No - the Commonwealth of PA owns and runs all our liquor stores. On top of that, PA is not allowed to sell beer in supermarkets or convenience stores, you must go to a beer outlet (although...that appears to be changing in the next couple months here).

Glenlivet 15. Drank 10, 12 founders reserve and this is best by far Depends what you prefer, I like it because I can taste the oak but not as peaty as many other. Very refined. Way above macallans.
Bulleit bourbon for mixed drinks and over ice.

Taquilla - Don Julio 1942 is best but pricy tres generaciones anejo is great tasting and great value.

M_Six · 08-13-2016, 09:37 PM

Since I usually just buy one bottle of Aberlour at a time and I buy from two different stores, today is the first time I realized there are two versions of Aberlour 12. Not sure why I didn't notice this before.

The Non-Chill Filter (NCF) on the left is $10/btl more than the Double Cask on the right.

Old fashioned shouldn't be made with either of those.

Most chain markets have bitters.

Now a whiskey sour with basil Hayden's. That's where it's at.

UncleWede · 08-14-2016, 03:01 AM

I got a bottle of Basil for my bday a few weeks ago

ShopVac · 08-14-2016, 09:02 AM

So...hit another state store and confirmed that in PA, they do not carry Plantation. I can order it...but would need to buy a whole case.

I like rum...don't think I'm buying 6 bottles.

Guess I'll need to look around in my travels at work.

Any while I have a couple brandy's on the bar...I didn't have any Cognac. Until now.

TXSTYLE · 08-15-2016, 08:02 PM

If you travel or don't mind going further out than your local store, I'd definitely check around. Keep in mind that I have listed very nice options for excellent Rums in this thread.
