I was introduced to the management of Stateline Liquor in Rock Hill, SC. That's where I got the Barrell picks. They have about 6 Barrell picks, 2 Russels Reserve, 3 Jeffersons Ocean, and quite a few other store picks. They surely have an in. I'll speak to him about it.

@Acclaym this is why you need to try and jump on the VHerf sometime,(the Saturday one, not the secret Thursday one)... We talk about stuff like group buys and try and find ways to spend more money than we have... And on occasion one of us steps out of line and gets checked by our wives live on camera, makes for good entertainment... Besides I would love to hear your thoughts and stories and opinions about bourbon/whiskey etc...

Hoooooly crap if I hadn’t already dropped anniversary spending money I would be all over that. Thank you for posting that
 
so my local B&M posts a barrel sale at 10pm tonight... wouldn’t say what it was.. they had a barrel of eagle rare and a barrel of Blantons. One bottle per person. My wife was generous enough to come with me so I have 2 bottles of Blantons. Eagle rare will probably be there tomorrow am still :)9232298C-5F79-4CB5-ACC7-ED418FEA0FD4.jpeg

Brickstreet Ginger Beer is Local
Zaya is rum
Sweet Vermouth
simple syrup for people who don't want to make it
The Q is a high reviews Ginger beer
Blood Orange bitters for manhattans is really good
 
If anyone likes history, this may be interesting for you. The Whiskey is pretty good also. Which reminds me I am overdue to review it.

The man who started the Omaha Stock Yards started it because he had a byproduct to get rid of. Peter Iler built a whiskey empire that spanned over forty years and became the third largest distillery in the country right up until Prohibition. Iler saw his spent mash bill grains going to waist and found a practical solution of feeding it to cattle. He purchased 2,000 acres South of Omaha, which eventually became the Omaha Stockyards. When Prohibition came and the feds invited him to continue to produce spirits for medical purposes, Iler decided to get out of the spirit business and build his cattle empire. Patriarch Distillers is excited to have the Golden Sheaf Bourbon as a legacy brand along with David Mark Young who resurrected the brand, brought his idea and dream to the company. We proudly sell this incredible award winning spirit in our tasting room 100 years after it disappeared as a mere Omaha foot note. Almost lost to history, we’re happy to say it once again is alive and well and proudly calls Omaha home once again!

I find it fascinating how different things can be from state to state. Here is Ohio, I don't think it would be legal to do something like that.

Sometimes, just trying to find out if a liquor store has something is impossible!

There is a high-end supermarket chain here who has recently decided to get into the liquor game and they are buying up every available liquor license and opening a liquor store inside their grocery stores. But...........they haven't figured out how to treat people yet. Last week I went to one of the newer liquor stores and the manager was a grumpy bitch. I asked if she had received anything special in todays shipment. She just pointed to a couple bottles behind the counter (Angels Envy and Buffalo Trace) and said "that's it, I'll be glad when its gone, bourbon drinkers are assholes, they will literally run you over in the parking lot to get a certain bottle of bourbon"

She is kinda right though. 🤣
 
Just picked this up. First time with a total wine store pick. Hope this is good as I tend to like both the wheated bourbons and this particular series from Jefferson’s. And by the way the selection in Miami is way better than NY for this chain
