ThirstyinOhio Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I was lucky enough to pick up a bottle of EC18 from my local purveyor here in Ohio. It was $130 before tax....this use to be a daily drinker for me 6-7 years ago when you could always find it on the shelf here for under $60.

GeeTen Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 MM PS from Specs, ECBP C917, & Belle Meade SiB 10yr in College Station, TX. MM PS is very nice (110.2pf) at a good price. Admiring the other two (2) bottles for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I did see a random B locally at the same time. I'm guessing they had a few A and B's in the Richmond warehouse and sent them out with this latest batch Well I did find a A118 around town this week and got one of those as well.

Kane Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Got an OWA for $29. Very nice price for Boston. These were the bottles I passed on 3 months ago, and they are still there. I think that's because it's a poor grad student neighborhood. This is also my second repeat purchase in 7 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB Slim Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I married well. My wife was in Tallahassee on a field trip with my daughter. She is sick as a dog and on her way home she stopped at Market Square Liquors fo pick up a few store picks for me. I met the their Barrel tasting team in Bardstown about three years ago while on a distillery tour. Great guys and they likely have the best liquor store in Florida for a bourbon drinker. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going for $70 which seemed a bit steep. What's it going for there? "Friendly" price after chatting up the store manager about bourbon for 20+ minutes was $53.63 + tax (!?!). IIRC, the State of Texas got 8% maybe? FYI, Belle Meade 10yr SiB was $57.99 and the ECBP C917 was $53.86 before taxes ($13.65 for all 3 bottles - I'm too tired from our Chinese New Year's banquet last night to figure out the rate, sorry). I thought the prices were more than fair. Edited February 17, 2018 by GeeTen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlutz Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Bought a Stagg Jr. batch 9 for $60 to see what the fuss is about and if it’s better than other batches. Passed on OWA at $80 at a store that has some deals but has fully embraced secondary pricing (and then some) on stuff people ask for. Knowing that Weller had hit the distributor, however, I stopped in a local where I have a good relationship and asked. Owner pulled an OWA from behind the counter for me @ $35. Also grabbed some duclaw hell on wood barrel finished barley wine, Goose Island bourbon county stout and some proseco for the wife while I was there.

fishnbowljoe Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Shopping day! I didn't want to waste a trip, so I figured I had to buy something since my store sold out of their ps BT. I saw all the positive comments here about Stagg Jr Batch #9, so that's what came home with me today. Biba! Joe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCwhammie Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I grabbed a 1.75 of WT101 for $29.99, a 375 of MMCS for $19.99, and a 750 of Ezra Brooks bourbon cream for $11.99. I’m excited to try the MMCS based on what others have said. The other two just couldn’t be passed up on based on the pricing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graftonbc1 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 EC C917. Finally. One of the smaller liquor stores I go to just happened to have a bottle. I am taste testing A, B, and C tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surtur Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Found two dusties today, only one being bourbon, a Wild Turkey 8 year. I also found a bottle of Cutty Sark 12 year from the 60s or 70s for $18 and I felt like that would be fun enough to try at that price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
