Do you know What the retail was on the Willet 8? I got an offer for one at close to 1k but that had to be marked up?
Julian, I do remember that ranking process and will definitely leave the Handy off next year, since I’m on my way to pick up my win right now. The 11 hour round trip will make every sip that much more special and I’ll have a story or two hopefully when I pour it for friends…
Just got the e-mail results for the Spring Priority Access Lottery drawing for April and got shut out this one as well. Before it seemed like getting a Blanton’s was the consolation prize and almost guaranteed as I’d at least get that if not any of the other bottles. But back to back shutouts, must be getting harder or just bad luck.
I scored a Blanton’s (and I said I wasn’t going to pick a Blanton’s this time…). Guess that’s better than being shut out - don’t know that I would get a chance to pick one up otherwise. Cheers!
I have been shut out of the last two lotteries. I know many others who also were shut out or were offered Blanton’s. I think it is a SHAM intended to keep their best customers buying…
Interesting that they published the offering for every state this time. In NV the offer was Blantons, EHT BP, Four Roses LE/SB, Old Fitz 11, Parkers Hert. 11 and Weller 12. Wish we had OF Birthday on our list. Cheers!
It’s probably only a couple of each (people who didn’t pick up during the previous raffles), and a couple cases of blantons. Makes it look like there are good options.
haha same here. For Spring offering, I didn’t get anything during the draw, but then in June, I got a random email saying that they have a Blanton’s for me if I wanted it. Maybe not everyone picked theirs up so there were some leftovers.
