DeanSheen Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 When the cupboard is bare, they bottle as soon as enough of the whiskey is ready. Buffalo Trace has a ton of bottling capacity. The thing they can't rush is the age of the whiskey.They need to talk to this guy in Cleveland...I'll say because this guy in Cleveland has been having Weller 12 Nervosa. I'm down to 4 handles dammit and I can't buy this stuff here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RVTsteve Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I went to the picture then went back to see where you're from! Oh, well.I've been all over looking for some the last couple days. Feel like just last week when I wasn't looking for it I saw it on every shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joboyd Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I found about 15 bottles of W12 downtown Louisville last night. Bought two. If anyone downtown wants to know where they are, I'm happy to help. The had one bottle of EC Barrel Proof as well at $60, which I passed on due to having spent a ton of money over the weekend on others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm out in the suburbs, but would drive downtown for a bottle. It's getting tougher to find! Mind sharing? PM would be preferred so they aren't vultured...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Yeah, I was thinking it must be post count. But, at least, you have it narrowed to downtown Louisville. Enjoying a little WL12 right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonhalter Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Still quite a bit of W12 in the Jax FL area. Picked up a handle yesterday on sale $45. Edited July 29, 2013 by jonhalter spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smknjoe Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Just gossip. Just as others have said it's regional and sproradic. This region is flush and has been consistently. Some regions aren't so lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restaurant man Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 "You heard it here first" except I've herd this scenario multiple times, although the other versions were devoid of the snickering conspiracy. as chuck cowdery has pointed out countless times VW is a drop in the bucket compared to weller. I think the entire production of VW last year was like 8,000 bottles (I think). You could grow that 5 fold before it even registered with weller. It's just simple supply and demand. Weller will return soon. likely with a mild price increase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dusty Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 And disclaimer, I am not endorsing the theories in that blog post just linking for your reading pleasure. With that said its easy to see how people would connect the dots if W12 is scarce where they are AND there happens to be more ORVW10/107 and Lot B this fall. The first may be true and the second remains to be seen. Makes for good message board talk. And BTW there seems to be plenty of W12 in my neck of the woods.

Julian said late last year that that there would be much more available this fall (2013) than in previous years. So, that's nothing new nor is it speculation (unless something unforseen by Julian happens.) Let's say that they release 4 or 5 times as much as they had in the past. That would still probably make up less than 1% of BT's wheater output. The shortages in certain areas is clearly a direct result of supply and demand.

Old Dusty Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Well there is that, and the fact that there was no spring release so there will certainly be a larger than "normal" allotment anyway. Which will no doubt give an A-HA! moment to the conspiracy theorists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostBottle Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I heard a rumor last year that Buffalo Trace had talked the Van Winkles into letting them release one of their offerings year round. That bottle? Lot B. I can't tell you if it's true, I know I was a bit skeptical. However, it seems to make sense in light of some of the other rumors I am hearing.
