Based on videos like this I don’t blame stores for making allocated Bourbon like Weller a package where you have to buy something else. Stores have to carry so much inventory and people come in looking for the same 10-12 bottles.

$48.10 out of the door. They just raised the price of Blanton’s $5 (now $74.95+tax). I wonder when they will do a price increase on ER, which will push it over $50 after taxes. That day will stink. BR was increased by $3 (now $32.95+tax) at the beginning of the year. NC ABC appears to realize that with such a demand for BT expressions, people will tolerate a price increase.

Watching in 4k on my phone (as always). Examples here 17:44 but I get if you can't say prices out loud. Overlaying price in the video later is probably something you don't want to mess with but just understand that nobody hunts without looking at the price so it just takes away from the enjoyment a bit if there's a cool bottle but you don't know if it's MSRP steal or 10x secondary. Thanks again.

23:04 That level of drop would have 50 people camping overnight in St. Louis. At least 15 of would have camped out TWO night in the freezing winter just to have a shot at Weller CYPB or Single Barrel. Well... at better prices. Those prices were pretty high on everything. You can find those bottles in Illinois for those prices pretty much every day of the week. The one exception is Blanton's. Blanton's is still $120+ in my area. It's everywhere for $120+ but finding it for $80 requires a raffle win or lucky find at a grocery store. I know because I've seen it happen 4 times in St. Louis. My market is STUPID. It's also full of bottle flippers so it's a nightmare.

In Oregon good luck. You feel great if you pull a Special Reserve. The others come out 2-3 bottles at a time and tbh they just get passed to friends of the store owners. Not bitter, it just happens to be that hard. E.H. Taylor same thing. I traded in AR for an Antique 107 and I managed to get a Full Proof by dumb luck when I first started drinking whiskey. The others I don’t ever expect to buy unless it’s by sheer luck. The lack of getting Weller introduced me to Ben Holladay and Larceny Barrel Proof, and while I won’t compare I love those more findable whiskeys.

@@MajorXero In Oregon all stores are controlled but the State (OLCC). The State sends the bottles at its discretion and by law everything must be sold at MSRP. So called small stores here would be in rural areas one would have to drive 2-5 hours out of the way to go to. And at that point even if you’re hitting a desired bottle you basically bought it out from under someone local who couldn’t get it because they are at work. When we went on our cross country road trip we saw all the bottles and they were priced so far out of reality I gave up on that and went after local gems and handles we can’t get in Oregon (New Riff, Bardstown, Dark Arts, Green River). Don’t get me wrong, when I see a great BT bottle I’m interested, but if all you’re hunting are those here you’ll come up very thirsty.

Hey man, I just wanted to appreciate that you didn't clear out the Weller 12 at that store that had them for 49.99. We've all seen KZitemrs do that when they finds a killer deal on an allocated bottle and it's just disappointing to see. Be kind to your fellow bourbon hunters. I understand buying a bottle to mule back to a friend but you don't need to clear the shelf of a newly dropped allocation. Let other customers find cool stuff too. None of us really need 3+ of the same bottle when we have hundreds of bottles in our collections. Personally, I have a 2 bottle limit on most bottles. If I see a crazy deal on something allocated I might buy a 3rd copy and ping people in my bourbon group to let them know they can have it at my cost if they want it. Usually they do so I rarely have more than my 2 bottle limit at home of any specific release. Right now I'm sitting on a third Weller 107 (but all 3 are picks) and a third Blanton's that I won in a raffle. Those two extra's will be given away as presents so It's a temporary problem.

Here’s what I don’t get, back in the day there was Pappy by the case. Today you gotta hit a lottery or pay a lottery payout to acquire one. It’s inflation and scarcity that is 100% manufactured by Buffalo Trace and supported by peoples’ vanity. I don’t even waste the lottery chance in Oregon over other bottles. If I can try in a bar or tasting someday, absolutely. But I’ve yet to meet anyone outside of anonymous internet comments that say any Pappy handle is worth the secondary price.

@@MajorXero In Oregon you can’t negotiate price and it’s all released in a lottery, 3 bottles 3 times per year per expression. That means 27 bottles of Pappy handles for an entire state per year. It’s so rare that a couple years ago a few people lost their jobs on the OLCC board because they tried to game the system to get Pappy. There are no rules to the stores how they distribute handles that are allocated so on the highly desirable ones I’ve been told by multiple store owners they hold all but one in the back for good friends and family. And they send em to bars. Realistically there are probably less than 30 bottles per year of Weller 12, CYPB, Single Barrel, Blanton’s Gold, Stagg Jr and EH Taylor Single Barrel available per handle in the entire state that makes it in the hands of consumers. Of those they go to loyal customers who get the drop info. It is what it is and I’m not bitter at all. My only lament is not getting to try some of these. But the best thing it has done is create opportunity to discover great stuff outside of hyped bottles, and right now I believe we’re living in the golden age of bourbon as that manufactured scarcity has opened up room for other great distilleries.

@@MajorXero Out here we have an OLCC website where you can search for bottles, but as I said in a previous post even if it says the store has it that doesn’t mean it is available. Store employees and owners will often say it’s for a bar order. The only thing enjoyable about hunting in Oregon is if you happen to come across a bottle it will be at MSRP.
