Price isn't bad, I will give it a go next time I see a bottle. I have been doing the Evan Williams 1783 for like $30 for 1.75 liter bottle

I was driving by and figured that I would drop in. As I pulled up a dozen guys were rushing in the door and they all went straight to the counter where they put out the new bourbon. I held back as they all passed the counter, browsed the bourbon aisle, and then left. I had not been to a Specs in a long time as they opened, I guess grabbing up allocated bottles it still a thing.

There is an entire faction of people that make a living buying FOMO bourbon and reselling it on the secondary market. It's ridiculous.

The guys I see lining up to buy anything from BT are more the metrosexual type. Converse and man-buns. Doesn't really reinforce the bourbon drinker's attributes.
