I'm the stock manager at Marketplace Spirits, im also a big bourbon head. I did specifically hide that over dunked makers in the back for people to find 😂. And of course I had the day off when you came in. I would have loved to talk to you man

The accent changed real fast when he was talking to black folks lmao

Man GTS for $1299 I found mine this year $172 out the door ,,, Nice hunt Thanks

Oof, that first store prices and Benchmark in glass case 😂

Thanks for giving Sumter some love. My in-laws are here, so I get to hunt periodically. WHOLESALE always has a smiling folks. Also got my first (2) RR store pics there. Good memories 🍻

Great selection. I found the Knob Creek Bourye a few weeks ago. One of my new favorites. Bought a backup. Cracked open the MM Heart Release last night. Really enjoyed the neck pour. My local store has the Heaven Hill 7 Year BIB for $37. 🥃

Awesome video. I lived in Sumter for a while as a kid. I'll definitely have to check these stores out next time I'm in town.

Man, another great video and hunt! So cool that you ran into a Patreon subscriber as well! I'll have to be on the lookout for that Knob Creek bourye and still looking for that @BourbonHunter trip down to Texas!

Got the 2024 Makers for $73, wouldn't have normally picked it up, but I was going to a bottle share and I knew people would love to try it. Mixed reviews, but most enjoyed it. Not every bottle will please the crowd, but glad I got it.

I'm from Sumter and I never thought I'd see a bourbon hunting video there. I'm sorry that you had the displeasure of visiting my hometown 😂

I never even saw a stagg jr at a store in Ca. But i just bought a Stagg jr and GTS at a restaurant that went out of business in my area. Cant believe i have both.

The part at the end when you sprint by had be rolling

Agree on the tropics. First Jefferson’s I’ve really enjoyed.

I’ve had great luck finding bottles in rural Washington, Idaho and Oregon. Unfortunately the prices are the issues.

We agree on the Old Scout Port. My entire bourbon crew loves that bottle. 🙌🏼

I loved the Old Scout Barrel Proof Single Barrel Rye, not a huge fan of rye but loved that one, and also loved port finishes, so when I saw the Port Finish Rye come out, I bought one for my birthday soon after. Definitely a good buy!

I picked up a widow Jane 10 year after seeing you talk about it so much. It’s probably my favorite sipper currently

No way they have benchmark in the glass lmao

Total Wines in Indy had little book 8 for 150 roughly a couple weeks ago. 2 per glass case. Very good if you like rye, but not a $200+ bottle.

What an awesome video! You were right beside a solid bottle in a couple of the stores…. The Timber Craft is amazing! On a different note, the only people I’ve heard say Thomas Moore was good were older non-bourbon drinkers for what it’s worth… 😂 Giveaway…. Review up coming! LETS GOOOOOO!!!

I also have a bottle of the Heart Release... Great pour

Wow, $200 for the Woodford 121. It's like $120 at my store in southern Indiana across from Louisville

Its crazy how many knob creek 18 u see. Great video!! Definitely a fan

In Texas and I paid $34 for that Weller special reserve 1/2 gal

I paid $129 for the new Little Book at Costco 2 months ago.

Have you ever been to The Party Source and the New Riff distillery. Now that's a bourbon shelf

Nice finds brother. Congratulations on that. Good video.

Can you post a video of your bourbon collection? I looked through your previous videos and couldn't believe there wasn't a collection overview

Imma need to see if you're faster in all the videos!

I had a tour at the Pepper distillery and I think she said the decanter was aged 5 years, the 1776 only 3 years. I have a decanter but haven't tried it yet.

Great Episode! Love the Maker's Heart Release, for sure!

That Pepper decanter tastes just like the Old Pepper Bib but with more proof. I’d like to see that decanter at $50 and the Bib $40-35. Great juice for sure but idk if it’s worth the price. Cheers🥃

Shout out from Greenwood!!!

I live in a big city, and you see rare bottles a lot, but they're always full secondary. no rewards programs, no raffles, nothing. so I definitely think it's better in rural areas

I have the Blood Oath2017 P3 with box. My wife bought it for me back in 2017. I still have half the bottle.

Just picked up that baby Jane today because of this video, I knew when I saw it I remembered you saying something about it. Thank you

Dang, would love to grab that Makers BEP in that last store! Cheers

So I am in clearwater florida for the week just landed like 5 hours ago and stopped at two liquor stores....I found penelope rio for 200, 1792 12 year for 150, full proof 60, single barrel 50, plus BiB and SM, they also had a buff trace store pick for 50. Since I am only going to be here a week I got 1792 full proof for 60 out the door!

That Knob Creek BourRye damn havent seen those in Colorado🥃🥃

Another great hunt and great interactions, well done!

i grew up in sumter, and i gotta say...that's the LAST spot i expected to see you in a video lol. impressive scurry speed in that clip at the end btw lol.

That New Riff malted rye is a buy all day at $60. Such a pleasant surprise.

I'll be at Creekville in the morning at 10. Yeah, they open at 10!

The Senator store picks are amazing!

New riff 6 year rye is amazing

I see those Belle Meade Reserve bottles all the time. I've see them in at least 3 stores in the past 2 weeks. I also see the Nelson Brothers bottles. I had 1 store manager tell me they are making both labels instead of discontinuing the Belle Meade.

Great video, and that MMHeart sure is good. Now I gotta post a review tonight.

Definitely pick up World of Whiskey, the 10 year is fantastic.

Cuvee is great. It’s 150 in VA, that was actually a deal. I think only total wine has it slightly cheaper in some states.

Found a Great liquor store on the west side of Houghton lake in michigan on old 27. ALOT of juice that you NEVER see in a smaller town in this state anyway . 😉🥃👍 Cheers

C922 was amazing!,!!!! Missed out bigtime

In SoCal Little Book is sitting on the shelf for $150-160 and Bookers is everywhere. Not sure why people are marking these bottles up.

I’m able to get the HH BIB at my local Sam’s Club for $39! That’s a steal!

The 1792 Full Proof at the last store is wonderful. Have you had it?

I live in Ohio, Crown Royal XR is 54$ here and can be found everywhere in Ohio

Buy the NR 6 year malted rye. I always have one. Until the 8 year came out, it was my favorite NR bottle

New Riff Malted Rye is incredible. It tastes like a better version of the Whopper candy

Did you really like the Maker's Heart Release? I saw some not so good reviews of it online by some heavy hitters. Comments were it's another toasted stave finish like most of their others, wasn't earth shattering for the price, etc. Great video and finds up in Sumpter

Can confirm, Thomas S Moore is worth NOT buying atleast before trying. I got the whole lineup when it first released since I thought it was going to be a limited release Barton finished. Unfortunately the Port finish tastes nothing like the Port 1792

Dude that Senator is the best 6 year mgp rye on the market. It is one of my favorites

I saw a Willet purple top yesterday in small-town America. Also a little book.

I seen you ran into Davin... While you were in Mac's

That's a great price for that kentucky Owl Takumi!

That knob creek bourbon - rye is great. Found it In Tulsa and jumped on it . Shoulda bought two.

Great video. You mentioned a couple sites to check prices…what are they? Im just getting into bourbon and need something to price off of. Thanks!

We missed you last week!

😂 your heading is an age long question well over a decade ago lol

Wish I would’ve known you were coming. Could have shown you around some other small honey holes

That Vatted rye is a buy all day. I wish i could find a backup

What is the difference between the heart release and the maker’s 46 cask strength. isn’t the heart full french oak and isn’t that what 46 is?

The label on the world society bottles or whatever they called is a little too busy for me personally

That New Riff is 👍🏽

That Senator is a smoooooth pick up go get it

I got a MM Heart release yesterday from a Total Wine for 72 bucks!

@15:04 scope that discontinued Calumet 14 year

Great video again!

I traded for a GTS. Its heavenly

So they have Benchmark, Buffalo Trace and Weller behind glass, but BTAC's out on the shelf? Little Book Ch 8 is 🔥...but $213 is a bit steep "New" ECBP A124 😂

Afternoon BH, Is the Whistlepig 12 a good drop ? i see on your vids they are around the $150 USD mark and I passed one up last week on a local trip to Tasmania for around $75 USD.... Should i kick myself ? 🍻

107 for a half gallon weller SR is absolutely laughable. That’s absolutely nuts.

if you want the little book costco has a fantastic price on it. 125 near me

Can we see the personal collection idk if I missed it but haven’t seen your stash yet

You did indeed look faster

Brooo 1300 for George t, it don’t even sell here for 800

Where can I watch your reviews of your buys?

I’m going to the pepper distillery in two weeks. While I’m there I’ll ask

Is that makers heart the best one in your opinion or like #2 behind the cellar age? Have only had regular makers and thought it was okay. Just too low proof for me

Do I look faster 🏃🏽💨😂😂

Lasallae distillery burn down years ago Crown royal blue bag and red bag will always go up

Jack Daniels bottled in bond is a sleeper for like $45

Not Cooper Craft its CopperCraft. I got burned on that at Packies. Copper neck band. 75% corn, 21% wheat, 4% barley. Single brl.

Hey brotha is any of that uncle nearest any good?

Quality was way better

😢

Let’s goooo 😎

Any Early Times BiB down your way? Can’t find it here in NC

Makers mark BEP is wack

Don't get too hyped about Makers Wood Finishing 2024. First - its just Makers 46 cask strength. Second - It's a MASSIVE release. Don't pay over $75 for this bottle or you will be sad when you see it rotting on shelf after a few shipments from the distributor. The Bourbon boom has faded. It's not busted but there is a MASSIVE decline in spending in 2024 over 2023. Just walk into a Total Wine and you might notice the Bourbon Aisles shrinking. Across the 5 stores in my area all of them have sacrificed a bourbon shelf to add other spirits (mostly Tequila). The market is contracting a bit this year and I think that trend continues into 2025 and 2026.

Passed on Kc18 @ retail? Stopped watching
