Had my first glass tonight. Enjoyed the 2nd sip more the 1st. Reasonably complex. Smokier than most. I'll have more thoughts after another glass or two.

Any updates on availability?
One of my neighbors found some at the Spec's in Westlake (170 & 377) on Saturday. He bought 2 bottles and noted that there were 11 more on the shelf at ~5pm. I didn't swing by that night, so it's probably all gone now, but a good sign and it may be easier to find now.
Last week Kings gave me a "good luck finding that dude", but Spec's had it sitting in the glass case, Goody Goody had it in the back if you asked, and Costco had it sitting out in the front. That was last week, so they may have pushed a big shipment out, or it may be rolling out more regularly.
Had a day off, so tried Specs and Goody Goody off Hulen. Nothing.
I am already tired of the goose chase, and emailed F&R to tell them that. This limited release crap is bananas.

I agree. Have stopped making an effort to look for it or ask for it. When I finally see some on a shelf, I might pick one up. But no longer all that interested. Whereas I would definitely bought it had I seen it before now.

You talking to me? Got it at Goody Goody about a week ago.
F and R kindly responded to my email, and told me to buy a bottle at the distillery. So I did.
One bottle per person, but I can only drink one at a time.

About 5 years old. Not very good IMO. Has a chance to get better with age when it hits 8-12 years. Not betting on it as Texas bourbon can't compare to the Kentucky region with climate, water, Etc
Paid $39.99 at specs and that's too much.
