Happy belated B-Day. August was my Birthday month too and I got some goodies. Old Grand Dad 114 for $18; ECBP B524 for $75; Springbank 16 year; Bardstown Amrut Collab. The Springbank 16 year was my B-Day Gift. I missed on WT Triumph for $310 from total wine. Passed on Henry McKenna 10 year BiB.

[@JohnK060404]

Yes! Happy Birthday! Your wife is sweet for taking the time to track down that special bottle for you. Enjoy it!!!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey John! Thanks for the happy wishes 🥳. I'm absolutely lucky to have her as my wife 😆. Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@Tylerdurhden]

Wow what a haul, and that last bottle was really special. I was so close to getting a Stagg at Vons, but as soon as I got in the cart online it was sold out. I went back in to add again they completely removed it from the site. Then I tried switching locations up to 50 miles, but sadly all gone. Happy birthday sir and cheers 🥃 wishing you many more.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thank you~ 🥳. Vons website is a mess at times and I got most of my orders canceled so I hope you have better luck than me 😆. Have a wonderful weekend and cheers ~

[@danawollam1805]

Well happy belated birthday David ! ! Your wife is obviously a very special type of person... even though she can see your collection and know how many bottles are there on your bar, but still make the effort to surprise you with such a great gift just to see the joy it brings. This is wonderful. Reward that lady, I feel there aren't many like her! Sorry to say I have been laying off purchasing more bottles for a while. I have over 50 just sitting on my bar that are all definitely delicious but I usually don't have more than three pours a week and will need to drain a few bottles before I have room for more. But watching whiskey tubers like yourself give me just enough of a fix to keep from going through withdrawals until I feel it's time to get back at it. Keep them coming my friend ! D. (Retired in Riverside)

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Dana! Always a good policy to buy after you finish some bottles. Don't be like this guy and just buy 🤣. My wife is special and is somebody I will cherish and love forever. Your wife is also special as she supports all you do as well 😆. We are lucky. Not sure the next time you're down here, but when you are, let me know! Have a cool Monday and cheers ~

[@kennethstrahan5636]

Good Stuff David

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thanks Kenneth! Have a wonderful week and cheers~

[@scottm.5788]

I think the key is to "not travel" to pick up your bourbon. Time is money! Best to stop and shop while you are on the road running your errands. If your already there, why not stick your head in. Buy what you want, buy what you need, skip the rest. Good content!!!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Scott! Wise words that I do not follow 🤣. Thanks for the awesome comment and have a wonderful evening! Cheers ~

[@thomasgallagher1945]

I'm so jealous of the cheap Stagg that you get on the west coast! 24A typically goes for $199 - $299 here in north New Jersey. I felt fortunate when I stumbled upon 1 bottle at $179. Happy belated birthday David!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Thomas! I do a lot of hunting to find these staggs 🤣. The time and money I spend to get these probably make it worse than secondary 🤪. Have a fantastic week and cheers ~

[@stymiesnerdly771]

Wow, your wife certainly set the bar high for birthday gifts! Congratulations! 🎉 Great score on the Stagg as well. 👍

[@WhiskeyBank]

I know! Now what do I get her for her birthday?? I'm in trouble already 🤣. Stagg is probably the best buy I had this month when you consider the price. What was your haul like in August? Thanks again for all your support and cheers ~

[@ClarenceH-d1k]

Happy Birthday! Another great video. HH18 is an outstanding pour---was able to try it at the Ballard Cut in Seattle in June. Buffalo trace seemed to drop late in August and I found an EH Taylor Single Barrel and a W107 but missed the Stagg24A. Cheers!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Nice haul yourself! I'm very lucky to have a wife who supports this horrible hobby 😆. Have a fantastic week and cheers ~

[@TheBloody81]

Happy Belated Birthday David and what a gift! When I was training by the Long Beach area I stopped by the Corked Stearns and got the Russell's Reserve 9 yr pick. I only go there if I'm in the area and hate the traffic. I got lucky to buy Bourbon Hunter's Cedar Ridge barrel pick. For some reason just haven't been into buying much unless I really want it. Great content as usual and Cheers! 🤙

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Jesus! How did you like the Cider Ridge pick? I only been there once and hope to go there more often but so far 😪. Have a wonderful weekend and cheers ~

[@MetaPrometheus]

Happy belated birthday! Missing out on that JD SBBP Rye for $40, yikes! That's definitely a major major deal! One of my buddies was able to get the Bomberger's and Shenk's, he hasn't opened them yet. He was at my place last night to try some Old Forester stuff and the Stagg 22A I was able to get a while ago. The 22A was pretty hot upfront with a lot of cinnamon on the finish. A little bit of water helped immensely, turned into a sweet cherry pie that has a buttery flaky crust! If it tastes that good on first opening I can only imagine what some airing out time will do for it! I filled a boston round of it for him to take home for his infinity bottle! That HH 18 was certainly very awesome of your wife! I guess it doesn't matter if she paid MSRP or the $500, she bought it for you!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thanks a ton for the birthday wishes 🎉! Stagg 22A is a good one and probably most people's favorite batch since 16 and it'll even be better the next time you have it 😆. Wife really did something special, now the pressure is on me next year 🤣. Have a wonderful Sunday and cheers~

[@Urban-Explorer365]

Happy Belated Birthday! What a great and thoughtful gift!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thanks a ton! It was a wonderful gift and one I won't forget for a long time 😆. Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@MichaelBortner-qk4zl]

Great video, I paid about double for my 24A ($150 OTD) but only $136 OTD for Bomberger’s. I have passed on the HH grain to glass bottles, too $$$$ in my opinion for what get and most of the time priced way above SRP. Cheers 🥃 David

[@WhiskeyBank]

Great price on the Bombergers and also probably a good pass on the HH G2G. I'm just a FOMO guy and I also need to do reviews or compare it to others so I use that as an excuse 🤣. Have a wonderful week and cheers ~

[@Whiskey324]

Great haul! I didn’t buy many bottles but scored 2 RR15’s

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Paul! That's probably better than my haul~ 😆 Have a wonderful week and cheers ~

[@Atr0nCr0ss]

Happy birthday! Glad you got those bottles for your bday month.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thanks a million 🥳 the gift is something I'll cherish for a while 😆. Have a wonderful weekend and cheers ~

[@WestCoastWhiskeyDude]

Nice haul! I got 2 bottles of Makers Mark The Heart, a bottle of Weller 12, and an EH single barrel for my Dad. I got myself a Mitchers 10 year Bourbon finally, Buffalo Trace TW store pick, JD Barrel Proof SB Rye, and 2-Weller 107's.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Yo~~ so jealous of that michters 10 year bourbon as I've been looking for that for the last 4 years with no luck 😅. Once you have a pour, let me know how you like it! Have a fantastic week and cheers ~

[@RJR2222]

Always appreciate your haul/pass/miss out videos. Love the KC Bourye. Your wife is a wise woman. She didn’t just give you a fantastic whiskey. She gave you a gift that will always remind you how lucky you are to have her. Enjoy

[@WhiskeyBank]

I'm tremendously lucky to have a wife that supports this horrible hobby 🤣 and I'm absolutely lucky to have her. I'll do my best to provide fun content as much as possible 😆. Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@jimhamilton331]

I got a Woodford LE 2024 cask strength 121.2 for $105 @ Total Wine on Friday!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Jim! That's a great price for that bottle! 🥳. Once you have a pour, let me know how you like it! Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@tranmd80]

Just picked up the pair Shenks/Bombergers 2024 (SRP) hours ago. I went to FL for vacation and saw some 137 proof JDSBS Rye, so had to grab 2 since that's the highest proof I'm gonna see closest to Hazmat. Couple of bottles of Crittenden (out of Mississippi), do you have any of their bottle?

[@WhiskeyBank]

Those are some fantastic pickups, especially those high proof JD Barrel Proof ryes~ I do not have any Crittenden as they are available here in Southern California but I'll keep an eye out for them as I heard good things 😆. Have a wonderful Sunday and cheers ~

[@jimbird1985]

Happy birthday again! Even though you missed a lot of bottles I think you can out on top in the end. What a gift from the wife. You better treat her well for her birthday, lol

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Jim! Thanks for the birthday wishes and cheers my friend!

[@jeffkastl1290]

Wow! The Heaven Hill 18! That's awesome David. Great haul. And a Stagg for under $100 is incredible to me. I've only purchased 2 Staggs because the store cut the price down to $100. Normally around me they are between $200-300.😢 Cheers David 🥃

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Jeff! It was a successful month, especially due to my lovely wife 🥳. Staggs under $100 is rare here as well and I got lucky 😆. Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@ScottW4631]

Very enjoyable video. In August I Picked up case of Stagg 24A for $56 each at Walmart, Knob Creek Bourye for $37 at Sam’s club. Shenks at $110 at Total Wine. Missed Bombergers. Very thoughtful wife. I am just happy that my wife doesn’t complain too much about my whiskey buying.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Scott! Great haul and prices as well! That's all you can ask for is a wife that supports this horrible hobby 😆. Let's count our blessings 🙌. Have a wonderful weekend and cheers ~

[@bryancook4553]

Happy belated birthday! This is another excellent video. Kudos to your wife… a very touching gesture. My haul: EHT SiB, 1792 SiB, and Eagle Rare. Passed on: RR15, couldn’t pull the trigger with that $$. I'm still new to the whiskey game and slowly building my inventory. BTW: Two weeks ago, I was behind a dude who bought a Weller Millennium for $8K. Yikes.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Bryan! Thank you for the birthday wishes 🙏. That's a great haul and I understand the RR15 as the price is a bit high and with all you got, it's probably not worth getting 😆. Let me know which one was your favorite once you have a pour from each! Thank you so much for your view and comment! Greatly appreciate it and cheers~

[@Bergkampgunner]

I was at a grand opening drop where the store had a Weller Millenium at MSRP. They put it by the register thinking it was going to be the first bottle sold. I was there for an hour and everyone just laughed at it. I bet it’s still there 😂

[@WhiskeyBank]

Yeah, Weller millennium seemed like the ultimate tater test. Hopefully the trend continues where it just sits on the shelf 😆. Have a wonderful week and cheers ~

[@nickp5511]

Happy Birthday! Cool gift from your wife! I have the HH 17yr and it’s awesome! You picked up some great bottles! I snagged a Weller CYPB at Costco for 48.00 a couple of days ago. My other recents purchases: Smoke Eye Hill regular Smoke Eye Hill C S Roseville Union CS Eagle Rare pick Baby Jane RD 1 maple finished Next Friday from my store owner friend I’m getting Booker’s 2024-02, 2024-03, and Booker’s Reserve:) I’m looking forward to you reviewing the HH 18yr soon! Cheers!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Wow Nick! Your hauls have been amazing lately! Once you get the bookers reserve, let me know how you like it! Thank you for the birthday wishes and cheers ~

[@TheWithdrawl]

These types of videos are great!! They are so relatable!!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thanks a ton for your awesome comment 😀. Have a wonderful weekend and cheers ~

[@jonathansantana6239]

I had a pour of the Gatsby 2024 and I found it super oaky. It was ok but I wouldn't pay 250 either. The Path not Taken was a tough call, it's a great whiskey that I didn't expect to still be on shelves. I feel like they made more bottles than usual. If traffic in Cali is anything like traffic in NY,I understand, lol. I might be getting a Celler Age,if I do you get a sample Dave. Dude your wife is awesome! I would have def took that over a ps5 I got couple years ago. Gr8 video,cheers

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Jonathan! PS5 might last longer than a HH18, especially with the pace I drink 🤣. It seems every new whiskey is a tough call due to the price increases. Hopefully the trend goes away. It would be awesome if you got the new cellar aged, I heard it's older than last years one 😉. And traffic here is not like NYC... but still a nightmare 😢. Have a cool Monday and cheers ~

[@whiskeyblenderfraley4235]

Hi David, happy belated birthday! I live just north of you in the Bay Area, so I totally know what you mean about how frustrating it is when K&L does those midnight drops. The Makers Mark Cellar Aged '24 release was one I was really hoping to land this year. I'm not sure who else in CA carries it.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Yeah, it seems Bros Liquor is the only other one I have seen. Oh well. Maybe next year 😆. Thank you so much for your view and comment! Greatly appreciate it and cheers~

[@whiskeyblenderfraley4235]

@@WhiskeyBank Thanks for the tip on Bros Liquor! I'll give that one a try. Cheers! 🤩🥃

[@dktopgun1571]

I just got a bottle of Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Bourbon only. I should have bought that 3 bottle set.

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hello Mr. Kim! Honestly, it is a pretty set but the whiskey inside isn't getting the best reviews so I'm sure you'll be able to find it again soon 😆. Have a cool Monday and cheers~

[@dneuens]

Luckily I live in Long Beach and saw that Corked on Stearns Bomberger's for $150. Raced over there, probably around 15 minutes away and grabbed the last one. BTW, they still have that 4R store pick and you can order it online either for pickup or shipping. Just saying if you're ever in the area.

[@WhiskeyBank]

I was not aware they have it online! Maybe it's time for me to take a trip to long Beach on a weekend morning 😆. Nice pick up on the bombergers! Anything else exciting you got in August? Have a fantastic weekend and cheers ~

[@dneuens]

@@WhiskeyBank Finds: Stagg 24A, 23A, and 18. 1792 Sweet Wheat, John J Bowman pick from Cypress Craft, EHT Single Barrel. Trades for Michter's 10 Rye, Rock Hill Farms, Stagg 22B, Blue Spot, 1792 12, EHT Barrel Proof 12, JD Twice Barreled Rye. I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting. Recently traded for a Magnus Cigar Blend batch 68, and have a beat on a Costco Russell's 15 drop soon that should hopefully work out.

I really enjoy these videos. Curious to hear your take on the KC Bourbon x Rye. Also, congrats on the HH18!

[@WhiskeyBank]

I'm very curious on the knob creek bourbon x rye as well 😆. Have a fantastic week and cheers ~

[@pizzawarlord9232]

Happy Birthday fellow Leo 🎉 Loved Chapter 7 so much and heard such good things about the Little Book Chapter 8 that I bought 2 ( at $150 each). Passed on the 3 HH Grains to Glass last month. Just seemed overpriced and from reviews I was right. Local bar had them and the rye was decent but not worth the 99.99. Hopefully will find that KC bottle! Only other 2 same bottle buy last month was the Maker’s Mark Heart and JD SiB BP Rye. Haven’t seen a Stagg in 2 or 3 months. What an awesome wife to get you the HH18 gift!

[@WhiskeyBank]

Thank you sir~ 🥳 did you have a pour of that chapter 8? Did you like it? Have a wonderful week and cheers ~

[@pizzawarlord9232]

@@WhiskeyBank not yet. Hope to try it at a bar nearby. I am packing up my selection for long term safe keeping in a controlled storage. Spending 9 months traveling overseas next year and getting everything here ready for the journey. So no new bottle cracks and parafilming about 160 open bottles.

August was pretty good got a backbone 10 pick, bombergers, barrel dovetail & 32 half off, michters barrel strength rye, knob creek 14 yr 11 m 20 days sib, multiple driftless glen 5 yr sib for 20 each, a frey ranch bourbon & rye sib, and a stagg 24a. Not bad.

Hey Robert! There are a ton of people who drink here that doesn't drink bourbons (wine, vodka, tequila, beer, etc.) So we get a ton of bourbon and allocated bottles as well. Remember, distribution controls where things go, not the distillery and they sell a lot stuff than just whiskey. Hope this helps! Have a wonderful week and cheers ~

[@ronaldellison1847]

I pass on anything over 60 bucks, if buffalo trace can do it every body can

[@WhiskeyBank]

Hey Ronald! Not sure if that's true, Buffalo trace has the infrastructure and the distribution relationships to mass produce to be able to sell at lower prices to make money. Not too many distilleries have that. But hopefully the ones that do, will lower the prices 🤞. Have a wonderful week and cheers ~
