I’ve never had Widow Jane before but I saw a “custom series” which appears to be their name for store pick and picked one up today.
Has anyone had a Clyde May 5 year single barrel pick? Joined a local bourbon group and that was their first that I’ve had the opportunity to get. I know the standard Clyde May is not great. “Now we have a 5 year and 3 months old 102 proof bourbon for only $54.99. This single barrel was sourced from Indiana (MGP) and drinks like the best high rye bourbons you get from MGP. Its mash consists of 75% corn, 21% rye and 4% barley. Tasting Notes: Lots of vanilla and caramel. Nutty and lots of cherry on the finish. A perfect winter bourbon and surprisingly an easy drinker.”
Liquor store near me just got a shipment of knob creek small batch 12 year. Dad and I got a bottle but are now wondering if we should go back and buy the rest. Store owner said its the first theyve gotten in a year. Is that pretty hard to come by stuff?
It’s not widely available but it’s also not in huge demand on the secondary. I really liked the bottle I had last year. My just open it with your dad and enjoy it.
Today I am going to pour my finest peerless in celebration of Detlef Schrempf's birthday, and for that, I am thankful.
Wife needed bourbon for her Pecan Pie was happy to give her some of Jefferson’s voyage I was gifted- shit bottle is shit
Bought a bottle of ECBP C919 on secondary, looking forward to picking it up. It’s my favorite release of the last couple years.
For those posting about Stagg Jr, I see it regularly $200-$225 on secondary. Only time I see it above $225 is if it’s a batch 12 or older. I only deal with local secondary (DFW, East Texas), I have never bothered with national groups.
I ask because I'm in my hometown and its sitting on the shelves here at 100 if anyone wanted me to grab them one. I brought some Smoke Wagon uncut home so I'm set till I leave.
I’m not in DFW but I can usually arrange pickups in East Texas. But I’ve not seen Stagg Jr. on a shelf in over two years now.
I'm in ATX. All my stores keep it in the back and you just have to ask for it. I can try and let you know when they have it in (which means yours will too)
Stagg JR, Blantons, EHT SB, EHT BP, EHT Single, ECBP all released this week in Ohio I did not go out at all, fuck waiting in lines
I should clarify that I do ask, but I appreciate you letting me know when your stores get a shipment. I’m rarely in DFW but if it coincides with a restock that might help my chances.
Probably. I would say you probably need to get there by midnight tonight to get the best stuff though.
yea I don’t think the deliveries changed much, you can try calling the stores. I went to my store to grab some Modelos and they got their normal shipment
