    I've seen a couple of these pop up in Nashville, but didn't really know much about them. Let me know how it is if you pull the trigger.

    The small batch barrel strength is for me. The 100 proof is for my FIL. 100% of the proceeds of the 100 proof go to an elementary school here where my kid and her cousins all go to school. FIL wanted a bottle to support that and also because he loves bourbon and Maisanos.

    Will do. I'm expecting big things. Maisano told me he blind tasted them with highly sought after allocated stuff and the K Luke either matched or exceeded the other stuff. I know that's biased but it wouldn't surprise me if he's correct. He told me where he sourced from but I can't remember what he told me at this point. We had a broad conversation that covered a lot of topics so I forget.

    I read that earlier. They try and spin it like it will be a good thing but the cynic in me tells me we are about to start getting younger ECBP. Hope I'm wrong.

    Even a bourbon-starved state like NC can occasionally surprise you

    Have a buddy that is huge into Willett. It just seems like an entirely different game than the rest of bourbon. I know I loved the stuff I've had from them.

    This is all the stuff he has. No idea what any of it is really. I know the purple tops are rare and wax I'm assuming is that much rarer but I have no idea. received_1219478848661718.jpeg

    I feel for that guy having to take a trip to drink some bourbon and have some fun… and pass it on to his customers.

    I gave him shit about all those being unopened too but he drinks plenty. He's got a couple of other guys that he drinks all his stuff with. Bunch of Willett worshipers or something.

    He ends up trading a lot of it for beer too.

    there's some Australian person around who may be a troll poster who has an Aussie name. She posts a lot but not well. There's now a spinoff of her account, too. I thought it was you as I was reading these posts.

    Secondary is completely local, the bold values above are what I see around Atlanta.
