A chain may charge $40 when a mom and pop may charge $50. Support your local liquor store.<br /><br />And I visited Bourbonr.com as my bottle is laser coded, but I could not make sense of the clumsily designed website, or maybe I'm clumsy.<br /><br />I suspect all ETL bottled himself are long gone, given you can hardly find a bottle of ETL at all anymore.

It's too bad to see ETL going for $50 instead of its $30 from recent years, more I'm more surprised that you were told that Elmer himself picked the barrels ... unless it was an old bottle back from when Elmer (1) was alive and (2) while he still helped select some of the barrels. If your bottle has a laser code, Bourbonr.com has published how to decipher it, and you will be able to tell when it was bottled.

The retailer is a mom and pop, two locations, and had several more bottles. I hadn't seen a bottle in many years so it was a no brainer. When I asked, the reps said it was bottled by Elmer himself, meaning he picked the barrels, but I'd be surprised about that because I remember hearing the brand would continue replicating his flavor profile using past bottling's as reference. However, the back label does read "this is his own private selection" so maybe he did? Lastly, this bourbon is super smooth for 90 proof, but not very robust or what I call full flavor. A little to thin or lite in flavor for a second purchase, but I'm happy to have found one nonetheless.
