ethangsmith Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I was just notified by a friend and liquor store owner that Mellow Corn will be soon available in Maryland- by early September!!! I guess the promised brand expansion is happening!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutton Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I guess the promised brand expansion is happening!!!!I think you are right - I just saw it in Julio's yesterday - I was surprised to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalessin Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I think you are right - I just saw it in Julio's yesterday - I was surprised to see it.I bought a bottle of Mellow Corn at Julio's sometime around March of this year, I seem to remember one of the staff saying that they'd just put it on the (bottom) shelf for the first time. I haven't seen any marketing push to go with expanding into new territories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I doubt the brand is large enough to warrant advertizing but it should sell anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I seem to remember reading around here that Mellow Corn will be switching from DSP 354 to DSP 1 in the near future (like Rittenhouse). We only recently started to get MC in Indiana. It used to be one of those must stock up in KY items for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio_nowhere Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Anyone seen it in Maryland yet? I called around a week ago and nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethangsmith Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Midway Liquors has it in Joppa, MD. Already got a few there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio_nowhere Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Midway Liquors has it in Joppa, MD. Already got a few there!Was hoping for something west of Baltimore but I may be close to Joppa later this week. Would you say it's worth a 30 minute side trip for Mellow Corn &/or to visit this store? I've never been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethangsmith Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 I drive 2 hours from PA to this store, so YES. Stan Bilden is the owner and he's a SUPER guy. If he doesn't have it, he'll get it. His prices seem reasonable and he's usually got a pretty decent selection of stuff. Call ahead to make sure he didn't get wiped out of the Mellow Corn yet- http://www.midwayliquors.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgins Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I just bought a bottle of Mellow Corn in Montgomery County today. Not sure how long it's been there, I never noticed it when searching since it's buried under the "Blended Whiskey" section of their website.

squire Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I've noticed that, being buried I mean, it's as if some folks don't know what to make of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskwar Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I really like this stuff. I bought a few of them @ TPS this past summer (shelved back and to the right, nowhere near the bourbon), then noticed it in AR, and finally in TX a few months later.

TunnelTiger Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Not in MD obviously but bought me first bottle of this today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyd Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 The stuff is great! Definitely not Bourbon but good in it's own right. BIB so no color or flavors added, and it's got that grassy sweet corny flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TunnelTiger Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Too lazy to start a new thread but I am just having my first pour of this and I find it really interesting. Really strong corn flavor but a spice too, nutmeg? Sweet also, has a molasses feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethangsmith Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 It reminds me of caramel popcorn and cotton candy. It's a unique product and should be enjoyed for that. The extra sweetness and lack of deep complexity are sometimes the refreshing break my palate wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TunnelTiger Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 had it with eggnog last night the flavor combinations this resulted in just really blew me away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boneuphtoner Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I picked up a bottle the last time I visited the Montgomery county liquor store, so I agree it has arrived in MD...although our prices are great, we are very slow to get new products. [h=5]Just tried my first dram of Mellow Corn. I think I really like it. It has a reputation for being fairly sweet and an easy sipper, and I agree. Although I'm not a huge wheater fan, I think it is certainly better than nearly all of the wheaters I've currently got open (Lot B, ORVW 10, Old Fitzgerald BIB, Larceny, Makers, Makers 46, OWA).[/h] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffrey r Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Having my second pour of this tonight, and it's a good one. Sweet, getting a little spice (or maybe it's just some kick from the proof), and just a fun whiskey. Even at the "inflated" price of $13 here, it's a bargain for a really nice and unique whiskey.

capitals83 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Mellow Corn seems to have disappeared from Virginia. Haven't seen it on the shelves in a while, and it is no longer on the price list online. I was in Montgomery County today stocking up on some Rittenhouse Rye and needed a few bottles to round out my case discount. I was happy to pick up two bottles of Mellow Corn while I was there.

TheNovaMan Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Up until a week or so ago, my favorite store had been out of MC for a few weeks. Then they had two, which dropped to one after I left the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully they decided to pick up the slack. Knowing MoCo it's also probably priced a few bucks less than when it was in Virginia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
