After 6 months of scouring the Internet, I finally found a Rittenhouse 21 to complete my collection. Tasting them all side by side tonight. So far I think the 21 is the best, but they are all really good.

I finally opened my MMCS last night and I will agree with the others that it's a great sip after 15 minutes of rest! Also, I can finally enjoy my first Stagg ever! I called a local store on a whim about an hour ago and they held the bottle.

San Antonio here $117. I passed on Parker Heritage 8, $89 but I'm thinking about doubling back and snagging it.

Nice find. GTS is the one that I'm wanting the most. I'm headed to SA next weekend so maybe another shipment will come in where I might have a chance. Hunting in Houston is almost impossible unless you head to the greater Houston area or on a list.

Interesting... none of this stuff has made it to NOLA. I had to make an unexpected trip here. Pappy and BTAC is in Texas, but not NOLA.

Stopped by the liquor store on the way home looking for GTS, PVW, etc
Their shipment didn't come in but they did have Baby Blue and Rumble

Owner told me they are going to ask $200 for GTS and 2500+ for PVW23. LOL

Pappy has not shipped to SA as of today. I was told to check back next week. Supposedly, WLW hit 2 weeks ago here and went quick. Hopefully, I can grab a something from the remaining 3 and at least a ORVW 10 if I'm lucky.

For anyone in Houston, Tony K's still has a few bottles of the Four Roses Barrel Proof we picked out for them. You probably won't be able to flip it for a profit anytime soon, but it's an enjoyable pour for about $62.

What's the recipe on the Four Roses for TK's? Did they have anything else of note?

PVW23 was $432 with tax yesterday. I don't believe there was any gouging at this location.

Tony K's Four Roses is an OBSO, 10 yr 5 mo. They don't have shelves full of limited releases, but they have a pretty solid bourbon selection.

TK's is one if my favorite bourbon shops in Houston. I know, at times, they have some interesting off the shelf items. It's been a while since I've been in. I'll be over there later today and will likely grab the Four Roses. Thanks!

I know some of you are Garrison Brothers fans - I just picked up a bottle of their 2013 release at Oak Liquor Cabinet in Austin for 59.99. I've seen it elsewhere for more than that. They are pouring tastes of it, and other items, if you're interested.

No BTAC or Pappy to be found.

aggiejue, where'd you find the stagg in San Antonio?

Dmart,

I do not believe that is true. I believe Oak Liquor Cabinet did get their allocation. They hold it for their regular customers.

Got a call tonight from a local store about Pappy. I was told I could choose either a 15 or a 20. 15 was ~$400 and 20 was ~$700. Told her I appreciated the call but couldn't do that. Asked if she happened to have any Eagle Rare 17. They do, for $299. I again thanked her for her call but said no thanks. While better than some aftermarket prices, for Pappy anyway, that's crazy for retail, for me anyway. She said she'd already sold some at those prices. I'm not surprised but I just couldn't pull the trigger.

Any idea how much they have left? I was hoping to pick up a bottle when I'm down in Houston early next week. Had heard it was pretty good.

Don't feel too bad, I got a similar response. It was an awkward answer to the question I asked that made me believe that they did indeed get an allocation in, and just weren't going to sell it to me. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

Would've been better if he had simply said it was all spoken for / sold. But so it goes. They did have some EH Taylor Single Barrel and Small Batch on the shelf. I may go back and pick up one of those...

That would be too simple. I have the same complaint about Specs Arbor Walk. They just aren't friendly about it and won't provide any information. Misinformation may be worse. Just didn't want you thinking you were alone.
Aggiejue

In regards to Spec's, I would say that if you haven't spent an amount of money that equals 4k-6k key points, your chance to get any BTAC or Pappy is slim to none unless you have some kind of in house connection. The owner definitely rewards frequent customers. I have a connection here in SA but came up empty for both. As for other releases, I can usually get my hands on them. Something tells me that the big time wine purchasers are rewarded yearly with BTAC, Pappy.

For the most part Specs = dog sh*t.

If that's the case Specs can kiss my ass. I go there because it's convenient and generally speaking they carry a pretty wide collection. I probably buy a bottle a month. half of what I buy is something regular and half is a one time I want to try it purchase. I have at this moment 7 differerent labels in my cabinet, 2 of which are unopened. I buy stuff to enjoy, to drink while te Ags are playing, and to have a bottle to take to a party to share. I'm not a ******* alcoholic sucking down a fifth a day for pete's sake. I know it won't matter to them but I can take my paltry business down the street.

I was told that if I continue my correct spending levels, I may get a bottle next year! No thanks! I will purchase from the store that has what I'm searching for. A new impressive Total Wine just opened in The Rim and it puts Specs to shame. They have a lottery system going at the moment. On another note, it's a good time for hot based bourbon drinks. I came across BT Bourbon Creme this weekend. Is this Baileys type product worth a try?

I like it. It's literally bourbon Baileys. Like everything else bourbon related it can be hard to find sometimes.
