timmitchell Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Pictures of the upcoming Seasoned Wood release have been appearing from the bottling line. Looks to be coming out around March or April like last year's Cured Oak release. The label describes it as a wheated bourbon treated with an innovative method of bathing and natural outdoor seasoning. No press release from Buffalo Trace yet.

The Black Tot Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Everyone put their helmets on. This one is going to be war to get. I hope Texas doesn't do what they did with Cured Oak and divert the entire state's allocation to bars and restaurants, but I'm sure they found that easier for them. Sheesh.

Jazz Nut Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I didn't see one in the wild last year....AT ALL. Not in a bar, not in a store. I will be on the lookout this time around, but am not getting my hopes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeTerp Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I doubt this one makes it into VA (for some reason the single barrel isn't even in VA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmossle Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Based on what I have gathered from various sources, there should be significantly more bottles to try and capture in the wild than there were for Cured Oak. I would be surprised if there was less than 10K available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackthedog Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Cured Oak came and went pretty quickly near me. Those that made it to stores were all ordered/allocated. Any idea on pricing for Seasoned Wood? Edited February 26, 2016 by jackthedog Clarity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know. I'll have to look a little more carefully this year. Usually they put stuff on well before they get it in the stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Santana Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) Saw one Facebook post by someone who bought a bottle. I think it was in Montana. First I heard of any being sold. My local guy initially said he was supposed to get some. The last I heard he was not optimistic. Edited March 26, 2016 by Tony Santana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gohrmund Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) I got lucky yesterday. Walked in there was one behind the shelf. I have spoken with some of the other liquor stores in the area and if they received any they only got one.

gooneygoogoo Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Gotta say I was really looking forward to this since I loved Cured Oak so much and I am a wheater fan so thought this would really deliver. Had one pour the other night and was not really impressed. Came off kind of bitter and hot. Hoping it settles some with air time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) I feel like this is getting more negative reviews than positive. I also really like Cured Oak but haven't made much of an effort to try and get the Seasoned Wood. Edited April 23, 2016 by dcbt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTNBourbon Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Wish this one would show up in GJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluffo Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 One of the larger Binny's near me only got three bottles. Needless to say I'm not high enough up on the "list" to get a chance to try this so I'll take solace in seeing more negative reviews and tell myself I saved $80.
