This move makes zero sense to me... they can't keep up with the demand of regular Blantons

Didn't know they shipped their barrel proof exclusively overseas.

The hype has way outpaced the actual bourbon.

Their barrel proof is really good... definitely lives up to the hype IMO

So next Winter, maybe spring a few stores will get some....

New shipments have bombarded NELA recently. But now it's priced anywhere from $29-$35 for a fifth. Used to could get a half gallon for that smdh.

I feel like they must know that the Bourbon boom is about to Bust.

Sazerac who own Buffalo Trace, are very smart and calculating

It's cooled off up here. Irish whiskey seems to be the "it" thing in the brown spirits market right now.

They have folks paying a $100 a bottle for what was barreled as Old Charter so I would say they have the best marketing team and stratagic plan on earth.

Blanton's on the shelf goes for between 45 and 100 depending on where I see it.

Doesn't seem near as hard to find as it was a year ago.

The ABC store near me got a shipment of mini Blanton's in. $20 a bottle, limit 2 per customer. They sold at least a dozen while I was in there.
