      I know this is an older comment/video but I agree 100 % EHT Small Batch by itself is $90-$100 secondary these days and EHT SIB goes for about $200. I have paid ridiculous secondary prices when I first started collecting, but I try my best to avoid secondary as much as possible. It all depends on how bad I want the bottle, but unfortunately wake county is the WORST place for bourbon collectors so raffles have been my best bet.

    I just discovered your channel after having been into whiskey for about a year or so. I've been watching the tribe guys since, but this is so much more my style. The zero fucks given style of bottle flipping Blanton's is awesome to see. You guys aren't youtubers, you're dudes I would hang out and drink whiskey with lol. I been practicing bottle flipping thanks to you... with EW BiB. Keep em flippin.

    I walked into a Total Wine in Houston yesterday to grab a gift for someone else and managed to find an EH Taylor small batch just sitting on the shelf. I've never even seen one in any store here. $44 later and a unicorn sitting on my shelf. Sometimes really nice things just happen out of nowhere.

    At least two of our stores don't charge over retail for allocated bottles. There's basically a lottery/list but you pay normal price. They're concerned about a long term relationship with customers.

    Just walked out of a rare liquor shop in midtown Manhattan that put the Taylor Barrel Proof at (wait for it...) $895... I literally laughed at the guy. Bourbon prices are completely out of control. It's seriously giving the product a bad reputation. I MIGHT have paid $400 because it is SO hard to find, but $900? F- that guy.

    I won a bottle of Blantons Gold in an auction (paid $72 for the entries) a while back. Don't care much at all about regular Blantons so I offered up a trade. The result was my Gold for an EHT SiB, ECBP A120, and a kicker 2oz sample of WLW. I've never had Gold but I based my potential thoughts on my opinion of the regular offering. Either way, I think I made out pretty good on the deal.

    Dan,Where did you get your tasting glass? It looks like a nice glass. Taylor’s single barrel is a lovely expression. Taylor’s bib small batch is in my normal rotation at $55 a bottle at an out of the way shop here in Maryland. Only one shop I can find Taylor’s and luckily it’s the same shop that carries tom’s foolery,another of my favorites that is in full time rotation. The bottles that stays in full time rotation are turkey 101,Taylor’s small batch,Toms Foolery bib,balcones blue corn and for a rye I usually keep a sagamore on hand. For scotch I prefer Isly,either laphroig or Ardbeg,at the moment it’s Ardbeg wee beastie.

I STILL have a 1/4 of the bottle left because we don't get the line here. When you find it TODAY, which is almost never...it's 3-4x retail. Just wtf! I LOVE the juice but this is allocation non-sense is OUT OF HAND.

    I found Rock Hill Farms on the shelf here in Chicago for a small price of $320. 😕

    Do these again. Prices have changed quite a bit since then, but now that the prices are starting to come down…what should we pay.

    Curious, what are a couple of your go to whiskies (generally available) around the $75 range? I cannot get Blanton's, one of my personal favorites, so I consider Booker's (~$70) to be my best bang for my buck at the price point as it's very accessible in the Mid-West.

      For me, Sean, I'd say 1920 at 60 bucks is a little more expensive daily that me and my wife both really enjoy.
