Last I spoke with CE he had a bottle in stock. What price range you looking for? Not sure if he does now but I can check. UpDate: He had 3 bottles of the 12 year was going for $450 a bottle but as I guessed in a weeks time all gone. Sorry brother.

I heard in the 25yr was going for $15k/bottle in some locations? Seems a bit excessive over true retail and can't be that damn good to pay out for it.

I suppose it depends on how well you like your buddy.

we have both had it, and it was intense. enough to the point where we both said its not worth it. this was at 180 or something a pour (always make nice with your bartenders). i think hes rather i give him a k towards his house then drop 15k on a bottle with a msrp under 300.

this is a "if it happens, it happens type of thing"

I was at my local shpo this weekend playing some pool, waiting for my turn at the table, I was looking through some old cigar boxes they had for sale and found a Pappy van Winkle cigar box.
I don't know anything about them, just thought I'd mention it for those who didn't know.........I gotta admit, I kinda LoL(really frank) because in my mind I saw Ewok van Winkle

Weller 12YO is the same bourbon but aged for a shorter time. I would also look at Wathen's Bourbon. I'd also look at some of the Old Forester offerings. Their Birthday Bourbons are every bit as good or better than PVW's bourbons. YMMV 🌫

Weller Antique is not bad either and recommend the 1920 Prohibition over the Birthday Bourbon.
