Let's say a person has lost interest in Blantons but still has a few new-in-box bottles of it, is there a legal way of selling it?

There is a website Blanton's Dump Date that you can post the dates on and people looking for specific dates can try and make a deal with you.

I’ll take them for free and free shipping.

Do you happen to have an L or O cork from an empty bottle?

I'm trying to find some decent information as well. I have an old bottle of Crown Royal XR Waterloo which isn't made anymore and wouldn't mind using it to fund something I actually do like, yet not even liquor stores have any clue.

I was not expecting that number. Makes me wonder if I need to hold onto it a little longer.

I am also in Colorado and I love Blantons, it's hard to find so if you are still looking to move these I can find customers for you on some of my facebook groups.

Just found these locally for $75 a piece (last time if found it locally I had to get on a wait list and paid $120...) I know a little about bourbon and Blantons, but the first I bought came in a box with a cloth bag. These just have netting. Is that normal? Wax is still intactAttachment Attached File

I had 3.5 cases of it lying around then my ulcer started bleeding heavily and my bourbon drinking days came to a screeching halt. My friends came out of the woodwork and bought them all from me. Technically you can't sell liquor without a license but there are a ton of secondary sites on facebook that you can sell them. Secondary market is between 90-100 on them right now.

Drive to Kentucky and go to any bar or liquor store.

Or open a bar in your own state.  Those are pretty much  much your only legal options.

That’s not a realistic number.  They go for far less.

Seeing as you've likely tried everything on my "try" list. In your opinion, what is the best bourbon out there? Right now, Weller 12 is probably the best I've had

I dont have a very sophisticated palate.
I have a tough time picking "notes" out of most pours.
"Best" is a moving target imo, and highly subjective.
I like different things at different times, having a selection is nice.
I do keep going back to a few bottles that will always be on my shelf (so long as I can find them.)
Weller Antique 107 (12 is quite good imo, but I prefer 107, heresy, I know.....), EH Taylor Single Barrel and Small Batch,  Willett 3 yrs Rye, and Woodford Reserve Double Oaked.
My top 10 changes over time, but those have remained fairly consistent.

I have a bottle of the Double Oaked as well. Its pretty incredible stuff for the money

Really?  I can get that pretty readily.  Grabbed one not long ago.  You never realize how hard some of this stuff is to find, until you can't find it I guess?

You’re right. I live in Missouri where Weller anything is hard to find and usually expensive, $32 for Special Reserve. When I go to Kansas I can find SR half gallon for $38. I guess it all about allocation and it keeps the secondary pricing high.

I know.  Not long ago I could get Blantons all day long for $50-$55.  Didn't think much of it until it became the new craze.  First, the price went up, then it disappeared.  I know guys who have spent $150-$200 on a bottle of it, just to say they have it.  

I guess it is like the stock market.  If I could predict the future, I would be rich.

I got 1 bottle at $56 back on Thanksgiving. Only ever seen it at 1 store. I remember always seeing it on the shelf years ago and never knew what I was looking at. Kicking myself in the ass now.

I'm not opening my bottle until I find another one.

Would rather drink a $30 bottle of Weller than a Blantons at any street price at this point.

If you want to send me some of that EHT I'll happily give it a nice home!

I overpaid for my bottle, but the hype got to me. It wasnt that much, about $90 shipped, but I would not pay that again. Its good, definitely, but there are better options out there for that price (hell, even MSRP).

Its well overhyped. Mine came with no bag, no net, no box, but wax was intact, so no worries.

You can collect each of the letters and send them to the distillery and they’ll mount them onto an oak stave used to age Blanton’s.

Also, the letters are each stage of a race with a different portion of the horse’s gait.

I looked at how to get them to be mounted, once you get all of the letters you will call the Buffalo Trace shop customer service number and they will give you directions from there.

The Meijer by me has it as well, but I think you have to ask for it. I got THE LAST bottle on the shelf last Thanksgiving for $56. Still not open.

I picked one up yesterday sitting on the shelf. It's not my favorite drink but I had to buy it on principle.
