- In this video, Christine and I go over our May 2024 bourbon and whiskey haul. We did a bit of personal travel in May going to Paris, France, Las Vegas, and San Francisco, along with some local pick ups here in the DMV (that’s what the locals here call the DC, Maryland, Virginia area). I was able to pick up some EH Taylor Single Barrel doing some virtual bourbon hunting, and I also hit on a local lottery to buy a Van Winkle Lot B 12 Year.
In summary, we picked up the following:
Stellum Black Label Bourbon
Old Soul Bourbon
Reservoir Wheat Whiskey
Ironclad Maple Barrel Finished Bourbon
Crown Royal 18 Year
Jim Beam Black 7 Year
Redwood Empire Pipe Dream
Redwood Empire Lost Monarch
Smoke Wagon Uncut the Younger
Smoke Wagon Desert Colt
Russell’s Barrel Select BevMo! CNA
Russell’s Barrel Select BevMo! TYB
Weller 12 Year French Version Box
Eagle Rare
Bomberger’s 2023
EH Taylor Single Barrel
Blanton’s BevMo! Store Pick
Michter’s 10 Year Rye

Congratulations on your daughter’s graduation! Amazing selection!
Thank you so much!
Stumbled onto your channel. I live on the outskirt of San Francisco. Recently picked up some Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirirt CN-E. I'll keep my eye for some RR barrel select. Caught a JD10 at Bevmo on a late saturday afternoon. 🤷😅
Nice haul. you found some awesome bottles at great prices .
Been bringing 5-7 bottles back from other countries. Saw 5 liters on TSA website per passenger. Haven’t had an issue yet.
Did you declare that many bottles? I read the same thing you did with TSA limits, which is correct, but i also found CBP info stating 1L per person. I’ve also been told that the duty is not bad per extra liter as well…somewhere around $2.5-3/bottle. So maybe not a big deal either way! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great finds!
Thanks for watching!
Another local DMV channel! Cheers, keep up the great work
Hey, thanks!
My first time watching your channel. Good Stuff! I'm here in Yorktown, VA. That last VA drop was crazy! I picked up an ECBP524 yesterday and the Beam House Bookers today. That's a full week after the drop! I did see Murray Hill Club on the shelf all week between VB, NN and Yorktown.
Thanks for watching! The last drop was a surprise! It was supposed to be just store picks from that email we got. My wife and I were actually in Maryland that morning for a lottery of prized whiskies. We didn’t win anything, but did get a slightly overpriced Blanton’s $80…LOL. On the way back home, we decided to stop by an ABC and saw some allocated bottles. I got the same bottles you did! Have you had a chance to try either one?
Nice haul
Appreciate it
Just dropped by to show fellow bourbon hunters some love .
We appreciate it!
Nice! I'm in Northern VA, and also travel a lot - headed to Vegas in August, Ill have to check out Lee's!
If you’re interested in some Willett Purple Tops, they had some in some of the west Vegas shops. Also, there’s a ton of John J Bowman in Vegas if you’re hunting for it.
@@barrelmandrinks luckily I stocked up on Bowman barrel strength before it went allocated in VA - thanks for the purple top though!
❤ showing some love as well!
I appreciate it!
Where did you find a Weller 12 boxed??? Never seen it come in a box before. Thought you said you guys found it overseas?
Hi, thanks for watching! We found our W12s in Paris, France. I’ve actually seen it in three different Parisian shops. Le Caves du Roy, Le Whisky Du Maison, and one other…I think Whisky Spirits. The wording on the back of the box is in French, instead of English which is typically the case with American Whiskies sold overseas.
Headed to Vegas at the end of July. Which stores do you recommend? I know you mentioned a few. I think I may only have time fore like one or two. Which ones would you say are worth it.
Definitely look up inventory on Lee’s Discount Liquors. If you find something online, give the store a call to confirm it’s still available, then head over there. I’ll post a video on how I did this very soon. Total Wine has a few stores in the area as well. We’ve been lucky finding Blanton’s, Eagle Rare and Hancock’s at TW just walking in by luck.
Nice haul. Are there often availability on the EH Taylors in Virginia?
Thanks for watching! I don’t think so. This was the first time I’ve seen EHT SiB in the wild and not at secondary. Lee’s has been decent with getting drops of allocated bourbons. When we were in LV a couple months ago, I visited a Lee’s Discount Liquor up north. Maybe Aliante, but in that area, and the guy there mentioned that they had a drop of George T Stagg at their store. He even showed me the manifest for that delivery to their store. I was hunting Old Forester 1924 that month and some stores showed inventory, but that’s when I learned that you should call before driving over.
Nice haul but had to get them out of the country. Hard to find in the U.S
Yeah. These are really hard to find at decent prices for us. I’m lucky that I have work that gets me to different parts of Europe, but I’d really like to do a hunt in Japan if I could! Thanks for watching!
Ya'll had at me at"FOMO"!!!
Thanks for watching!
Wait, don’t Laotian people drink Hennessy Cognac only?
Any recommendations in the LA Area? Our bevmos only seem to get eh small batch, Blantons, and eagle rare.
I haven’t been to LA in a bit, but I think Whiskey Bank on UA-cam is in the LA area and he’s mentioned some standard grocery stores and Total Wines having some good drops now and then. If you want a great bourbon from Bevmo, try their Russell’s store picks. I just picked up two different rickhouses (A & B) that they picked and they’re so good if you like em somewhat fruity and sweet. That’s if you like Russell’s or WT of course.
Nice haul
Thanks for watching
