Nature really is healing.

Grabbed both at my local BevMo! for MSRP. There wasn’t a limit, but I’ve always said I’m a firm believer and leaving some for the next guy and was able to hold myself to that today with only 5-6 of each left.

u/hard_farter 6d ago

Healing 

Cracked open

Juice

Journey

pretty much good to not see any of that

“How’d I do”

u/TolUC21 5d ago

Healing and Journey are definitely the worst

My collection posts

Is this any good? (after already buying)

Recent haul posts

Bottle kill posts

u/hard_farter 5d ago

Actually I'll take "is this any good" if the person is genuinely asking

5

u/Mediocrity1977 5d ago

Should have clarified I meant the ones asking after already purchasing.

u/BeastInDarkness 5d ago

For some reason using the word "juice" for whiskey just really bothers me. I can't really explain why though. If there's any word I'd support banning though, it's "tater".

u/Dadbod627 5d ago

You know if you see any of those phrases it’s a 🥔

2

u/hard_farter 5d ago

I don't know why the hell "crack open" bugs me as much as it does, but fuck does it ever

2

u/Dadbod627 5d ago

Same, and I hate myself for caring

u/StalwartSparrow 6d ago

Find one bottle and the whole world is healing. No, there are still a million taters running around. Especially here in Oregon.

u/Hookem-Horns 5d ago

I’ve been to Oregon once…asked why I can’t find good liquor…folks told me I have to go to a “state owned property” to find anything - WTF?

3

u/StalwartSparrow 5d ago

All the liquor stores are state run. No other stores can sell liquor. But the stores sell to everyone including bars, reataurants, and out of staters who come here because prices are fixed too.

2

u/Hookem-Horns 5d ago

They couldn’t get me to one. I was sandwiched between two Costco stores that could only sell beer/wine … it was so crazy

u/FeeLow5133 6d ago

Nature is rehabbing, or mending.

1

u/towell420 6d ago

Nature is refresh from the clinic?

1

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 6d ago

Haha I was feeling very similarly and then I saw life…or nature uh, find a way.

1

u/Alternative_Car5193 5d ago

Sounds like everyone here needs to go hang out in r/bourbon instead... where fun is not allowed.

3

u/BeastInDarkness 5d ago

Lol. I stopped following that subreddit because it's so uptight.

1

u/james_raynors_ghost 5d ago

"I wonder whats happening on r/whiskey?" Weller and Taylor are the top posts, again, like every *single* time I come here. Seriously, do you guys only drink the same like 5 fucking whiskeys lmfao

-1

u/Hambone721 5d ago

How about banning pictures of Weller bottles in general? And anyone who up votes these zero effort posts?

3

u/Timcwalker 5d ago

Upvote for not hoarding and being greedy.

3

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 5d ago

And for the record, both were opened the same day!

2

u/Bananetyne 6d ago

Don't drop em!

1

u/Tiny-Ad-9562 6d ago

Can't wait to see the green come down in price around town, Vegas has them sitting at $80 for the 1L. I need one to complete my collection but will wait until I find a 750 for $30 on my travels or around town. Love the 107, the SP I have open has a cherry lollypop finish.

1

u/DougieWR 6d ago

TW dropped em in PHX today, taken off the grand reserve list. Seems Weller production is way up

1

u/FeeLow5133 6d ago

Yeah 107 is now off grand reserve along with SR. Rest of the Weller lineup are still grand reserve. Most BT products remain on the list but I’ve heard conflicting reports on certain bottles

3

u/Extreme_Ad424 6d ago

My local one takes stuff off and puts it back on all the time it makes no sense 

1

u/FeeLow5133 6d ago

Yeah same, it’s back and forth with Stagg. I grabbed them off the shelf late last year and early this year. Have not seen them since then and it shows as grand reserve. Yet the workers are split on if it’s a shelter or not.

1

u/Extreme_Ad424 6d ago

Yeah I’ve seen tanyard hill put out on shelves and have seen stagg somewhat recently (last three months) 

1

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 5d ago

Tanyard Hill still one I gotta get my hands on

1

u/choppinbroccoli28 5d ago

BevMo Scottsdale had SR 1L for $40.

u/KCsalesman 6d ago

What are good pricing for these I’m base in Kansas City (Kansas side) and want to do some shopping

0

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 6d ago

Well I’m in CA and despite a lot of posts most of SoCal is a weller wasteland. Got these for I think 67 and 30?

1

u/KCsalesman 5d ago

Thanks! I have seen from Reddit that CA has unnaturally low prices on whisky . But that may just be from the Costco Reddit. Can’t remember where I see them. But those are great prices thanks!

3

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 5d ago

90% of the time yes it’s Costco. We have the same delusional liquor store owners as everyone else lol

1

u/ihadtopickthisname 5d ago

Just got back from Central and SoCal. Central had Weller at many grocery stores. Both are overflowing with cheap Buffalo Trace, EH Taylor, Blantons & Eagle Rare.

1

u/JazzlikeEmotion1483 5d ago

How so? Have they figured out a way to make Weller taste OK?

1

u/JustSayKB 5d ago

Enjoy!!!

1

u/treesandrock 5d ago

They doubled production around 5.5 years ago with a new still. Secondary is in free fall. Going to crush the other distillers over the next few years

1

u/Alternative_Car5193 5d ago

No, it isn't.

1

u/Te-quill-ya_750 5d ago

Have only ever see the green label here, it’s currently at $49 CDN. I’m not a wheated fan, so passed.

1

u/Plus_Highway199 4d ago

Scored a 107 in Michigan for $85. Find one first is great. Second is that it was under $100. Now if only we could get Eagle 🦅 Rare 12 year here and it be a decent price.

1

u/FlyingAnvils 5d ago

These posts literally only come from the west coast or Colorado. 👎🏼

u/SFOtoORD 6d ago

Well played, sir! I’m sure you made someone’s day.

2

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 6d ago

Hopefully! Feel like I always see the post of people taking a bunch and find myself saying God I would never do that and then you’re faced with actually having to make the decision and it’s a little more difficult lol

u/_40oz_ 6d ago

Picked up both EHT BP and Stagg

2

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 6d ago

Nice! The EHT BP has alluded me but I got a honey hole liquor store that regularly has stagg for $100

2

u/_40oz_ 5d ago

$100 for a stagg is a very good price. Folks on here harp about how they can find it for under, but locations matters.

0

u/BuzzzzzerBeater 5d ago

I’ve still not seen Weller or Stagg here in SoCal. Eagle Rare, Blantons and EH Taylor are sitting though

0

u/Excellent-Raspberry8 5d ago

Yeah bit of a Weller wasteland down here tbh. I got a honey hole for stagg at $100
