greatgoo Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Greatgoo, mind sharing the price on that? I am a huge fan of the MMCS and a 750ml size is awesome.$60 out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 A interesting discovery at lunch today. I heard that MM was going to begin producing their CS in 750ml bottles, but hadn't seen one in person or on the Internet. Maybe I missed? Bottle says it's batch 15-2. What was batch 15-1? The 375mL size still? This is the first I've heard of the 750s being out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TunnelTiger Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Neither of my dealers ever receieved a 375 but now both are telling me they are expecting this sometime this month.I wonder what size it will be. I have to purchase at least one for sceintific reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBoldBully Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Interesting they are using the old Booker's style numbering system. Oughta consider going with the new named batch idea. First could be called something like "Casked and Answered" or "Age is Just a Number...that We Don't Reveal." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greatgoo Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 What were the 375s selling for in your area?Never saw the 375ml in Ohio. Owner of the store said a customer requested the cask strength a few months ago and this is what a arrived. Ohio is state controlled. We get very little, if any of the limited releases that come out. However, any bottles that come in are set at msrp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auracom Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Excited for the 750ml if it ends up in Chicago. $60 is fair for this one and I will no doubt be a buyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TunnelTiger Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Is it possible that MM introduced the 375 as a test before going all out with the 750 nationwide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underhilltab Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I saw several of the 750s on a shelf at a retail store in Northern Kentucky this morning. First time I saw the 750. Price was $59.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squire Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 More money too, it's not like Makers has a limited supply that can be bottled at cask strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbanzobean Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 More money too, it's not like Makers has a limited supply that can be bottled at cask strength.Heck, they can probably use the "shortage" caused by allocating bourbon to the CS release to justify increased prices for the regular and the 46. Everyone is so busy snapping up LEs right now that they won't bother to notice that it costs about 2-3x what OWA does. Personally, I hope MM continues to put these out in 375s. A total cost of $35 or less is acceptable as a one time purchase to see if I like something, but $60+ is outside my comfort zone with MM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hop Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I just saw this today for the first time in several months. It was 39.99 for the 375 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lepisto Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I saw the the 750 for the first time in while traveling in Oklahoma this week. Can't remember the exact price, but it did seem to be a volume discount, i.e a few bucks cheaper for the 750 than for 2 375s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_mays Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Picked up a 750 for $56 or so. I'm not a big fan of MM but this is a notably different taste. The musty barrel notes come through a lot stronger and my bottle at 112 isn't too hot. While it won't beat Booker's for sheer flavor and value, I'm still considering going back for another bottle.

GAbiker Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Was in Louisville this weekend. All the Liquor Barns had 750's for $62.99 Most also had the last release in 375's for $40.99. Picked up a 375 to give it a try with my brother while watching UK lose. Better than regular MM, but I won't be getting a 750. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 One of the larger chains in Indy is advertising the 750s for $64.99. This is a little disappointing since there are still some 375s floating around for $29.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
