No. You talk to the manager of the liquor store and get them to put them aside for you.
Its just like have a call list at the LGS so if an old Sako Vixen or a Pre-64 come in that they call you first.

Locally the distributors have stopped carrying Rittenhouse Rye and that is one I really miss. See if they have Old Forester BIB...outside of scotch, the best whiskey I've ever had (which is no great claim).

About a year or so ago, somebody posted on here about aging cheaper whiskey in fifth sized oak barrels. He said load in a bottle of Jim Beam for about 8 weeks.
Been meaning to do that....

Sil got a new job yesterday and momma returned from a mini vacation. Thought some celebration was in order
T bone steaks vue cliqot (sp? ) champagne and woodford double oak $56
Dayum I'm worried their sprinkling something addictive in woodford. That stuff is good
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

But I sip whiskey to please me, not to live up to some blowhards standards of how to properly serve whiskey. veiled reference to mathman Not at all, it's a general statement about elitist in any endeavour that insist that there is only one proper way to do something whether it be dry fly fishing, stick and string archery, whisky drinking etc. I personally think a whiskey should stand on it's own served neat at room temperature. But if someone prefers a dash of water, ice cube, chilled, or some other way to please their taste buds I'm not about to correct them or belittle them.

mathman: you should write a whiskey, whisky, bourbon Rules Of Engagement primer 
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

I'm 100% with you, but when I'm drinking with good friends I'm gonna bust their balls once in awhile.

The manager of one store told me if he had anything interesting, he would put it in back for me. I've been in his store probably 20 times since then and not once has he said...."Hey....I have something in back for you". And he knows what I'm looking for. I bet there's 100 customers he's told the same thing.

Mathman is finest kind. I have always appreciated him, even though he does not approve of my drinking good Bourbon with a lime and Coke. Picked up fresh bottles of Bookers, Bulleit, FourRoses Small Batch and Larceny today.
