Best of luck to the Elevated Spirits owner; seems like a great guy trying to get by in "the game." Better selection than a lot of stores I've been to.

[@Brewzle]

I had a good time hanging out with him for a while. This is definitely the type of store I like to support.

[@melaninatedking2982]

@@Brewzle you pronounced it correctly it’s WIN, Arkansas just spelled different

[@chrismiller755]

I agree

[@casey10607]

Unfortunately most of the town was destroyed in a tornado a few days ago. Don’t know if his store survived

[@seandwyer5573]

No shit?

[@A_Victim]

I liked the atmosphere of that second store. The owner speaking with you and I woulda grabbed up a bottle of that Rock Town Cask Strength too. Cheers

[@drrobert8678]

I have a bit of a heavy heart watching this after seeing Wynne devastated by the tornado Thursday. They are good people. Words can't describe what they must be going through.

[@Brewzle]

Yeah, that sucks

True 😂😢

Man I dont know a damn thing about bourbon, and I’m still here watching this video. Just a testament to your charisma man, you got a new sub here 👍

Same Old Moses is from WanderFolk Distillery in Guthrie, OK. I’m going to tour their distillery next weekend. Looking forward to trying that line out. 5:28

He's right, Brewzle

[@Gabe94dotcom]

True 😂😮

[@michaelkassner2993]

The owner of the 2nd store seemed like a decent and honest guy who knows his thing about liquor/alcohol who's trying to make a living using his taste and knowledge. Wish him good luck, especially in AK. I wish I could support so far away.

[@m-roddr.funtimes3144]

Holy crap!- Porter’s for the win!! NICE find! I agree on the leaving some for the next hunter.

[@dannywinget]

Oh my goodness on the Weller!!!!

[@Brewzle]

It was a good score

[@kilercrab3213]

The redemption is super under rated man. Love their rye and bourbon

[@Brewzle]

Should have bought it

[@RedShift76]

For sure. And now it's long gone. 10 year cask strength MGP rye for under $100.

[@Gabe94dotcom]

True 😅😊

[@jashsu]

That redemption rye is the best thing you've seen this entire trip.

[@Brewzle]

I feel like I missed out

[@waddell7354]

Iirc, redemption is an MGP

[@anthonylalicata8434]

Old Ezra 7 was the biggest miss IMO. I have had both and while I love MGP juice the Ezra7 is just flat out better. Obviously this is just my opinion, but if you havent tried the Old Ezra 7 I would try and get ur hands on it.

[@nitronamous]

I can say this...I bourbon hunt regularly in Maryland. As of late its been shit until this week. 2 days in a row now I found Blanton's on the shelf for $75 and $85! I did spring for both since I have never seen any Blanton's just sitting on the shelf much less for just above MSRP. I think the new distribution is getting things back in order for larger liquor stores that sell a lot of select product and now getting what they deserve! Also able to get Blade and Bow, Baby Saz, Buffalo Trace, and an Old Elk Wheated for $50! Been a good week!

[@Brewzle]

Good score!

[@martinjames6148]

These hunting videos are so great. Some of your interactions with the store owners are Gold, really cool to see. Thank you for the content

[@scootergants]

Loved the owner who pulled all the bottles from the back 👏🏽🙏🏽

[@imnotincontrolitsathrowawa3646]

All throughout Arkansas we have amazing liquor store owners and bartenders. The bartenders led me to my favorite liquor store. Colonial!! Whiskey to the ceiling!!

[@TyillestTV2]

I gotta say the Indian gentleman at that store was awesome and the second guy was really cool too. I’d definitely buy from them.

[@therepairsloth]

Nothing like a good bourbon hunt video on a Friday morning. Hope you're safe tonight, as the weather rolls into your state.

perfect timing to watch on my 30 min break! im not a bourbon drinker but every time i’m in a liquor i take a few minutes to check out their selections

[@SomeoneElsesStory]

I’m a Texas boy but I love me some small town Arkansas. Beautiful part of the country.

[@JordanBlythe]

That Knob Creek single is just so good. I've gone through three bottles of it and given two as gifts. Top notch stuff.

[@1961HORNET]

Thanks!

[@Burley_Bert]

I live in a really rural area, my local liquor store of choice is oddly low priced ( no i'm not gonna tell you where it is) The owner has known me since i was going to Elementary school his name is Singh and you're 100% right it's all about making a relationship with the shop owners, he's gotten me quite a few very special allocations for msrp over the years and now i can ask him for anything and it eventually shows up. Loyalty pays off!

[@jeffreyamernick9810]

I hope all are safe in Wynne Arkansas. I never heard of the place until this video, and now the horrible tornado. Love to the people there.

[@jimidrammer4187]

A lot of allocated stuff at Crossroads Spirits in Benton AR if you are going thru Little Rock. Also several stores in Hot Springs are gems.

[@MileHighGrowler]

As a Colorado resident I've been wondering about the Axe and Oak. It's distilled here, aged only 3 years, but Colorado is rough on aging because of the major weather swings during the year and dry air, so I see a lot of younger whiskeys produced locally. Maybe I'll grab a bottle and see!

[@Fetner58]

Saw a case of the knob creek single barrel at the frisky whiskey in West Point ga

[@stuartroberts5629]

I had a bottle of Knob Creek 9 single barrel engraved right off the line at the Beam distillery. I've become very fond of the taste.

[@noeverduzco7816]

Nice haul! The Shaker's along 65 highway that you passed is not bad but my gem to go to is always Oscar's Liquor Store in North Little Rock, AR. Trust me when I tell you that the store almost looks abandoned from the outside but the staff is great and hidden gems are often found here (in case you ever travel up that way again) for a fantastic price (ex. Weller Reserve 750ml for $19.99). Happy hunting!

People in Arkansas cross the river into Memphis to get anything harder to find. Alot of our stores do lotteries, points systems, or good ole boy systems.

Top Shelf Liquors in Berkeley Springs WV has Kentucky Owl Products for around 150!

I'm a Distiller at Rock Town Distillery and personally dumped that bottle you bought. I'm glad to see you took it home. Excited to see what you think of it. We recently dumped an 80 month old single barrel cask strength, #520, that is amazing. All distilled in in Arkansas with Arkansas grown grain and aged in Little Rock.

[@imnotincontrolitsathrowawa3646]

I’m so happy y’all got more palatable

[@03FR500]

@@imnotincontrolitsathrowawa3646 Some of out stuff is certainly not for everyone. It's hard for us to put out long aged whiskey. The demand is high and out production ability can barely keep up.

Old Charter used to actually be 8 years old. They also had a Charter 10, and a special Charter 12, but Buffalo Trace Distillery, where its made, turned Buffalo Trace into their top of the line mass produced, Charter 8 (no longer 8 years old) the mid line, and Ancient Age is the bargin whiskey.

[@mewebb]

Yeah, you can get home wreckers of Old Charter 8 for about 22 bucks where I'm from.

Next time your in Arkansas stop in bentonville there's alot of corporate offices and most of the liquor stores get allocated bottles!

Just started watching these and man, loved that you left those other Weller bottles for other folks to get a good deal.

There is a small out of the way store between two major cities that I live near that always has Buffalo Trace

[@jdavidteem]

this was fun. In that area there is a liquor store on the county line to Jonesboro. Only place I ever saw a boxed bourbon. Weird little gimmick that I should have picked up.

[@TeamIFDVideos]

Passing on the Mckenna 10 year nooooo! I love it.

[@clevershades]

I live in a small town in Australia and I can get Buffalo trace from 3 out of 4 of the liquor stores near me. But I think part of that is because the difference in laws between our countries, because Buffalo Trace is only 40% here and we drink a lot of beer, wine and rum

[@98areece]

My wife and I just finished watching this when we got a weather channel notification that Wynne had bees destroyed by a tornado. Insane to hear of a town of 8K people and 20 minutes later find out it’s destroyed

[@Brewzle]

Yeah, sucks for that awesome town

[@iamgeek246]

My dad and granddad drank old charter regularly years ago when it was still age stated. Haven’t had it in years though.

[@Brewzle]

I don’t think it’s as good

[@BenNorthrup]

I'm from Kentucky but the company I work for is based out of Little Rock. Last time I visited we actually all grabbed drinks at the Rock Town distillery. They had some very decent cocktails especially based on the size of the city. Funny to see them in this video at the first location! You'll have to tell us what you think of their cask strength bourbon. Haven't had it neat, but it had a kinda-better-than-craft taste in the whiskey sour they made me with it!

[@BenNorthrup]

Also from one bourbon guy to the next, I liked and subbed. Well deserved!

ECBPA123 is solid. AA Preferred is just brown neutral grain spirits, it's terrible. The Buzzard roost bottles are fire though. Brands like Buzzard roost, Penelope and Pinhook are doing amazing things with MGP juice.

[@shaycostigan2091]

Great job. Enjoy going on your journey with you and learning about different bourbons. I just started getting into bourbon. I have found a couple of good ones already, but I have been trying to find a bottle of Blanton's. I live in Michigan. I can't believe how hard it is to buy a bottle. People know what day stores get their shipments, and they line up and follow delivery trucks around I believe they are just trying to sell them and make money which suck because people like me just want to try it but can't find it 😢 maybe some day I will get lucky

[@peterg6953]

Well they had a store pick of Blue Note for 45. So glad i picked that up , because it is one of his favorites now. Just not found in Ohio.

Old Charter is good only 80 proof but pretty good. It's actually a young Eagle Rare that they pull early and cut to lower the proof and sell more bottles. I buy one every time I see it on the shelf.

I really enjoy your banter with the store personnel. Also, after living in Colorado Springs, I can say that Axe and Oak is a good bourbon. Not sure of their technique, but it is a good taste and they have a cool bar in town and do a mean smoked old fashioned.
