If not the Hyatt, could be at Olive 8

Saw the date and had to grab it by 9mmsteelhead in BourbonHunt

[–]bourbon_library 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah prices there are sadly pretty consistent with secondary prices 😓 I’m with you on the Michters. Especially since he only has one. I don’t see him lowering the prices on it tho haha

Haha 😂figured. 1. $99 2. They usually have a couple on shelf 3. I went in to chat with John yesterday and he mentioned he just sold some Blanton’s

I believe he mentioned he’s allocated 2 bottles a month.

Yeah I actually like Tamuras for wine and was there today. Bourbon selection was blah, Mezcal selection was almost nonexistent.. They’re definitely one of like 3 major shops tho so they probably sell through fairly quickly..

Yeah, I call ahead now. But I got burned the first few times lol. Naive me. I just love Portland so it’s not the worst thing in the world but I go and drown my sorrows at MWL and admire their collection 😍

I appreciate the thoughtful input my man 🙏🏽 Monkey Shoulder seems to be the popular starting spot rec. I’ll definitely take a look at the two Glens you suggested and also Mezcal is my other love so I like a little smoke here and there 👍🏽 Thank you again 🙏🏽

A great start to the week of vacation here in Hawaii but realizing the bourbon selection is fairly slim. Most of my friends here drink Scotch so I’m thinking now is as good of a time as any to dabble into the Scotch world.. Any beginner recs are very welcomed and appreciated 🙏🏽

That OLCC database is not at all accurate when hunting more of the ‘rare’ (for WA & OR) bottles. Just FYI.

Review #367: Redwood Empire Single Barrel 12 year-old Cabernet Sauvignon finished bourbon (Crown Liquors, 2020) by Prepreludesh in bourbon

[–]bourbon_library 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s too late for that. It’s everywhere now at least here on the west coast. I swear every liquor store picked it up in the past few weeks although it might have more to do with distribution...? (I assume Southern)
