I think other states are about to "benefit" from that and all of the restaurant/bar closures. I've been to the liquor store twice since Monday and I've seen Eagle Rare, McKenna 10, E.H. Taylor and a shit load of Weller Antique and Weller SR. Those bottles may be plentiful in other states, but they aren't easy to come by in Ohio. I'm guessing because they are trying to find homes for it.
Also, this post made it sound like I went to the same liquor store twice. I went to two stores about 75 miles apart....which further makes me believe that things are opening up for the general consumer.
Who else will be there at 1pm tomorrow? https://www.washingtonian.com/2020/...ne-of-the-worlds-largest-whiskey-collections/
I finally was able to snag a copy of The documentary, Bourbontucky. Excited to watch. If anyone wants a copy I may be able to host it for you to download on google for a short period of time.
I can say that the old forester 86 proof will be my last bottle left in these dire times. Not because I’m saving, because I’ll drink everything else first
So I just took a pour of my Four Roses Single Barrel OBSF 114 Proof aged 11 years 8 months. I tried it when I originally bought it late last year and it didn't really hit any notes with me. Now, holy shit. This stuff is delicious.
I feel like I was ahead of the curve here. I actually sent a client a bottle of 120 proof Clyde Mays Cask Strength and told him if he doesn't like it he can always just use it as hand sanitizer.
Our guys did that up here in the Atlanta suburbs. Great community service as well as excellent marketing:
I’ve been curious about this bottle after seeing it at a Total Wine. Somewhere around $70? Gonna have to be damned special given Pikesville below it and Peerless above it.
$70 is right, ABC has it here for $69. Haven’t had Pikesville but I have a bottle of Peerless Rye. This bottle has everything you’re looking for in a rye, very peppery finish and a fruity, sweet nose
Just put in a big curbside pick up order with the local liquor store. Got a call an hour later. "Everything in your order is good to go, except the Russell's Reserve 10 Year..." "Hmmm, do you have anything that's not on the website that I could replace it with?" "...what are you looking for?" "Same stuff everyone else is... Blanton's, EH Taylor..." "We do have a bottle of Blanton's..."
