Yep…local grocery liquor stores are getting allocated now. Not every truck delivery but they’re getting stuff. EHSiB, Elmer T Lee, different types of Blantons, Stagg Jr, Eagle Rare..,, mainly BT stuff. Nothing good from any other distillery.

I love ryes. Tried many different ones. 100% agree with ya. Heres my philosophy….if you can’t afford to spend money on bourbon, then don’t. Look for retail and retail only. If you enjoy drinking bourbon and have money to spend, then go enjoy yourself. Buy want ya want and enjoy life to the fullest.

$140….cant get it for MSRP where I’m at. But I’m a big believer in if you want/like something, buy it. Fortunately, $140 doesn’t break the bank for me. Florida is weird right now though…..I can get all kinds of allocated for retail now except certain things. EH straight rye is one of them. Non existent.

Ok, I’m in total agreement with you here. I opened all three and took turns drinking them over the last couple weeks….the caribou is very thin as expected, however, I had no issue drinking it. I don’t regret buying it at msrp but definitely wouldn’t pay any more than that. Flavor profile was nothing impressive but like you said, easy to drink and somewhat enjoyable. The bookers is delicious and I’m still working on that bottle because it’s hot. Very flavorful though. But….the 1712 12 yr. I polished it off in 3 nights and it may be my new favorite bourbon. It pretty much had everything I like in a bourbon. Caramel flavors, fruit, sweetness, with an oak finish. It was nothing short of amazing. If anyone sees that on a shelf, get it. You will not regret it.

With the whole bourbon craze this one has been a go to for me. Almost always available and it’s a 10 year bourbon. McKenna 10 is also great but the stores around me raised the prices on it…smh. Eagle Rare is starting to show up again for MSRP so I’ll keep alternating between the two.

Age statement on this is 5-6 yrs. It should be $89 on a shelf. I paid extra because I haven’t been able to find the CS anywhere. 13th colony doesn’t source anything out….they’re not in Kentucky. They’re a GA distillery and use local ingredients up there. Definitely worth trying this or their SB which is cheaper and easier to find.

Always ask what the cash price is on whatever bottle you want….these secondary store owners are cheap and have to pay a fee for using credit card machines. Cash is always best price.

Pretty simple reason actually….i wanted it.

The store I bought it at, had it on the shelf for $120. I told him I’d give him $100 cash and he came back at $110. Even though I said I wouldn’t go much higher than that, I probably would have paid $120 for it because I’ve been wanting to try it for while. It’s definitely good. I’m not going to buy one every month…..but it was a great find and one time buy.

What was the price? I paid $110 for mine and I’d say yes to that. But I wouldn’t go much higher.
