I've got the same issue. That's okay though I wasn't an active participant until TR2 was released.

Is there a rough idea on price point? But would probably be interested in 2-3
Also I do love me a wheated bourbon. But I would down for w/e.

These have been around $100 - $110 a bottle. For reference, most releases from the Whiskey Blendery are $125 a bottle and we're getting a better price because we've been able to sell out a whole barrel.

We've done a Wheat whiskey, finished bourbon and a blend. So a rye or a wheated bourbon would be a good next chapter in the series. Ultimately, it depends on what's ready when we go to pick barrels and let the whiskey show us which is the best pour at that moment.

This is exactly how my parents shop at Costco! No shopping list - they let the store show them what they need when they get there!

Hell, I went in for dog food this last weekend and left with a few bottles of Rye

I stopped in to the Whiskey Blendery today. In the next couple of weeks they'll be getting in samples from barrels that are warehoused in Indiana and Kentucky. These will make up their barrel selection for the rest of the summer.

We started this project with a 95/5 wheat whiskey, then went to a high rye bourbon finished in a buff turkey cask, and then a custom blended whiskey. To keep bringing something different, I asked them to look for a 95/5 rye whiskey as well as a wheated bourbon. There may be also an option to go with something a bit older.

Our barrels thus far have been 8 - 9 year and we might be able to get something 10 - 12 years old. This is a great age range for whiskey when you balance cost and quality. 13+ years are personally my favorites. I don't mind the oak and funk of old whiskey and have some in my collection that are as old as 33 years. But once you get into the teens and olders, bottle price goes up really fast. For example, Russell's 13 is a $200 MSRP bottle, but retails for $350+ and many 15 year bottles are regularly $400 - $500.

So if we do end up picking a 10 - 12 year bottle, it may push the bottle price up from where we've been at with the past releases. I don't think it would be a big jump in price, and believe a few extra dollars would be well spent for the added age.

I'm looking to get the pick finalized in early September so I can have bottles in hand to bring to Moab for those who order that will be joining us for the meet.
