I live on the gulf coast and finding bourbon locally is horrible. I drink Makers and other wheated bourbons. I did get a bottle of Weller before I moved down here. It's all over priced and I am unsure if I have enough to last until July when we do our annual bourbon trail run.

No issues finding any type of bourbon here other than like Pappy and the few you can only get in Kentucky.

I have no problem with cost + shipping on anything I can find that can't be locally sourced. I'm not interested in asking secondary market prices just to help out fellow bourbon lovers stock their shelves.

Let me know what you guys are looking for and I will keep an eye out for you.  I'm interested in just trading bourbons that are hard to get.  I'm not interested in charging or paying secondary prices.  I have been looking for High West Midwinter Nights Dram, Weller 12, and Weller 107.   These are three I have been wanting to try, but I haven't been able to find. I can generally get Weller Special Reserve around here for $19-$23.

Here in PA it's horrible.

Would like to try Weller 12 and 107.  Waiting on the Pappy lottery.  The BTAC ended a couple weeks ago.

Local store did a single barrel select of OWA and BT. They haven't shelved them yet but it should be soon. I'll keep my eyes open.

I am looking for wheated bourbons. Down here bourbon is extremely expensive. The local stores have to buy it from the state and then mark it up even more to make money. I have Makers 46 and regular makers and a bottle of Weller. I will go to the store locally and see that they have.

I've got a bottle of Maker's Private Select sitting here. I've been looking for leads on Buffalo Trace Antique Collection releases. I would be happy to include it in a trade + cash should one turn up.

I may be interested in a bottle of these depending on price.  I've never had a single barrel of BT.  I can get regular BT for $24 and it is a good daily drinker.

Do you ever travel near Memphis? Last time I was there (early summer I think) I stopped at several liquor stores and they all had Weller Special Reserve.

I have a single barrel pick here of BT that is damn good. It's one of my top pours. I pick up a handle every time I'm in Missouri. The bottle is not worth the extra $15 it would cost to ship though. The OWA should be around $30 with tax + shipping for a 750. It is well worth that. Best of the Weller pours including the 12 (excluding the WLW from the BTAC).

Those bottles and theses sealers work really good if you have to ship them to someone.

Thanks to Leemozoid and unsub073:

Amazon Product
  • (Pack of 12) 2 oz. Clear Boston Round Glass Bottles with Black Poly Cone Caps (20/400)

Amazon Product
  • Shrink bands provide a professional look to your products while simultaneously offering a tamper evident safety seal. Not only is a tamper evident seal required in most cases, but it also gives your customers confidence that your product is safe for use.
  • Layflat dimensions: 45 mm x 23 mm (1.77 in x .9 in)
  • Works best for lids with a diameter between 3/4" - 1"

Does this subforum have a mod?  Can we do exchanges using the following:

- Buy the listed bottles and sealers.
- List what is our favorite "daily sipper".
- We list what we have to send out.
- We list what we want to trade for.
- We work it out with whoever we are trading with the specifics (number of bottles, what we are trading for, mailing address, etc)
- Post pics and a review of what we think of the received bourbon.

It is hard to find cheaper liquor than a Total Wine store.  You need to find someone making a road trip to help you out with your stocking, or plan your next road trip with this in mind.

That’s like the top end of the Johnny walker blended. Just below the Blue label.

Interesting.

One day I’ll pick up a Blue label. Never had a blended.

@ Tango_6

Being on the gulf Coast in Bama you should consider a road trip to Pensacola.
Competitive pricing with usually good selection in the FL stores.
Here in Okaloosa county I just picked up the big jug(1.75L) of 101 for 50 bucks.

ETA: 50 bucks was a bottle of Russells Reserve single barrel, the big jug of 101 was 34
