fosmith Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I just bought a handle of WT101 on sale for $25. That's the equivalent of $10.75 per 750ml. Incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Lullaby Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 This was picked up in Memphis where my cousin lives and then brought to me at a family wedding in Kansas City. Belle Mead isn’t sold where I live/work in Michigan/Indiana so I’ll be bootlegging this back home with me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlutz Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Two more of these. $70 each. No burn neat but much more flavor with a bit of water. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a picture is worth a 1000 words, then this is it; not to mention 2 cents, a grain of salt, etc. He!!, it could even have launched a 1000 Glencairns...

By my count you are already at the bottom end of your traveling capacity. Where are you going to fit that case of HH6?

I'll give her a few bottles and she'll bring them up here during football season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtis Reed Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 ER10 and BT Store Picks... The BT was $26.99 and ER10 $39.99. $40 for a 10 year age stated hand picked single barrel? I think that’s a deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I had a busy day running errands and trying to get ready for our get together in Bardstown. I did make one stop along the way. I found a little surprise there too. ETL at retail. I'm sure glad I passed on the one I found for $70.00 a couple of weeks ago. Biba!

libourbon Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 HToday I hit some stores I never been in. First store I found a 1L Old Forester 100 Proof old label. Then I saw a store with some Barrell Bourbon on the shelf. Saw 6 bottles so figured it was a case on the shelf. While going through the bottles seeing which numbered bottles they had I found batch #10 mixed in with 5 bottles of Batch #13. Stopped in another store that I was going to drive by until my wife said what if they have something you need. So I stopped in and they had SAOS 7 year batch 56 bottled 1/14/14 and signed by Sarah. All in all was a good day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statesboro Blues Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Today was a good day. 4 bottles of Weller Special Reserve at $17.99/ bottle and WhistlePig for $72. Edited April 22, 2018 by Statesboro Blues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Kentucky haul, just got back. Not pictured are a few bottles of HH BIB and Bardstown BIB. Was limited, because we flew. The McKenna10 & KCSB are available anywhere, but I purchased it at EW, because the Distiller was there and he signed the bottle. The KCSB was one that I rinsed and stuck my thumb print in the wax, at the Beam distillery. I also helped dump a barrel of the KCSB, which was pretty cool. They would've etched it too, but the choice was waiting around, or hitting up Four Roses. The rest of the bottles were distillery-only offerings.

Wlrogers Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Pretty excited about my grab today! (First day Tennesseans could buy at a liquor store on a Sunday!) I have no idea if these autographs are rare at all but still really cool to me. Was purchased at Caesars Wine and Liquor in Arlington, TN.
