I have a trip to N Myrtle Beach coming up in a few weeks (no, not my first choice). Any of you in SC know of any good stores in that area that carry a good bourbon selection?

Never seen one here. We get MWND and Rare Breed BP Rye though, so we’ve got a few good substitutes. |

Other than a mostly finished bottle of Axe Handle Rye, these are my only bourbons.
WR was signed by the master distiller in 2011. ETL was bought a week after his passing in 2013. Axe Handle was visited at the beginning of this month on a business trip with my wife. Attached File |

Found Wild Turkey Rare Breed at Walmart today for $45.95.
Well …..there was a spot / label for it but none on the shelf. Crazy side note - they had a bottle of King Louis XIII in the locked case….. |

I have only seen Blanton's for sale one time around here. And it was $199. Only time I see it is for use in store raffles. You won't see it in the shelf otherwise. Same with EHT, Weller, Eagle Rare, even BT has been getting tough to find here.
