Speaking of which, Matt, have you come across another bottle of this Kentucky Oak? I'm looking for one if you or anyone else see them around.

I'm trying to build a little Redbreast library and my bottle of the Kentucky Oak is gonzo...

Have you tried the 18? Came out of the expensive side, huh? Debating getting one... Some people saying it's better than the 21 and some saying it's meh...

I stopped at a random whole in the wall the other day, and they had one out for a backup. It was late so the guy at the counter was clueless on stock, if I get a chance I'll stop by again over the holidays.

Nope, not yet. The 21 is on my "someday" list, lol. I had one in my cart a few weeks ago, after my boss stopped by with news of a nice promotion. 10 minutes later he came back to say we didn't win the BIG job we've been waiting hear back on, and all that wind came right out of my sails, I never finished the purchase lol.

Yeah, man, if you do find one extra, please keep your Michigan buddy in mind, lol!! Thanks, man!

And sorry to hear about the backtracking on the job thing... Bummer for sure and not sure how that can happen. One might think people would be careful about those things. Maybe that dram could have sweeten the bad news though... Drink to celebrate and to commiserate, LOL!!

199 for the 18... Steep. The 21 is up to what, 300ish? Ouch... The 27 came out at $450 a few back and current batches are retailing for almost double that. Some stores selling for $1K, others for $550... Go figure...

So the promotion was legit and went through, it was just followed (like almost immediately) by news that the project we had spent the last 6 months chasing, that would have kept a whole lotta people very busy for years, didn't bounce our way. I got to enjoy the good vibes from the promotion for roughly 15 minutes - 10 of which I jumped on a trusty website to grab a RB21 lol. I was in the process of checking out when he came in with the news on the project loss. So yeah it was a drinking night to celebrate and dull the pain all at once. :wtf:

The 21 is $450+ around here.... :sick: Which is why I had it in my cart from an online place :). I've seen the 27 once, and it was like $750. I'm nowhere near that baller lol

Yeah, that makes sense. Also, the fact you were the one chosen for the promotion (that ended up not happening) is already cause for celebration...

$450?!?! Ouch... Not that different here in MI but then, not too often I buy stuff locally unfortunately. Next time I order some stuff from abroad, i hit you up to check if you want the 21, in Germany for exemple, it's about $200.

Not a baller to pay for that 27 as well, man... All I could do is to get a 2oz sample, LOL!

I saw redbreast Missouri oak. How many “oak” profiles are there?

I think just that and their Kentucky Oak edition

Is that the PX edition beside it in the purple box…I’m sure it’s way overpriced considering the Missouri Oak is 2 bills :(
I’ll look next time I’m there. This store is not a price gouging store generally, not sure if that’s high for the Missouri Oak

Just the two, Kentucky and Missouri oak. $199 is MSRP, but shelf prices dropped within a month or two of it coming out last winter. I wouldn't spend more than $125-$135 for the Missouri. I got my backup bottle for $100 a few weeks back.
 
The sag 9 is so good. I saw those redwoods last weekend, but waited for the haystack needle. Lmk what you think!

Today’s pickups - was hoping to get the rye, but the case “fell” and all the bottles broke at my store…this one is the 4 grain mash bill, 8yr 117.6 proof.

I missed the EHT BP batch 12 release by a few hours, am lucky to have been hunting the haystack needles so hard, I walked in just as these were being handed out. Cheers!

This was the one you got for me. I have a backup
Oh I know, I recognized the rick house & floor :) I bought & opened my bottle like a month or two before you got yours, and mine is still half full :D (I have a backup as well). I nurse this one given the availability and price tag lol
