Ahh didn't realize you were Baltimore based... it was $250. The Wolff Foreman group does do a solid job on food but yeah that was a little pricey. One bottle that is even more rare is the Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye. I've seen one bottle of it in my life. But apparently some comes out every year. I heard that Maryland got about 50 bottles.

Rebel Yell is a wheated bourbon. From what I understand, the Trader Joes Bourbon comes out of the 1792 Ridgemont Distillery- so maybe try VEry Old Barton?
