Where can I buy Blanton's in New Orleans? I can't get it in Houston right now.


Last time I was in New Orleans Dorignac's had a few bottles of private barrel Blanton's for $60. Breaux Mart in River Ridge had a couple of bottles and also Martin's on Veterans had a couple of bottles for $50. Several places in Baton Rouge received Blanton's in the last week or two as well.

So apparently, one of the people with us on our cruise, has connections to the Pappy family. I got a text asking if I wanted some. Not sure what product I will see, but my answer was yes. Whatever it is, I will take it...

Don't tell people about my secret Blanton's stash!

They almost always have it. I think I may be the only person buying it.

How is that Stagg Jr? I love the regular Stagg but it seems like I've read some negitive reviews about the Jr

First batch was so bad I never got another. But I have heard it had gotten better.

I had a dram of the newest batch. It's pretty tasty. Still has a bit of ethanol burn but decently complex.

I had the JD barrel proof last weekend and it was spectacular. I would easily pay 62.99 for it. It was 133.8 proof. A+ juice
