A few recent acquisitions 1980s bottlings of Glenfiddich 15 and 18. 1980s bottling of Macallan 12 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My summer planned trip to Cuba was scuppered so I did the next best thing... a whisky buying trip/tour of Scotland! Had a great week with a mix of rain and glorious sunshine. Some great pick ups too -

Blanton's gold US release

Everyone able to find Blantons. Never seen a bottle in my life... I need a distributor hook up.

Honestly the best way to get it atleast here in California is to make friends with store owners, I always get stuff put aside but I'm a loyal customer it's how I'm able to get HTF stuff and allocated bottles. Plus with so many more stores than allocations to go around you got just hunt and get to know the sales reps and when the delivery dates are, that's what has helped me.

We’ve got it sitting on the shelves where I live. The Gold is there too. I’ll send you one, but I live in Canada. Might take a while.

Ah, thats mighty kind of you. I'm just more complaining about seeing nearly 3 posts in a row with a bottle and me never seeing it. I appreciate the offer, but Im good with waiting around for it to come locally for U.S. MSRP. Luckily BT distillery did a huge expansion, so we should see increase in domestic supply... In 5 years or so. ?

You must live in a very skinny part of Texas that doesn't get allocations. But from what I've seen Texas got alot of great allocated stuff.

Nah, I live in the DFW metroplex. I just can't leave work to stand in line at 7am to wait until a store opens at 10am to get the really allocated stuff that sells out in minutes, e.g., Blanton's, Weller FP, EH Taylor, etc. So, I take what I can get if it's still there on my way home.

Soild pick, wish I could still find these sitting on the shelf. Can't wait for 2020 release 

Yea I found a nice little honey hole that has quiet a few gems at good values. They also had the 2017 small batch, 2018 130th anniversary, one other small batch vintage that I can't remember off the top of my head, ETL, etc... I should have stocked up and I didn't?
