Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) ^ What he said. Prices keep going up. $20 bottles are now $35...Edit: spelling Edited June 3, 2013 by smknjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskeyagonzo Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 It does seem that way. One of my LS has an EC18 for around 60 to 65. Can't remember exactly but it seems kinda high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 If Lastbottle is correct in who this guy is, he lists Pappy 15 for $999, and Pappy 20 for almost $1200. If he actually gets those prices, good for him.Yep, if people spend all of their money on a single bottle, it leaves more good stuff for us. Unless, a Sheik from Saudi Arabia buys it and the distillery, then we are all in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Of course, with BT rationing Weller and retailers telling customers that Weller is just as good as Pappy, another shortage is occurring. A bottle that cost $25 will be $50 by the end of the year. It is a vicious cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bottle that cost $25 will be $50 by the end of the year. It is a vicious cycle.This scenario is not going to happen. I would estimate there is 20x as much Weller on the shelves as Pappy in a given year. Hopefully people will learn that Weller is pretty much the same thing as Pappy and get to try it out. Those people that taste and enjoy will perhaps become bourbon drinkers in the know and stop chasing after the over-hyped halo bottles. Those that taste and don't enjoy might just figure out that they don't like bourbon that much and it's not worth an arm and a leg. Everyone wins.

Trey Manthey Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Me too. Last prediction I made was that Stagg Jr. would be on the shelves in Mid-April...so take it with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people just think they can buy anything they want with money. All those poor financial district customers will be grateful that they won't be getting ripped off.

Rockefeller Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 They just advertised that they have it available through twitter: https://twitter.com/FiDiwineIs there any way we can report the actual store so they lose their license? It seems to me a dangerous proposition for a liquor store to resell bottles they've obtained through general public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
