Busters in Memphis usually always has it. You just have to ask. Got a bottle of black label Weller there last week too

Memphis is a bit far from home. But if I’m ever in that area I’ll check it out.

A whole shite ton of people got into bourbon in the past 8 years. It’s a supply issue. 8 years ago I could walk into any number of stores and buy it off the shelf for $46.
Buffalo Trace is finishing up a 3 billion dollar expansion and said their supply should increase by 2-3x in the near future. So hopefully running around looking for allocated bottles will once again be a thing of the past (at least for the stuff that shouldn’t be rare)

well these are aged so the quickest you would see a supply increase will be 6-8 years.

They are finishing up the expansion pretty soon and the supply is aging now and should start being distributed by 2024. At least that’s what they said in September when it was there for a tour.

I remember the first time realizing there was a supply issue. Coworker asked where he could find Blantons around 2014/2015 and I said Albertson's (because I always saw it there). Then he tells me no luck and that such and such store in town has a waiting list for one.

Blew my mind at the time.

I recall seeing it on the shelf at Martin’s Uptown in 2013, I only remember the year because it was the year I moved to New Orleans.
