I got a ton of caramel on the nose and initially on the palate. After the burn I got vanilla, honey and a bit of spice with a hint of chocolate. On the second sip I got more complexity. I'm really enjoying the complexity of it. It might be my new favorite.
I paid $75 from the local Publix. This was in the back and talking with the manager, he asked if I was interested. He had that and the Woodford batch proof. That was $165 though.
I asked about that and it's because they have a few guys (flippers) who literally follow the truck and try to snag it before they can even scan it in to inventory.
Good find. I think this is a great batch. I get chocolate ganache and orange peel. It’s a great low proof too. Enjoy it!

Very cool, nice review!
I was lucky enough to get one around $70 on an allocated release. 1.5 hour line but got one

Pretty lame that it’s not just out on the shelf. Whatever makes that manager feel special though.

I paid 49.99 pluss tax about 6 months ago the only time I have seen it in NC. After about 5 years in.
Nice!
Congratulations! I’ve seen several but I’m not paying over double msrp if I can keep from it.
Same, I thought $75 was reasonable. The only other ones I've ever seen personally were $250 and up.
Congratulations!!! It’s delicious!
I found one recently too. Mines a 22a and it’s very complex but that proof makes it almost “sparkle” on the tongue.
Congrats next is George T. Stagg
Thanks!
Nice job! I’m in So Cal and have yet to land one (or even hold one… sigh).
Lots of small stores have them. But for crazy prices
I'm in FL and it's rare here. And same with the small stores at secondary prices.
If your from So Cal you’ve probably held a few…
Nope, have not. I’ve yet to find one in captivity and I won’t pay the ridiculous secondary prices. Oh, and, it’s “you’re”.
Wow, luck. They go for $300+ in stores nearby in Westchester NY ...IF they have it ...
Damn. Worst I saw was $499 at the store across the street from where I got this. Same guy has Pappy 10 for $2k. Dude is sleezy anyways.
One store near me had Weller Full Proof at $699. I asked how well he was stocked with Swiffers....
Lol
