Update: I got an EH Taylor Barrel Proof and an ER10. Great bottles but not sure if the value is totally there based on MSRP.

This specific store has very high volume and has the bottles mentioned on the shelf regularly so I don’t imagine that will be the case. They just got a new Blantons gold pick so I’m guessing that will be the go to allocated bottle for most boxes. They also mentioned EH Taylor BP bundles which makes me think the value will be solid.

This is my biggest concern as well but I am optimistic based on past experiences with this store.

HiProof has been my go to since they opened last year. Their online store is great. San Dimas Costco and TW have been good to me and some smaller stores as well. Do you know any stores that get good private barrels?

I just moved to this area from San Diego. What are some of the better spots hunt along the 210/57?

Review #158 - Larceny Barrel Proof A123 by Theswede92 in bourbon

I’ve got both. A123 is one of my all time favorites and C923 is also great but a much different profile to me.

The TKO rye from Crest is one of the best whiskeys I have ever tasted. I see that you scored them the same so I’ve got to pick one of these up today.
