It's a ruse that hopefully Balls will call them out on. 12 and 10 yr old Charter went by the wayside when ran out and couldn't/ wouldn't wait for that long aging process to re-supply. Only thing left was 8 year old Charter and now iit's gone forever. Shelves will soon be re-stocked but instead of labeled 8 yr old will be labeled 8 seasons old. New season is 6 months so will be 4 year old Charter. When demand keeps clearing shelves seasons will be down to a month or a week for Charter 8 for those thinking 8 means 8 years old unless Balls demands truth in labeling.

I just bought a handless handle of Buffalo Trace. I am a Makers Mark guy. BT could not hold MMs jock strap. But it was a lot cheaper ....

Reverse it for me. MM tastes too much like Tennessee whiskey to me.

Yeah, it's gone, but it can be found in bottles with Eagle Rare labels on them.

Is MM better? Yes. But when picking a mixer, price is a huge factor. This is why BT is my mixer of choice. I don't bother with MM anymore due to its price: it's too expensive as a mixer and not good enough as a sipper. I prefer Eagle Rare and Woodford Reserve for my sippers. They are superior to MM

I bought the last two half gallons in Virginia a few months back. The state run ABC commies will not be selling it anymore.

Damn didn't know of a shortage as I have a handle but it's running low.
Could have sworn I saw some at the pville garden Wal-Mart.

Trader Joe's whiskey is pretty good. About $15 for a fifth.
