Dude, it was crazy 😆. I guess people shop there but I'm def not their target market. I think it's for tourists and people with unlimited budget who like to put Pappy in their old fashioneds.

You overlooked the High West Single Barrel - I believe it was an American Prairie Bourbon but not sure how it was finished.

Really liked your other DC store video, that was unique and I watched the whole thing, started looking for a Widow Jane Decadence after lol. Can you interview Blake about how Seelbach's is able to do what they do and how challenging it was to build?

Thanks man! I had much more fun making that video but I'm still trying to figure out what people want to watch. That Decadence was awesome! I'm not sure if Blake will take my calls but I'd love to talk to him! If you guys keep watching, hopefully soon I'll have enough clout to interview Blake and other interesting people in the whiskey game.

I’m looking for a Russell 13 and will be in the area. What’s the cheapest price you’ve seen one? Are there any other good grabs you’ve seen?
@averagejoeswhiskey

DC is tough. Odds are if you see a Russell's 13 it will be $350+. The one I have I got at a VA ABC drop last year. Maybe VA will have a drop while you're in town and we can both grab a Russell's 15! Long shot though. Send me an email or a DM and I can give you a few places to check out while you're here

Bourbon Concierge is honestly a waste of time. I feel bad for anyone who spends money in that store. It's fun if you want to go in and see cool bottles but the prices on everything in there are ridiculous. If you haven't checked out DMV spirits, I'd recommend that place. It's just off Mass Ave in NW on the other side of American University. Best prices I've personally seen in DC.

I bought two PTs up in NH. MSRP for a 9 year is 350, 10 years go for 400. Not sure what the MSRP is on the 8 years, but under 400 is still a great deal. People ask over 1000 for them!

I guess if you want to keep all those bottles in stock you have to charge a price almost no one will pay. But I guess some people shop there since they're able to keep the lights on. Whoever pays those prices is the reason the market is where it is 😕
