For $16, pick it up and try it!Something I've never had is Very Old Barton. I see it everywhere in TN for $16 a handle. Is it any good at all?

I've heard the NC ABC system has a strained relationship with BT or whatever distributor they get BT products from. Don't know if that's true, but it's crazy that Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare have become "allocated" bottles in NC when you can walk in to stores in other states and buy as many as you want.Yeah I don't know if it's a case of the three-tiered distribution system, that NC (I believe still?) has government run liquor stores, a combination, or just the local market. Buffalo Trace recently went up $2, but for the last 4 years at least it's been around $25 from the distributor.
Like I said earlier, I've seen a wide price range on BT and Eagle out on shelves but haven't seen one lower than $49 for BT. Saw $40 for Eagle (although it's mostly $50-75). BT is just all over the place...seen it up to $90-100 from $49. I'm sure if you wandered into the right random corner store you could find it for like $45 or so, but I'd doubt it's anywhere for less than that in the state.
This is the only way. Not sure why I've been holding off.For $16, pick it up and try it!
It gets a lot of love on the FB pages I'm on but I haven't had any since I emptied my bottle of VOB BiB that they no longer produce.Something I've never had is Very Old Barton. I see it everywhere in TN for $16 a handle. Is it any good at all?
