Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order.

Larceny was 10 bucks wasnt interested some like though and I may go back for mixed drinks with that one. Keep an eye out at your walmart's.
Those are insanely low prices for 750 ml bottles of bourbon, let alone store pick single barrel stuff. [Reply]

Those are crazy, insane prices. I'd have bought almost every bottle at that price. That Elijah Craig 12 year at that price. Should have bought a few and I'd paid you $30 a piece for those. I can't even locate those here!!!

Bulleit Rye is great for cocktails like whiskey sours and Manhattan's as the rye gives a better finish and isn't hidden like other bourbons. Plus the price of Bulleit rye for the amount of rye it contains is a steal! By itself, the Bulleit rye is not great though. [Reply]
Wish I had discovered this when they marked down. I talked to the manager he said they had a dozen of Makers small batch at 25 bucks it was 56 bucks everytime I checked on it and have herd good things. Also Knob Creek at 20 for 750ml Evan Williams single barrel 10 bucks. I asked him why the heavy discount he would only say they were scaling back and making room. I figure its whats happening in the area as they are locking all behind glass now. [Reply]
