Any recommendations on hunting some good Bourbon finds while in NOLA for the FSU game?

Martins Wine Cellar is your best place for selections. If you're looking for allocated stuff, give up. Nobody will have that on the shelves.

KEIFE & CO is a great little store in the warehouse district. You should ask if he has anything special in the back if you are not seeing what you are looking for.

Elios has a Tumbling Dice pick that is 116 proof and supposed to be excellent.

Breax mart on magazine has some stagg and Blantons in the back. Gotta ask

If you’re coming from BR you can try river ridge wine & spirits. They had some eagle rare and Elijah Craig barrel picks last week

eagle rare


I’ve been out of the game for a while. Is this hard to find these days?

I just went to Breaux Mart about an hour ago and “asked”. They seemed pretty clueless and said they didn’t have either. I’m guessing your luck depends on which employee you ask. Would love to hear some Breaux Mart success stories because I’m in there frequently.

Y’all should go try Savannah Discount on the Westbank. It’s a treasure trove and he gets awesome barrel picks. My buddy helps him pick.

Market on Magazine and River Ridge discount. He has amazing barrel picks and consistently has Eagle rare, Blantons and Elijah Craig Toasted amongst other great bottles. It's the same owner for both spots. His name is John definitely knows his shite.
