    You can find Weller SR and Buffalo Trace all day long, every day here in Southeast Texas at a local chain called Longhorn Liquor in Beaumont, Lumberton, Nederland, Groves, Mont Belvieu, and other towns. Others worthy in terms of selection, prices and availability of all sorts of whiskies. Deb’s Liquor and Miller’s Liquor, Red’s and sometimes Tejas…and Spec’s Liquor is another large but local-ish chain from Houston. Their “warehouse” on Smith in Houston is a sight to behold.

    Back in the day (‘89-‘91) I used to work for Mr. Jacob as a delivery driver. Part-Time gig while active-duty. It was the original store, small, but purposeful. Mr. Jacob made all us delivery drivers attend tastings hosted by the wholesalers. He wanted us informed just in case a customer had a question and we were the only employees in eye shot. During this time, is when I stopped doing shots and started sipping. I left the area ‘91 and haven’t been back. I need to swing by.

It’s always such a pleasure to watch him and this channel. He’s one of the most genuine people I watch on TH-cam because he’s always just his honest self. Very humble and generous even buying bottles for the fans that have the chance to join him on the hunt. Any store that stops him from filming is just crazy because he’s bringing positivity and highlighting these stores and their products. So many people watch him so it’s essentially free marketing and advertising to almost a million people for just letting him film while hunting. Great video as usual Sir. # Bottle Killed

    The Doc Holliday is bottled separate from the distillery because the original distiller shut down. They used the same master distiller for decades and when he passed away they shut down the distillery. A different company came across the remaining barrels and are now bottling/selling it.

  • @deplorable_2024
    @deplorable_2024 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    The reason you find more selection in Kansas is because the state doesn’t get involved like in many other states. Distillers deal directly with dealers and distributors. That means their cash flow is much better and comes in faster.

    @Brewzle I'm glad you met Gary at Woodhat and tried some of their stuff... If you are ever back through that area ask about their Purple and Orange corn. The purple is actually the best stuff they have if you ask me. It's got a KILLER nose on it but the whiskey needs more time in a barrel or needs a secondary finish. Their 15 gallon barrels aging in shipping containers just roast the whiskey. I wish Gary would do more 53 gallon Barrels or build a rickhouse but he doesn't seem that interested. In an ideal world you could source some of his 15s and then finish them in a 53 gallon. I think his whiskey would do great if someone finished it in a Rum barrel. The one component his whiskey desperately lacks is a mid palate sweetness and rum finishing is great for that.

    I've been buying from a few small local distillers, and the big difference between the 2 fastest growing ones is that one is just selling everything they have as soon as they can call it what it is. The other has been holding back barrels and selling more aged stuff. The 2nd has become my favorite local dram, while the 1st even though they sell more are kind of dropping off my radar.

    When I lived in Witchita in 2008 I used to go to Jacob's all of the time for beer. Wasn't into whiskey back then though.

    Greetings from Ohio. Special Reserve used to be rare here in Ohio. The past year or so it can be found more and more. Not as much as this video haha, but it's not uncommon to find it here.

    CA, Weller SR 750ml is only on the shelf at $50-80. Any less, I haven't seen and if there is a drop it's the least amount of bottles. There is more EHT Small batch than Weller SR.🤷 Very nice stores with a large selection.

    I recently found a Soft Red Wheat here in Michigan. I don’t know if I got a bad bottle but good gracious it drinks so much higher than its proof.

    I remember a place years back in MA(like 30 years or more). It was called Ma's Liquors. Ma must have been pushing 85 to 90. Prices were all over the place. Walked in one day and grabbed some JD bonded. She rattled off a price that was WAY below what it was marked at. I corrected her and she got mad. She said I said it was blah blah. Problem was I guess many stole from her which was BS if true. Oh and the store was tiny. It was like shopping in a closet. Boy I miss Ma

    Weller special reserve is everywhere here in Dallas too. But when i was in Phoenix it was $300 on shelves. Crazy the difference state by state.

    Yeah here in Kansas we do get that SR once a month like clock work. But most stores may get a 107 one bottle once a year and eagle rare maybe a couple times a year. So even with great relationships 99% will never score 2 107's in a lifetime at msrp

    @Brewzle don’t sleep on the Boot Hill offerings. I am a bit biased as I live in Dodge City but you will have to visit the distillery to truly appreciate the juice. It’s 100% made from locally grown ingredients that the owner farms himself. Really awesome history from a really cool distillery. Hit me up if you come this way.

    On the west coast we get weller very rarely. I know of one store that actually tries really hard to get it maybe once every few months.

    My home town... i've commented on so many whiskey youtubers videos about how plentiful and cheap Wellers SR is here in ICT. Tom's is my favorite store in town my second is across the street from me. which I'm sure was on the list but couldn't make it to. Tom was my oldest son's Boy scout leader.

    Total Wine is only good for cheaper shelfer bottles a an occasional good store pick like the Jack Daniels SB Barrel Proof I got a while back. You have to be grand reserve to get any allocated releases unless the manager at that specific TW has connections with distributors and will occasionally put out good bottles for MSRP. I did find a Hardins Creek Boston there once at MSRP and snagged it.

    Lived in wichita for 30 years, bar manager for 10 years awhile back when I was just old enough to have the position. 107 had always been my favorite forever and was pissed when I couldnt get it while traveling. We never got a lick of unavailability here then found out how hard it really is to come by outside of here. I very likely could be clinically considered a hoarder now
