    took a few off since they were obvious, missed that one. They also have great lottery level bourbons like 1792 single barrel and Jack Daniel’s S.B. – Eric Church

    Too late, I did it. My other bottle is almost out, really hard to find, and the other places that I’ve seen it have it at 700 and 800. Feel free to tell me that I’m dumb

    Let me know how the single barrel is. I am getting desperate on that one. If I don't find anything by EOY I may just buy secondary.

    i feel like it's going to vary hugely from bottle to bottle unfortunately. may just be prettier to look at. I got mine through the ABC Florida Gold Key.

    What is the difference between a Weller Single Barrel and Weller Special Reserve Store Pick Single Barrel?

    Single Barrel is higher proof, 97 proof vs 90 proof for special reserve.

    Most store picks mimic whatever label they are picking. So an Elijah Craig store pick is 94 proof, Larceny is 92, etc. The only one I can think of that's a bit weird is Old Scout, but I think they do have a 107 proof non store pick option, even though it's also sold at maybe 93 proof as well?

    Henry McKenna 10 year picked up yesterday. Two weeks until a Bulliet store pick drops and then random special drops each week.

    A Weller single barrel compared to a store pick is probably aged more would be my guess. Idk, I have two of them open and one is slightly better than the other but both are fantastic. The better one is better than my Lot B and I like that a lot

    Offer him/her $99 plus tax.

    That sounds about right (for full secondary) relative to previous years secondary pricing.
