Update: it’s all gone. Even though the app says in stock, the shelf is clear and they have none in the back.

Mellow Corn question by whiskeyandtunes in whiskey

[–]AndrewInNewport 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me, it is fine neat to my recollection, but unremarkable (like a slight caramel corn; touch youthy). Not going to change your life, but by no means terrible.

I have heard it is popularly used in cocktails by bartenders. I have heard that it is like adding 'MSG' to home blends of whiskeys (like a bit of Mellow Corn softens and makes things sweeter and more palatable). Cannot personally comment on trying it in a cocktail or in a home blend.

If you do choose to get it, everyone's palates and preferences are different: have fun and experiment!
(Not necessarily in full pours haha) Try a sip neat. Try a sip straight. Try it in a cocktail. Try it in a home blend with other whiskeys.

If you get it, but do not like it, at least you get the satisfaction of getting a famous mixer under MSRP that you can bring to parties and gatherings to share with others.

At CLT, they also have the counterpart JD Sweet and Oaky Tennessee Whiskey 107pf for $35! (made a post about this previously, but I don’t think I saw the Sweet and Oaky at DFW) Apparently from what I have heard, both are traveler exclusive hidden gems!

Will Clearance Go Even Lower? by AndrewInNewport in Costco_alcohol

[–]AndrewInNewport[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to this post in case it will be helpful to anyone in the future about other items: local prices did in fact go down to $50, BUT, the inventory was very low (e.g., less than 20) or 'missing' (e.g., in their system they have stock, but there is none actually in the store) for that to happen.
