As someone who has never had a drink and dont plan on drinking alcohol I feel like im becoming a connoisseur in the bourbon world just by watching all these videos over the last year
It's fine not to drink alcohol, but it's been around for thousands of years, in one form or another. Abusing it is not good, but abusing anything is bad. So, because you do not drink, I will have a drink for you. Cheers . . . . .
@@noapologizes2018 Yeah and I see how its anti bacterial aspects has helped humans when clean drinking water was hard to find. But at its core its poison, that your body converts to a worse poison. But im not going to judge anyone as its their own choice 👍
Great video!!! My dad and I were the ones that drove from TN. He and I cracked ours open that night when we got home (it’s awesome for those lucky enough to get one), and the other 4 were gifted to my brothers for the holidays. This drop made a lot of folks in Middle TN happy! Thanks again, Brewzle!
Great video. I don't like the secondary market. I'm not so upset when they are buying one bottle, but I know flippers that have hookups and they buy tons of bottles, and no one else gets one. I lost out on a Marker's Mark Cellar Aged due to a store knowingly selling to a flipper and let them buy all they had. It's not good. They are increasing the price of whiskey overall
A fellow Norman, OK resident here. I can’t even imagine how long that man has waited in line at Byron’s in OKC for their allocated drops. Godspeed to him! 😂
The only problem with flippers, is they tend to buy them all and as you stated it is part of the problem with shortages of goods. If a person can make some coin by flipping it..do it, but leave some on the shelves for others....as in all things...do in moderation.
If they do it that way, where they can only buy 1 or 2 before everyone else gets a chance to buy them, I have zero problems with it. If you're close enough to go to the store, you had your chance, and if you don't, you never had a chance at those bottles anyways. That being said, it's disrespectful AF to go put them up for sale from the parking lot of the store who didn't upcharge YOU for them.
4:07 I make my TH-cam debut. Great event, bottles, and content! Enjoyed the Crittenden's barrel 666 for Halloween and eager to try their Three Ryes Men coming in a few weeks. Keep up the good work, TJ!
The craziest thing to me is stores not offering samples of their store picks. There's way too much bourbon out there these days and if your thought is to spend all this money on a barrel for me to buy it instead of something off the shelf, why would I?
we so far have sampled all our barrel picks here at spillway with the exception of the willet 10 year old. it is such a limited pick item we did not want to take one away from a customer just to verify the quality that willet is known to put out
There are many states that don’t allow samples. I’ve unfortunately never sampled a bottle before buying. I’ve learned which stores near me I can trust at this point.
Just got into bourbon; started with OF 86 which was good but I got a bottle of Buffalo Trace and that actually tasted better and smoother. Tried em both in an Old Fashioned and damn they are delicioso. Wanna try Eagle Rare next
Another great video man. I picked up the Elijah Craig barrel proof last night. It’s a great bottle for sure. The next bottle on the list is either the small batch vdn finish Huber, or the jack single barrel barrel proof if I can find one.
Thanks for the Mississippi video. I grew up a few miles from where that spillway liquor store now exist. Of course that store was not around back 30 years ago but it was a nostalgic watch. I live in Louisville now and love the bourbon culture. Keep up the great work sir!
You do you but when they flip the bottles like that the liquor stores start to jack up the prices to. Which sucks makes it hard to get some of these bottles
Hello TJ, The secondary market for willet purple top 10 years is around 500-600 dollhairs depending on the mashbill. 2k for 10yr is crazyness and would never sell. OG mashbills usually higher in price and the high rye or high corn mashbills are cheaper sometimes 400-500.
So I am from Canada, we get very few bottles up here. We have a liquor release and you need to show up the evening before if you want to get anything good. We are regulated so they can not mark anything up here. Will be making a trip across the border to go on a hunt.
15:17 I’m in the middle, I collect other things. But - if I travel I will hit up shops and see what they have to buy. And if they have a good selection and I have the money I will buy as much as possible.
I find 10 year purple tops all the time for under 500 around here. They often sit on the shelves at or above MSRP for weeks. I guess there is a limited subset of drinkers willing to pay that much for a bottle so they don't sell. I don't know anyone in their right mind that would pay $2k for most purple tops - those flippers are gonna be stuck with those for a while.
Yeah, Purple tops have lost their luster pretty hard. A year ago I think flippers were moving a few bottles but each week the hype slows. Also the hype for stuff like that always slows during allocation/LE season. People willing to pay up for Willet are instead spending up for BTAC, Generations, 4 Roses LE, and ETC this time of year. Sadly... as that stuff drys up they move back to paying wayyyy to much on overpriced stuff like Willet. Oh well, not my problem. I am only 1 man and I can only drink so much whiskey. I find more rare stuff at MSRP each month than I can realistically drink anyway. Each month I find at least one or two bottles like Stagg, Midwinters, Bombergers, Michters Toasted, Octomore, Weller 12, or etc. Those few bottles each month plus the normal things like ECBP/Larceny BP/Russels Private Select are more than enough. I might kill 1 bottle a month unless I have friends over so the collection just swells and swells
@@johnnyaguilar5018 Depends on a lot of factors - proof, age, etc. I have seen hazmat bottles trade for $1500+ on secondary but most 10yr 120-130pf bottles go for under 500 now.
8:04 My man, if you only have $600 in your bank account you shouldn't be buying expensive store picks. Get some savings built up before spending your money on whiskey. There is plenty of good stuff under $30 that can hold you over while you build some financial safety. Whiskey will be there in the future.
Revival is top teir fantastic! If you are ever within an hour of the place it's a must stop. The dusty collection is insane! Brad is a super knowledgeable guy and great to chat with. It's worth a trip in it's own to stop in.
To all the “merch” comments in the video It’s true you’re brand is so likeable it’s beyond the burboun You’ve sold yourself as a very genuine person and we adore that
One of my favorite scotches is Ardbeg's Wee Beastie. A young 5 year old age statement, that tastes like it too. Heavy peat, bbq, sap, pepper notes. Let's goooo.
You can’t control what someone does with a bottle once they leave, but what I have a harder time with is liquor stores buying below MSRP then selling at secondary market prices. There’s another liquor store in the area that is hoarding all the allocated stuff to sell at secondary prices. Pretty ridiculous
I literally don’t even drink and haven’t in my life. I’m twenty-two. These videos are literally just comfortable and wholesome. 💀I loved the shorts and testing drinks and combinations and flavor profiles, I wanna go to restaurants and give out stars one day. You deserve to give stars to liqueur.
Buying a mass quantity ..u know 4 bottles and selling them on secondary is BS.... I understand buying g 2 bottles and drinking them everyone needs a back up... if you don't like it, makes a good gift
@@jj18057 Not really. It's not a legal activity to sell on secondary and it artificially inflates an already inflated market by further increasing scarcity. I don't think it's whining at all to think it's a cheap shot for people to buy extra to turn around and re-sell them. Buy it to drink it, share it with friends and have an experience together. Collecting dust in the basement or making money illegally are just goofy ways to be in the bourbon market.
You should try drinking Japanese whisky some time it’s really good . has great flavors. My favorite is a bottle called from the barrel . Solid whiskey.
@x5j94 you would be surprised dude . Japanese do know there whiskey really well . but guess you don’t know much about whisky so don’t really care what you think so have a nice day
honestly if someone's flipping bottles and you're willing to pay that price sure someone in person might not get them but especially with that much at the store that just means more people can get some
19:00 my oppinion is that, anyone and everyone should be able to buy and do whatever they want with the product they bought, and in general no whisky is worth drinkling if its going for a ridiculous amount of money, im sure if its popular it will taste nice, but theres plenty of whiskies for 30 to 100 dollars that are just as nice maybe 10x more, its upto whoever whether they want to drink or not, but personally i think the money you could get flipping a whisky, could be used for way more productive things then the bragging/flexxing of drinking a alocated or fancy bourbon, its down to personal oppinion or taste but honestly i genuinely think having 1000+ dollars is better then drinking a whisky you know is going for a stupid amount secondary market, especially when so many whisky bars or pubs will sell samples.
I wish people who flip bottles all the luck in the world. It's a free market. If you can't get your ass in line to purchase one for yourself and you have more money than brains, go for it!
i love telling friends and family about the "bottled in xyz, distilled in Indiana" trend. They all think its wild the bottles aren't produced in the state listed on the bottle
Good Morning Sir, Hi from Canada, I came across your videos and have watched a ton since finding them. Alas in Canada we don't have access to many of these bottles. I am a newby, with Bourbon only a week or so , so far. And in Canada We are regulated to a got run liquor system. All stores are run by the LCBO which is all stores. We have no independent stores at all. Love your videos, I am having trouble with the taste and ability to drink the stuff lol, But I don't mind it mixed. Do you think in any realm it's ok to like many types of bourbon but mixed, I love the whole aspects of Bourbon, but the taste Kills me. I'm getting there, just wish we could get many of the types you get in the US but availability is almost non existent. I bought a Buffalo trace, 80 proof and a bullet Bourbon, love em mixed with Dr Pepper lmao. Keep it up and thx for introducing me to Bourbon, your videos made it happen Thx again Sir
Not if you like driving, meeting other enthusiasts, really want a purple top and want a story to tell. Sure you could save a lot of money and time buying on secondary but anyone can do that.
I feel like people flipping bottles hurt great customers looking for hard to find bottles!….what do you think of the retailer opening the hard to find bottle right after the sale? Would help secondary pricing?😊 keep the great videos coming sir!
It’s terrible if you want to give the bottle as a gift or want to open it for a special occasion. You can’t even bring it in your car if it’s been open, legally speaking. It’s a terrible idea
I get everybody is trying to make a buck and retailers are glad to sell out, however, it prices the rest of us out of stuff. Worst part is secondary goes crazy, it goes 2x , 3x and suddenly its 5x .
@@Brewzle thanks for the response. how do I find these bottles in my area? I’ve looked on FB marketplace and in groups. If it’s out there, in my area, it’s very black market. It’s harder to find than just hunting it down.
The flippers annoy me, but the real problem is people who are willing to pay 4-5x retail for bottles. If people keep overpaying for bottles people are gonna keep selling them.
Yep, blame the buyer not the seller. I bought a MMCA for $250. I’m not gunna flip it, but if somebody offered me $1,000 just so they can have it, who’s fault is that? Not mine. He made the offer.
