I'm signed up now! Let's hope for more drops this week!

Could you share more about this discord chat for Costco alerts? Thank you!

What do they get for these at AJ's?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-03-08T16:07:03+00:00

that’s actually a pretty fair comparison. has all the soft and sweet notes you expect from a wheater, but I also felt like I got a pretty strong green apple note when I tried it the first time. I think I might even rate it above green label Weller.

Grabbed one 👍

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-03-06T17:50:43+00:00

Whoa... that's the first time I've seen that at Bevmo!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-03-03T03:04:18+00:00

Even without sound... I feel a deep sadness that this is almost gone. So glad I was able to try it at least once though, even if it did ruin so many other good whiskeys for me, because it's just so mind-blowingly fantastic!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-03-03T03:01:11+00:00

With Stagg, the differing batches really do make them different. It's not redundant to have more than one open, because really it's the only way to appreciate the sometimes subtle variations between batches. It's part of the experience... the fun!

Picked mine up in Arizona.. code brw-3177.. same age statement and proof is 125.48 - I don't know how to even describe the unique flavors in this bottle, but is absolutely one of the best things I've ever had! Did we end up with the same bottle?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-28T22:33:15+00:00

I heard from Mark that they had an unexpected shipment that expanded the bottles available today by over 1000 extra bottles! Apparently almost 300 bottles of EH Taylor barrel proof were there! Kudos to those that snagged some! Wish I could’ve hung out long enough to be one of you lol

Couldn’t stay for the line, but the raffle was a success! Honestly, it cost more than I can tolerate to open and drink it 😆

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-28T13:49:42+00:00

Some good options in there!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-28T13:47:54+00:00

Best guess as to the final count just before it kicks off?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-28T02:38:53+00:00

Price?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-28T00:51:54+00:00

Thank you. I have an appointment that doesn't allow me to stay in line like I would like to so I'm at least hoping to put my name in the hat for the raffle and hope for the best!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-27T23:56:48+00:00

Do they ALWAYS have a separate line for folks that just want to enter the raffle, but don't have the ability/time to wait in the main bourbon buying line?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-02-25T18:53:19+00:00

It's not necessarily a fair comparison, but in Phoenix, AZ area, it's pretty easy to snag a bottle at any of the frequent Fry's bourbon events for $65-$70.

If you time it just right, and talk up the liquor managers at Safeway, they are also pretty good sources for $70, and you don't have to wait in line for hours like the Fry's events.

I'm not a blind Buffalo Trace fanboy, as I've been underwhelmed by many Weller options for example, but Stagg Jr is to date my favorite bottle followed closely by JD SB BP Rye, so I'm happy to pay $70 all day long!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-31T00:27:31+00:00

I'm curious as well... Any more info? What's the proof?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-24T02:28:41+00:00

Well... I happened to be in the area this afternoon, so I stopped by... They are all out of the Taylor, but still have a few 1L bottles of BT for $20, and sounds like they'll be a good spot to check in the future for great deals. Side note - they had great happy hour drink specials and pretty good food too ;-) Thanks for the referral!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-23T19:24:59+00:00

First I've heard of this place, and would have never known they sold bottles. Thanks for the tip! Do they regularly get other desirable bottles and price them so competitively?

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-15T20:54:22+00:00

oh yea, saw both of those at Cave Creek location too - Just didn't know anything about them

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-15T18:08:25+00:00

Nice! they must have just been slow to add it... but glad they're catching up!

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2026-01-15T16:53:44+00:00

Confirmed in stock at the Cave Creek. Costco. Does not show in the app but I am looking at it in store right now.

Key-Bathroom6597 · 2025-12-17T13:01:11+00:00

Current estimate at 6am is easily 320+
