Whiskey Thief 2025

 

[2K6TBSS]

I'm in again!

 

[BlindedByScience]

Im in, 3 or maybe 4 bottles depending on final cost.

 

[lucasbuck]

In for 2-3 bottles.

 

[cabaiguan juan]

I’m in. 2 for sure. Maybe 3.

 

[DomnioMaestro]

If pricing is similar to last time, I'm in for 4. Possibly more once I talk to those that enjoyed the ones I got the last time.

 

[whopper]

I’m out this time. Still have 1 3/4 bottles left from last time.

 

[MX]

I am in!!!

 

[2K6TBSS]

We need to make sure @AVB is included in this one!

Below are some key details from prior posts and messages from last year, although perhaps their prices have gone up.

They have a variety of wheated, Rye and traditional bourbons.
The minimum order was 100 bottles, although one spreadsheet said it might be as low as 84 bottles. Any idea @Eqwhipped on the 84 vs 100 (also I took a guess that the few you said you were interested in meant 3 bottles in list below, feel free to revise).

$76.32 was last years bottle price, plus shipping (which for one bottle to Massachusetts was amazingly only $11)

$12 per year for barrel strength bourbon per 750ml bottle
$10 per year for 100 proof bourbon per 750ml bottle
$8 per year for 90 proof bourbon per 750ml bottle
$6 per year for 80 proof bourbon per 750ml bottle

Based on replies so far in this thread and old purchase DM:
@CigarStone -- 3 bottles???????
@Eqwhipped -- 3 bottles???????
@behike -- 1 bottle
@DomnioMaestro -- 4 bottles
@Napa_Smokes -- 3-4 bottles
@BlindedByScience -- 3-4 bottles
@MX -- 5 bottles
@2K6TBSS -- 3 bottles
@streetrod -- 1 bottle?
@lucasbuck -- 2-3 bottles

-----
A very rough estimate of 30-34 bottles so far ~33% of the goal

Other prior buyers from the initial purchase based on the one spreadsheet I could find:
@{tpc} , @thinde , @Pugman1943 , @Smart Ash , @Gavin , @Mizicke5273 , @cohibasurfer . @smellysell , @JoeGibs (and your hooch network lol) , @rbbrock , @CBoukal ,@TexasTraveler , @jfields , @bfreebern , @JoeMO , @SKYDIVNEKD any interest in a round 2 purchase?

 

[whopper]

For those of you who did not get in on this the first time, I am not really a big bourbon drinker, but the first go round is great in my opinion. I would recommend giving it a go.

 

[Gavin]

I’d be in for 1 bottle.

Before putting out any more misinfo, let me provide updates as I get them from Hannah.

 

[BlindedByScience]

Kudos to you guys for the awesome shipping wrapper you came up with last time. Genuinely appreciated...bottles landed safe and sound. Very well done..!!

 

[CigarStone]

I intend to speak with Hannah again in the next day or so and will have a few questions for her. As of now, here are a few things to keep in mind.

1. We need to act fast as their tasting schedule is filling up so chime in if you're interested.
2. Six to seven years is about the limit on wheated bourbon, we can tatste a couple older barrels of basic bourbon.
3. The price would be similar to last year if we choose a similar aged barrel (six years)
4. Let me know if you are interested in camping or hotel and organizing a HERF.
5. Last year we did approximately 80 bottles and she said that would be okay again but I'd like to get closer to 100. In committing the number of bottles you want, you can keep in mind that we have had several requests for an extra bottle over the last few months, so err on the side more rather than less.
