It’s right down the road from me and I didn’t go because I don’t like Willet. I haven’t seen another post from them or comments implying it’s sold out vs still on the shelf.
Yeah they only allow one per customer per day, so as long as they still have them, ima try to get one a day.
Picked up a stellum cask strength single barrel store pick and a cask strength makers 46 today. Both are tasty. First time trying stellum.
Had a few friends over to try a bunch of whiskeys. This is absolutely my favorite aspect of keeping the volume of bottles on hand that I do. Started everyone with a pour of Weller 12, the let them branch out from there. Have a buddy that is getting into scotch and he stuck with my ASW Duality and Lagavulin 16. Everyone else bounced around through my entire collection. Oddly enough, I think I’m preferring SW uncut unfiltered to ECBP. Tasted U/U batch 82 against B521 and it wasn’t even close.
I’ve saved at least a quarter of each ECBP from the vast three years. I haven’t been able to save a drop of the U/U I’ve had, albeit only three.
I need to see these restaurant pours to remind me what a normal pour in a Glencairn glass should look like
I did down a few more to compensate. At least, the asswhoopings were expected. I’d be dead if I were a Texas fan
Over in Butchertown today, and I can say that I’ve never seen so much allocated stuff in the wild with price tags well over secondary.
Picked up a 1.75 store pick BT, 1.75 Weller SR, Eagle Rare store pick, and 1792 Sweet Wheat this weekend
Also thought I was about to get a michters rye barrel strength but got a lol nope from the clerk. Spoken for.
New store opened outside my neighborhood today. Not too bad of a selection, although one distributor was there saying, “this is where the Wheatley goes bc I bought this space with 50 cases of Hennessy.” They had that greenbrier but was first time I’d seen it, so wasn’t sure.
I tried Mic Drop and Angel’s Envy Rye tonight, loved both. That AE Rye is the sweetest whiskey I’ve ever tasted, like a gingerbread cookie.
I always see different batches going for different prices. But bottom line is based on what I've seen on the secondary market, you never see Stagg Jr for $200. Or do I have that wrong? Depending on batch I typically see it from $250 and up close to $300. What batch is it?
