You doing the tour first? I thought you had to do the tour then you get allowed to buy a bottle?

Blantons is good but that shits crazy. I’ve grown to discover I can enjoy a $30 bottle of Elijah Craig just as much as highly sought after and over priced bourbon.

Agree 100%

The hype is goofy now.

There are sooooo many whiskeys out there that are better, available and not explosively priced.

Why question what he likes? His taste is different than your taste. Get over it!

Grab me a weller and I'll give you $3.50 for it when you get back!

Honestly, the Kooper Family Distillery in TX has its show room on the way to Austin and their stuff is so damned pleasant.

It’s a pain to drive 3hrs round trip, but the booze is reasonably priced and available.

No, you can stand in line without the tour.

Because this is a message board not a text to your grandma who will tell you you’re special and she loves you.

Blanton's is a pretty good sipping whiskey but for the money there's a bunch of other bourbons I would buy instead.

I’ve waited in that line. Was lucky to get a bottle of Blantons. Was hoping to find some Elmer T Lee but no luck.

Yes. During the weekend. They must added another 200 people. Think of a long line at Disney!

I didn't shite on his quest for it, just a simple question. I don't know his area but I see Blantons quite regularly around town now ranging from $100-150. Just saying, don't think I'd stand in line for a couple hours for it, to each his own.
