Did I say before that I really like Larceny bourbon? I took a bottle a while back and put some used vanilla beans in it... maybe 3 total beans split in half which had been sitting in my sugar bin for a while to infuse the sugar. Very, very tasty in the Larceny bourbon (which is a great bourbon on its own IMHO).

My most-local ABC store claimed (and I take this with a huge grain of salt) that Buffalo Trace is going to start becoming an "allocated" product, meaning that each store will get only a limited amount of it and thus it will be hard to find.

This was in response to someone asking about Pappy (LOL), and the manager said, "Even Buffalo Trace is about to be a lot more rare on our shelves," and went on to explain the allocation bit.

I find it hard to believe that a minimally-aged, large-distillery, entry-level (if very tasty) bourbon will become so limited that VA ABC stores ration it out.
