    I'm well aware of New Riff. Other than traveling to Kentucky, how might a Texan procure a bottle? 

    Shit my bad, for some reason I thought new riff distributed to Texas. With bsm down I'm not sure.

    Geezus, it's probaby 90 to 95% 4 year. RIP. I didn't heed the warnings. I have one bottle left.

    What do you think is the next big thing that will actually be on shelves? 

     

    Who knows with how crazy bourbon is now. Two things I've enjoyed lately that aren't hard to get here (northern Kentucky) are 8 and sand and new riff rye single barrel. 8 & sand is a great daily drinker.

    I wasn't aware of they discontinued that. It certainly makes sense with Old Ezra 7 Barrel Strength winning awards and becoming their signature brand. 

    Speaking good sourced bourbons, I assume Boone County 12 is dead and gone? 

    Yep, gone for good. They have a new sourced version out now with a blend of something, like 4 and 14 year or something.

    So jealous of you Texas guys getting all the Weller 12 shipments. I've resigned myself to the fact that I won't have a bottle of my own unless I crack and pay ridiculous secondary pricing. 

    Yep. In the last 5 years I've seen it on a shelf once for $99. I'm sure it will be more the next time i see it.

    I saw it on the shelf in nashville a few weeks ago for $199.99. First time I'd seen one on the shelf before, I clearly passed though.

    I might, but other than the William Larue I’m confident in being able to find more of those by the time I want more, and I don’t want to hoard stuff people are looking for if they’ve got something I can’t seem to find.

    Really wish this was a more common theme in bourbon. That and not snapping the crotch shot in the parking lot of the liquor store flipping the bottle.

    Nope.  1910 has been around here since it was released.  I'm guessing you see a lot better shit on the shelves in KY than I do in CO.

    Well I'll be damned, complete opposite of here. 

    Yes to the amount of good bourbon on the shelf at all times here though.

    Maybe, I dunno.  I haven't seen it around here in months.  Maybe it's back?  And I only see 2 of them there.

    You are probably thinking of 1910. 1920 is on every shelf everywhere in ky at least.

    Anyone had the Boone County 14 year yet?  Have a line on a bottle but its like $170...

    That's under retail, I have 2 that I bought from party source for 220 after tax. Deps pick was around 210 after tax I believe and ggg around 220. I haven't opened either yet though

    Yep, sold out in a couple minutes at on my online spot. I should have pulled the trigger when I had the chance. 

    From everything I've heard expect this to be freely available on shelves, I don't think there will be a shortage unless people start hoarding like crazy as soon as it hits.

    MGP ever going to release their own bourbon? Or are they just making too much money selling to these startups right now?

    Google tells me they released a 4 year old high rye mash bourbon called George Remus. 

    I will have to check it out but wonder if they will ever release a Remus 12 year or something 

    I think "eight and sand" is a blend they do, it's decent
