Any spots in BR carrying this? I honestly haven't paid attention or been looking for any woodford lately. But Derby week kinda makes me wanna snatch a bottle.

Pounding EC12 tonight. Been a shitty Monday. Saw this on r/bourbon recently and thought I might bring the discussion here.

You have $250 and need 6 bottles of bourbon for your bar. What do you buy that is readily available in your location?

Mine will be boring as frick cause I live in a controlled state. There are a few (McKenna 10 esp) that I love but can't get I this fricking state.

1. Wild Turkey 101 ($25) Because it's cheap and awesome and makes great cocktails.
2. Elijah Craig 12 year ($26) I still can find the age stated bottles in my area and this shite is good.
3. Eagle Rare 10 ($30) Can't imagine not having a bottle of this around.
4. Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve ($50) Really is an amazing bourbon. Amazingly smooth for 120 proof.
5. Blantons ($57) Really nice, classic top shelf I gotta have it.
6. Bookers ($60) Straightforward and delicious. I enjoy Bookers.

colors just a tad darker. Taste difference is negligible. I do a 1 to 1 ratio.

Keep hearing of poor mans pappy being a mixture of 2. Can anyone indulge and point me in the right direction on obtaining these?

Weller 12 & Old Weller Antique 107

Many do a 50/50 mix, some go 60/40 in either direction...whatever your mix, you gotta let it marinate around 3-4 weeks before consumption.

Now the bad news...in my experience, I haven't seen a reasonably priced bottle of either in almost a year. Last one I got was a handle of 12 outside of Austin about a year ago.
