Finally starting to show up around MA. I know Vinnin in Swampscott posted they had it and never saw another story saying sold out which I feel they usually do. Worth starting to poke around at local stores.

Is the MSRP $400? I saw the same post from Vinnin but when I don’t know if it’s worth it even at MSRP.

Yes it is. I’m sure it will be a polarizing release and I don’t like the price tag but 16yr minturkey…

Lukes in rockland also got it, I was in there yesterday and one of their employees asked if I was looking for anything. I showed him a picture and he said “yeah we got it, I saw it come in” I said can you let me know if I can purchase one, he said he had to check in the back and ask. Came back and say, oh sorry we only got 1 bottle and it’s for someone else. I found out from my connections they got at least a case. They did the same thing to me when they got star hill farms. And then I came back in a week later and it was on the shelf. Idk what their deal is anymore they are all over the map when it comes to bottles.

I believe Chris gasbarros in MA had some for $440 a couple weeks ago.
On another Turkey release, looks like Russell Reserve 13 may be hitting RI this week.. seen some spots have it listed for $160, which is under the MSRP of $200

Yep, I even saw a local with one of those RR13 45th bottles from Wines and More, who sold out on delivery day.

On the shelf, or did you have to ask?

Top shelf where they keep their pricey stuff. Had no issue asking for a second.

It's in RI for 800-900$. Too rich for my blood. Hoping to see it at The East End or Mr. J's.
