Blanton’s on the shelf

$59 at Jewel / Osco in Elmhurst, IL. Haven’t seen Blanton’s at retail in 4 years.

Just picked up the only two bottles in a liquor store here. They just put them on the shelf. Talk about being in the right place at the right time.

Nabbed myself a bottle a little while back. Always a treat.

I was given a bottle a while back, I had no idea it was so hard to come by.

I can still find it readily here. Affording it is another story.

Not exactly cheap in and around my neck of the woods, either (~CDN$65 for the Special Reserve, which I avoid owing to its meager 40%ABV bottling strength, and ~CDN$70 for the Original, which I find to be a superior product).
