had a shot of Trader Joe's bourbon in my travels tonight at a friend's house. Neither of us ever heard of it, but he said he snagged it for 16 clams. Can't believe it but it was smooth as silk, required no water or ice.

Meanwhile, I'm the original Elmer tout and haven't been able to buy a bottle in ages! Even emailed the web site asking where in MA it can be found but no answer as yet. I've received too many gifts and blessings this year to accept a RAOK but would like to make any fair trade or cash for a bottle or 3 iff'n Elmer's elves don't get back to me...I will post in a couple of more days before I give up on them, but if you have easy access, let me know what you'd want to do the deal.

For years I paid $24 for Elmer. Then after he died one shpo near me was able to get 2 bottles and sold them to me for 30. One lucky cbidder got one of them, don't remember who. That was close to a year ago, maybe 6 months, dry ever since.

This morning I heard back from the distillery. She asked me to check off the towns near me from a list she provided and said she'd get back to me...but I have a feeling I know almost every spot she means and the search will fail. But worth a shot. I'll post after her reply.

I've only been to one place that had plenty of bottles in stock and it was an shpo in downtown Bardstown.

I forgot to mention Wathen’s Single-Barrel Bourbon. Good stuff if you can find it.

Frank, actually all Weller is young Pappy at least that is what the master distiller at Buffalo Trace told me.
