    Love your channel and your vibe. If you ever come to Charlotte I can give you a handful of stores to check out. Got old fitz 10 yr and weller cypb today all MSRP on a store grand reopening and I was over 70th in line. Had to pass on weller 12 , FP stagg, blantons gold store pick because they had so many options. The blantons gold Store pick was $128.These bottles are out there if you know where to go and who to talk to. Might not be every day but they are around. Don't pay that secondary. Only time I use secondary is for trade value if I find a bottle I necessarily don't want but can use it to get one I do. Brewzle will be in Charlotte Monday at Southers Spirits. The place I was at today said they will be doing another event in 5 weeks. Would be great content and nice bottles

    I know nothing on Dark Arts other than it is hyped often and their finishes are a bit heavy kinda like Oak&Eden finishes are heavy with that spire in the bottle. Bulleit 12 is a budget MGP 95/5 rye that makes any other non cast strengths fall short with their price tags. Lastly, I personally did not like Clyde Mays; That one will likely be another Old Fashioned maker for you.
