MADE A MISTAKE ON THE BUFFALO TRACE PRICE at 13:50 That price is for a 375ml, so we've gotta take back the prize for best price and give it to District Liquors for their $30 price! Thanks @OGbrick420 for pointing that out. Also, what we called the Booker's 2023-03 is actually the 2022-03. I guess sometimes you just see what you want to see! Haha!

All those expensive bottles in the window getting ruined by the sun. Crazy.

As a DC native.. the prices are insane because they can be. everyone there has money, and even the ones that don't do everything they can to look like they do, so they can charge whatever they want and it'll still get bought.

now i know where all of Virginia's allocated liquor ends up.

That one shop with all the Wellers, Pappys, BTACs...... Sitting in the freaking sunlight...... UGHHHH

Definitely want to see a vid on your Jack Rose experience..

It kills me to see these shops store those rare, expensive bottles right in the window, exposed to direct sunlight.

2:53 Thats a nice museum. At least they didn’t charge you an admission fee 😂

Is anyone else screaming at the the screen, "No!!!!! Don't put that in the window!!! Sunlight ruins bourbon!!!!!!"?

Love the video Chad and Sara! I would love to see a video of your pours (even if only for your patrons). You all are lucky. The last time I was in KY I was able to compare the Sazerac and Brown Foreman versions of Early Times Bottled In Bond at a Liquor Barn. I love liquor stores who offer pours!

Store 2 is a museum, not a store. Even asking $100 for KC 12.... $120 for Mckenna 10... yeah, even if they had something reasonable I'd never give that kind of store a penny of my money.

I love the hunting videos! I would like to see a video on the pours at Jack Rose please.

Would love to see more from your time at Jack Rose

Part of me always hopes that the stores who are charging outrageous prices for bottles eventually go out of business. It would serve them right.

Great production/editing Chad! And cheers to Sara for the "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" reference and the $.50 word "plebe". And YES, a Jack Rose pour video would be loverly. Because Chad doesn't have enough editing to do already. 😁

This comment is before the video but this video has to be fascinating! I lived in DC for 3 years and the best hidden gem bourbon finds were liquor stores in sketchy areas. Everything on the hill was usually overpriced...

These videos really make me appreciate how GOOD the bourbon market is in Detroit.

I love these hunting videos! Also, I'm totally an investor in Whiskey and Whiskers.

I am about visit Washington Statr next month, so I got super excited when i saw the title. 10min, I realized its Washington DC😂. Still watched the whole thing , great content you guys .

I work around the corner from Barmy and find most items are overpriced, but there are a few good buys. I’d been eyeing that Larceny C921 myself. Too bad about S&R! I usually have more luck there.

Thank you for showing/sharing the outrageous prices in D.C. Great video. I live in MD and find my best prices in OH when I get there. Yes, please post a pours video.

I worked in DC in the 90s, so I recognized a few of your locations, but not the stores since I wasn't into liquor that decade.

I love it when you two go hunting in a fresh region. I had to unhinge my jaw at the Pappy and Parker and Stagg and Weller lineups routinely on display at the first store you ventured into. The effect mercifully wore off over time. I always knew DC was a boss market for whiskey. Startled as a Wisconsinite to hear how many things you don't see on the shelves in the motherland of Kentucky. The bourbon game is so strange! We have a Honeypot in Madison which sells Blanton at $129, so good for them, but I am over it as a house staple these days. Totally agree with your Buffalo Trace price assessment. It's plentiful in southern Wisconsin in the 28-32 range, and my lush brethren have adopted it after graduating from years of Korbel consumption. Like Blanton's, I'm over it and on to new, fun bourbons. Fortunately, there's always more to discover and I know my favorite podcasters will get to it all in due time. Five stars as always for the work you two do.

The New Girl reference at the bakery was perfect

I’m so excited for your Charlie’s Batch Bookers review! Seems all the whiskey tubers have been dodging that one other than Mash and Drum. Charlie’s batch is one of, if not, the best bookers I’ve had in awhile.

That Shenk's wasn't a terrible price for a pretty rare bottle. That was also a 22-03 not 23-03

Drinking my OGD Bonded and shaking my head. Not at you guys or your selections, at the other Prices. :)

Jack Rose is my favorite spot in the city

I finally found an Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel reasonably priced @ $59. Don't sleep on those Glenallachie 12 & 15 @ about $60 & $80, great Scotch from Master Blender Billy Walker. Seems like there is a lot of BT stock these days just collecting dust @ crazy prices. I hope the flippers don't miss their window after the expansion stuff comes along ;-)

Granted there are some outrageous prices in DC, but I can find bottles I want there.

Local Drinking group about an hour south of DC. Wish we knew you were coming. We could have hosted you. Next time you come I will take you to A. Smith Bowman for a tour of Sazarac's test production distillery.

Please do a video about the pours you had in the restaurant.

I tried Bookers 2022-02 last fall and loved it, but they weren't being sold anywhere anymore that I could find. Then was on vacation at cape cod last week and found one sitting on a shelf at a tiny liquor store for 90.99! Snagged it immediately

Fun to see what people from kentucky think about dc stores! Surprised that dc has more selection than kentucky. I thought kentucky would by default be the bourbon capital. I now buy more from online than visit liquor stores. More niche bottles for cheaper.

Perfect timing on this video. I'll be in the DC area next week

Guys, This was the best Bourbon Hunting video anyone has ever done. No for real. Great video. 🥃🔥😎🇺🇲💪

It crazy how distribution works with whiskey. Buffalo Trace and Eagle rare always available here in California. My local grocery stores have BT year round and my Target has KC 12 year for $60.

I used to live in Arlington- just across the Key Bridge. Many of the stores were not there when I moved out of the area 12 years ago. The prices will be set based on the income of the area…which is ridiculous.. great video. Keep them coming.

It’s been terribly hot up here in the dmv. I felt kinda good that someone from outside of dc actually says it’s hot

I like when y’all do bourbon hunting!!

2022-03 Bookers It looks like a fun trip. You picked up some good ones for reasonable prices. THanks for taking us along. Cheers!

Glad to see another Hunting video from you guys. I live in Northern VA and Eagle Rare and Buffalo trace can NEVER be found in our VA ABC stores. At least know I know if I want to make the drive and deal with the traffic and parking I can at least find them at a decent price. Thanks for all the hard work you do.

More of these type videos plz

Please show the Jack Rose pours video!

oh ya, hunt videos are my favorite!

Thanks for the video. Went to Jack Rose and picked up the Peerless DO SiB. Also hit Dupont and got a Smoke Wagon Uncut The Younger and a MM BEP.

Hahahaha, DC is the Wild West of liquor sales! Great selection and terrible prices. That’s my stomping grounds and I rarely by bourbon in the city.

Those prices are absolutely bananas. So much cheaper on the west coast. Buffalo for $60?! I can get it for $20 at a normal grocery store. Oof.

Great video. Love these. The Ragged Branch has a great line; I’ve got 4 bottles (including their Secretariat finished one). My favs are Cowboy Cut and Secretariat.

Great content, I love these hunting videos! I live about 2 hours north of DC and have been considering making the trek. Now that I have a better idea which stores to check out I have no excuse not to! Will probably visit Jack Rose as well. Thanks!

Plus one for Jack Rose.

Man, for once I consider myself lucky, grabbed an EC Toasted for $60 last night. Great video and amazing to see all those bottles sitting there just waiting for taterdom to kick in! Cheers!

There are so many foreign diplomats, lobbyists, aides and businesspeople that are in DC regularly that they can charge whatever they want and it'll eventually get bought. And most of the locals are rich too.

Did anyone catch that subtle "New Girl" reference with the cookie?

I was in DC this week. Had a shot of old Forester's birthday. Great. Also went to a liquor store that had the birthday for $1500😂 and Stagg for 300.

I just found an Eagle Rare last weekend in SoCal for $80. FIrst time I’ve seen it in a LONG time, so I grabbed it! Sipping it now!

My neck of the woods. VA ABC has Blantons and ER at almost every drop. You should have visited MD, lots of store picks and better prices. 1 West prices are nuts but people with more money than sense do buy there...like Congressmen lol!

Every time I enjoyed a dram of the "unreplaceable" stuff I own I realize I lost a dram of the "unreplaceable" stuff I own(ed)😭.

Those Kilkerran 8 and that Longrow Red 15 at 7:29 😍(yeah I know, they're not bourbons, but they are awesome scotchs and hard to find). I love these bourbon hunting videos, thanks.

Don't sleep on the cvs's in Kentucky. I found a larceny bp, ECBP,ECT and a McKenna 10 in the one across from the Sealbach

from Maine where it is state controlled for liquor prices, no matter how big or small of a store everything is same price! I recently picked up an Eagle Rare for $40 and $65 for Blanton!

Love it and that's my challenge every trip to KY..bottles I want to purchase but realizing I need load them on plane for the trip home.

Charlie's batch my favorite bottle this year thus far. Great pick up!

Always enjoy your content, thank you for doing what you do! Absolutely do a video of the pours you enjoyed while in DC. So many of those stores were ridiculous, I'd be embarrassed to own a shop that was trying to charge some of those prices.

Thanks, great video...

I know you mentioned asking about prices on unmarked bottles, but do you ever try to haggle with store owners? I've talked people down $20-$50 in some cases, which makes a nice difference on certain bourbons. Love the hunting videos, and it's always cool to be in a different city than your own to see the selection.

Loved your hunting video. We were just in Kentucky and bought too much. If you’re ever in the Buffalo area, we’d give you pointers where to go or gladly be your guides. Keep up the great work!

Whiskey and Paws.. Bar full Bourbon and Golden Retriever puppy's I will invest

Potomac wine and spirits is great! Met a rep there for Katadyn Creek - excellent product!

Hahaha. I had a suitcase that looked like that!!! Brought home 5 bottles.

Lets see those pours! Great visit and tours...but those prices! Hard to get much down in GA too, but when I can get Buffalo or Eagle Rare it is a bit cheaper!

I’ve ordered from the DuPont store a couple times (including a john j bowman for 60 bucks) and they’ve shipped with no issues.

yes, pls post the video of the pours at Jack Rose....im headed there this Fall

Thanks for the good video and it all depends on where you buy in the states because prices fluctuate as we all know.

Weller Special Reserve Green bottle for $99.00?!!!! I just paid $28.00 for that bottle at my store here in KC. Sick!!! Eagle Rare I paid $45.00 bucks at my store and they almost never have it but when they do, they don't gouge their customers. This is just insane.

Ha! A video in my stomping grounds. Neat. 😊 I'm surprised you didn't swing by Modern Liquors, but there really are just so many stores in the district.

I was recently in Salem Oregon and picked up a Blantons sb for 64.99 and 2 eagle rare for 38 a piece great hunting video as always

Just found your channel. Enjoying the content and chemistry you both have. More of a scotch drinker but opening up to bourbon 👍👍

After seeing the prices, I'm glad our liquor stores in Idaho are state run so no retail markup... got a 1.75ml Buffalo Trace today for $50.83 (after tax). The selection may not be amazing, but they do get some cool stuff on occasion and allocated releases regularly

In San Diego, I just bought Buffalo Trace for $18 750ml. Lots of inventory. Also the Bookers 2023-01 for $99 if I bought 5 other bottles. Cheers.

Found KC12 in Massachusetts for $64 while on vacation. Got 1 for drinking while there and another to bring home. Don't see very often in GA.

Can usually find Kosher in Chicago for 79 tacos, at a large chain store

that buffalo trace @24.99 was a 375mL

Hey you two. Love the channel and the hunting vids. I gasped when I saw the Navasos Palazzi Bota Punta next the Eagle Rare at 3:55 of your video. It is my special occasion whisky. I'm a bourbon guy, but this stuff is my favorite. It's pricey, and the only whiskey I'll buy over $100. I get the OK from the wife since I only drink it with special guests. Very hard to find, only 900 bottles produced each year. Would love to hear your take on it sometime.

Great bottle hunt, thanks for bringing us along. Prices really are getting nuts for almost everything.

Ceiling whiskey .. sounds like a T shirt to me!

Just bought the Knob Creek 12yo for $59.99 in New Jersey. Has become a favorite.

Pours from anywhere any bar want them all please show more

I live here - and I Bourbon hunt elsewhere. The prices here are driven by the hipsters so to say and I find the those “unicorns” and limited editions in other states and smaller towns.

Thanks for this cool one folks and definitely bring on a Jack Rose pours video!

Friendly note, those bookers were 2022 not 2023 :) So that is why they were over priced. Also, wish I could find any Bookers near me...

D.C. is out they got dam minds on they prices. Glad I be in L.A. with plenty of 19 year stuff that tastes better than any whiskey. MMMmmmm 19 !!!

I get that knob 12 all day for 59.99$ here in Massachusetts! Love it.

I always fly Southwest cause 2 free checked bags means double the storage space

2022-3 Bookers is the "Kentucky Tea" Pricing is probably due to the "Minnick effect" as it was high on his "whiskey of the year" list

Y'all need to come to AZ Eagle Rare 10y is at WallMart here. My local shop is sub 40 bucks!

Looks like DC is a great place to find Bourbon! Any store that has floor bottles is my kind of place!

In va in a drop release I seen ec toasted for 55, ec barrel for 75 and a bookers for 90 I think. Not sure what batch. Also had Buffalo trace and eagle rare. Didn't buy any. 55 is high for me but looking at these prices I guess I should have got it.

Seen the Hirsch Single Barrel. Have a 6 year Willett Juice. Great Bottle. Also KC 12 and BT at local Walmart for fair prices.

You guys make the best bourbon hunting videos.
