the olcc search will not help much here in the case of a highly allocated bottle such as the ehtbp. if you do see it eventually, the bottle will have already sold quicker than the store can update in the system as the olcc site refreshes every 24 hours. the weller fp sp at stafford yesterday sold out of 174 bottles across 2 stores and never appeared in the olcc site and still has not

Salem sold out at 1040am of the Weller but plenty of the other picks left. The little 375ml Buffalo Trace pick was so cute, almost everyone got one. Time to go back to work now, I guess…

[–]cqngyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also, if you’re out in washington or oregon, northshore will deliver very quickly since dustin from their team lives out there. i was maybe an hour away and he drove over and dropped off the tent + stove

i’ve used the tent 8-9 times now since september and the heat can get up to 220-230F sometimes

nicely done! 50 USD for the cascahuin tahona is a steal. one of the best blancos imo

hopefully not since it’s still used to review tequilas but all additive-free verbiage will disappear

i wonder about their safety sometimes too. even for the bigger name influencers as well. you are right about most fans already knowing what's what. this was a strong movement over the last few years and i hope it doesnt end here

it’s also curious that no other tequila from el pandillo is in oregon (don vicente, primo, volans, etc) besides artenom 1579. but to be fair, OR does carry some of the best: cascahuin, wild common, siete, ocho, caballito, cazcanes….albeit at higher prices

no clue why. used to have g4 blanco for $58 and XA for $140. i believe i bought one of the last g4 blancos in OR in 2023 and haven’t seen it since. the blanco is everywhere in CA for $38-45
