Maker's Mark Lost Recipe Mocha

Has anyone seen this around recently? I know the Danvers Costco had a ton a few months ago but I'm worried I missed out on this one.

EDIT: FOUND! Thank you to all who helped. I learned that this bottle is only available through Costco, apparently.

South Shore Stores?

I’ll be visiting my parents in Hull for Thanksgiving next week and was wondering if anyone would be able to recommend me some stores to hit. I’m originally from Marshfield but didn’t get into bourbon until after I moved to Charleston, SC so I never really paid attention to the selection up there. I’ll also be proposing while I’m up there so if anyone knows a good shop on the south shore where I can get some celebratory bottles I’d greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Ohioan Visiting Boston This Week

This was a banger of a week for us here in Ohio. Red Weller comes out about once a month, and this was the week for that which is always nice. But today was also an annual statewide event called “Single Barrel Saturday.” Got picks of Elijah Craig, Frey Ranch, and 4 Roses. As a bonus, they also released some Blue Weller (not single barrel) and Wild Turkey 70th Anniversary.

I’m traveling to Boston for work this week. I hear Gary’s, Liquor Junction, Burlington and Gordon’s are good places to check out.

Really hoping to find a bottle of Found North since we don’t get that here and all the reviews on Reddit rave about it. Also happy to find store picks or good craft distilleries that don’t have nationwide distribution.

If you guys have any recommendations for bottles to look for or places to shop at, I’d appreciate any tips!

Any places worth stopping at west of Worcester?

I'm heading across the Pike later today for a college visit w/my son. Any places in western MA (or even eastern NY state) that I should consider making time to stop at? Good prices/especially good selection/perhaps the odd allocated bottle? That whole area is an unknown to me except for Table & Vine (which I didn't find terribly impressive the times I went there).

Dueling BT store picks

At Burlington W&S and Rapid Liquors. I picked up the Burlington one last night - they still had at least 20 or so bottles left. Rapid announced their pick this AM - supposedly 8.5 years old.

Jim Beam Winter Reserve?

I swear I saw this bottle a bunch of places not even a month ago and now I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any leads around the North Shore area of MA? Salem/Beverly/Danvers/Peabody/Swampscott.

BT Drop at MB Spirits Waltham

Snagged a bottle of Blantons for $63.99 today after overhearing another patron get a bottle and an ER10. Have to ask an employee.

They also had a chance to Blantons Gold for $129.99 but you have buy a store pick and get the right “key” to unlock it. Not sure what the actual odds are but pretty cool gimmick

NH distillers showcase

Hello all, friend and I have tickets to the distillers showcase in Manchester, NH on Nov. 7th. This is our first time attending so I was hoping some might have any type of info on what to expect. Is it just free samples galore? Do they sell bottles at the event? Or let you order bottles and have them shipped to a NH outlet to pick up later? I see there’s lots of restaurants listed as vendors as well.

Barrell sale @ Burlington W&S

A few Barrell selections are around 50% off. Given the typical price point for Barrell, could be a good option for trying them out.

Vantage: https://www.burlingtonwineandspirits.com/spirits/Barrell-Craft-Spirits-Vantage-Bourbon-w2044844ic
Dovetail: https://www.burlingtonwineandspirits.com/spirits/Barrell-Craft-Spirits-Dovetail-w6289045j1
Tale of Two Islands Edition 1: https://www.burlingtonwineandspirits.com/spirits/Barrell-Craft-Spirits-Dovetail-w6289045j1

I grabbed a bottle of Vantage, which I had heard lots of praise for but hadn't wanted to take a flyer on at $80. Anxious to try it.

NHLO ID question

Hey y'all,

I'm planning to go pick up my NHLO lottery bottle tomorrow, but I realized that my driver's license still has my old address from before I moved. Do I need to bring anything else to verify the address or is it OK as is?

Anyone had Remus 6-year Highest Rye Bourbon?

Recommendations one way or the other? Asking for a friend. Actually, asking for myself, as it's on major sale @BW&S.
