This was a roller coaster ride from the beginning. Absolutely no guarantee as to what bourbon would be available, and I was lucky enough to score this Weller Full Proof for MSRP!! I was just as shocked as the next bourbon hunter.
Nice Score!!! Definitely an employee trying to hide some Weller FP! I had that happen to me… Total Wine employees told me that they got no allocated bottles one day… went back the next week and was chatting with the manager and he said oh man I grabbed a Weller 107 last week when we got them in! I have not been back to that total wine since!
Congrats on the score! I always miss out on drops but got lucky over the Fall and snagged an Elmer T Lee and a Weller 12 for MSRP on the same day. It was a wild feeling! Weller Full Proof is my fave Weller. Weller Special Reserve is not my jam.
Pays to look around sometimes. Someone was definitely hiding that. I’ve found Blanton once behind a bunch of mid bottles on the shelf. Also got a Bakers 7 that was 8 y 11m that was last in a row of 7y 8m bottles.
