There's a Total Wine not too far from me , I may be in that area next week. I can check it out for you. If they have it I can ship it to you. How many bottles are you interested in?

If it is under $50/ bottle, I would take three. If not, I'm not interested. Thanks for the effort!

According to their site it's listed at about $26 a bottle.

Nope... It says aged12 years under the W.L. Weller.

Okay. I did an image search and now I know what to look for.  There's one more place by me that has a good selection of the brown stuff.

If you are a resident of Virginia the Virginia ABC stores are holding a lottery for a chance to buy one bottle of the limited supply of Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve 15 Year Bourbon they will be getting.

@Phatchris The Wellers Antiquice bottle is a good buy(you can't even find it in my area). They are way overcharging for the special($30 for a 1.75 here). If you are a fan of bourbon buy the antique and enjoy!

Oh I have and I do whenever I can find it... It's flies off the shelf here.

Glad I could help you out. I enjoyed attending your eggfest. Karma my friend.

Depending on where you are and your travels take you, keep looking. The Antique 107 is also a steller find.   I found 5 bottles on the shelves in mid October in Austin. When I lived in Baltimore/DC, was able to find it in the spring.  Its funny that some stuff I could walk right in an buy on the east coast I can't get near in Texas.

I would like to thank you all for helping me out. Jerry @Grillinois was not only able to find the Weller 12yo, but he met my other nephew and made the handoff very easy and painless. I'm sure my brother and his two boys will enjoy a nice drink together over Christmas dinner. Another example of the Eggcellent Egghead community. Much thanks a gain Jerry!

I was also blessed to receive a rare bottle of single barrel Elmer T Lee from @CoMoBGE. He went so far as to slip in an extremely high quality cigar (My Father bijou). It's nice to share interests with fellow Eggers. I will savor the bourbon and cigar. Of course, the cigar will have to wait until at least next week (-7 high temp Sunday). Thank you very much Jeffery. Cheers!

Grillinois

Pete, I'm glad I was able to help. Thanks again for the unexpected surprise yesterday. Enjoy the Elmer. I lucked out and found a bottle of it last week. Very smooth!

Very nice @pgprescott and a nice of you to send @Grillicious.  Maybe some day we could have a drink and a cigar.

@pgprescott Glad the Elmer T Lee and cigar made it to you safe and sound. I would drink the Lee all the time if I could find it on a regular basis. Hope you enjoy both of them. I usually have a cigar while doing l&s smokes but I don't think one will be smoked Saturday night while doing the brisket I have to do for the lady's family Christmas at 1pm on Sunday. It's suppose to be -20 at 7am Sunday morning.
