smokinjoe Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 two Makers 46 @ $25 a piece. couldnt pass at that priceIndeed, that is a great price. I can't recall ever seeing pricing on M46 even discounted a little, let alone bombed to anywhere near $25. I would have been tempted to grab a case, if in your shoes.

I did not think of asking if they had a case in the back or not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brisko Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) Got up very early and stood in line on a cold Saturday morning at LCBO for the right to buy one bottle of each of BTAC.Bought Stagg, WLW, and Saz 18 (passed on THH & ER17).With this purchase I'm out of the BTAC/Pappy chase. Prices are now too high to justify buying more.I've been busy for the last few days so I missed this post. Sazerac 18 at the LCBO, huh? Very interesting. I won't take this thread off topic but I am going to post over here in this thread, as it raises some questions in my mind.Edit, that thread is closed so I guess I will post it here (sorry mods...)Smithford discovered that the LCBO did not carry Saz 18 (along with VFWRR and PVW23) because its levels of ethyl carbamate were too high. (Ethyl carbamate is a byproduct of the distilling process, and a suspected carcinogen). US producers began actively reducing their EC levels in 1988, so anything distilled prior to that would likely have levels above the LCBO's standard. As we know from the fact sheets, including this year's, Saz 18 was distilled in 1985. And we know from various sources that it was tanked in the late 2000's to arrest its aging.So... if the LCBO is now carrying Saz 18, we can make some deductions. Either:LCBO doesn't regulate ethyl carbamate any more (I don't know one way or the other, but I doubt it)the EC magically disappeared from the tanked Sazor:The Saz 18 now bottled is post 1988 distillate (which contradicts the "fact" sheet)or, maybe more likely:Enough post 1988 distillate has been added to the tank to bring the concentration of EC low enough to satisfy the LCBO.

r60slash5 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 A Parker's Heritage Promise of Hope, and a Baby Saz at Wine Shop. Their gouging on Van Winkle Products, but these were MSRP at least. Bottle each WLW12 and WA107 at different place.They have a bottle of PVW 15 for me but the owner was out. And he only knows where it's hidden.

tanstaafl2 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 A FR Barrel proof store pick OBSO at 126.5, aged 9yr, 8 months. Owners went to Kentucky and picked it out with Jim Rutledge rather than doing samples sent to them. A bit hot initially but some nice fruity and caramel/burnt brown sugar notes with a long drier finish than the mid palate. A touch of water opens it up nicely!

Paddy Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 On the road for work today (thankfully not in a dry part of the state) and took advantage of the opportunity to plunder new territory. Scored a Stagg Jr and ETL x2 for my efforts. ETL has been all but impossible to find in these parts of late and I located two (and there was no more to be had). The Stagg Jr was a lonely back shelf leftover that the store had been holding for a regular customer. Said customer failed to pick it up and they put it on the retail shelf three days ago. I noted my surprise that a bottle was still available and the clerk responded that he was shocked that it was still on the shelf, as no one seemed to have noticed it until today. :grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I know of a lonely bottle of Stagg Jr. hanging around at a store in the Indy area. It has been there for several months. I think people are afraid to go into the neighborhood where the store is located and the people who live in the neighborhood probably think it is too expensive for bourbon. I can't argue against either perspective. :shocked: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Dusty Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) GTS from a friendly manager who was "saving it for someone who would appreciate it". I guess I proved my bona fides by chatting him up about the Pappy/BTAC craze and the bane of the secondary market. He got a smile on his face and told me to wait here and he would make my Christmas. Have to say its a heck of a start:grin: Edited December 13, 2013 by Old Dusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
