      We just started getting B523 in the Dallas area these past few weeks, so it could still be awhile. It's difficult to find ECBP regularly in Dallas, I've only seen two bottles at MSRP at Spec's in the last two years.

    Nice store and congrats on the C923 pickup! Also, that JD Twice Barreled Single Malt is one of my top 5 bottles on my shelf. It’s delicious, and may be a good back up if your ticket gets drawn and the Old Fitz is picked already! Cheers!

    Nice store and selection. Sent you a sample of Still Austin Cask Strength, which is my favorite TX whiskey. I received a bottle of Milam & Greene Single Barrel and will be cracking it open tonight. Love Henry McKenna 10 Year BIB. Binny’s in IL had Heaven Hill 7 Year BIB for $39.99 a few weeks ago. Good pickup of EC BP C923…it is a banger. You did not get Eagle Rare for $39??

    It’s funny the more I see you hate on the willet pot still the more I see people liking it. I know I’m not a fan of the bottle though yes it’s a good looker but just impractical for me same with the 13 colonies bottle just not a fan. And Texas whiskey is a hot topic on these sites I’ve seen all brands get ripped and praised out there. Same with American single malts some really like it others not so much. Great store many different brands that we don’t have around my area. Enjoy!!
