When I went in the other day the guy told me it was that price only if you purchased other items, otherwise $199. I walked out immediately lol.

That's crazy. This time there's no exception $99 per bottle.

Canton wine and spirits had Full proof at $99 this past weekend. Didn’t seem to have strings attached on the face but I didn’t inquire much beyond surfacial price of it.

I’ll just say it. It was good….but no where near the hype. I’d take 4 rose’s barrel strength or turkey rare breed without a thought.

I’d pay $99 for a full proof (although that price should be for a store pick) but the Weller 12 at $99 is a bit much for that one. I’d do it if trying to complete the rainbow but not worth it.
Empire in East ATL has a good deal of dusty museum bottles. Last time I wa there the prices quoted for a few bottles was silly.

was there enough full proof that there’s still likely to be some today?

There were only a couple cases of WFP, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it were gone by now. That said, there were 3 12-pack cases of W12, so there’s quite possibly some of that one left.

Thanks. I called over and they said they had some. I’m trying to decide if $99 pre tax is worth the trek. still a solid premium over msrp

Or go to The Grove Wine and Spirits and it’s $79.99 or $64.99 if you buy a 1792 store pick for $39.99. Limit 2 per person.

Update: went today. They put out a few more cases of WFP (non-SP), also around 30 bottles of W12 left

u/paranoia_in_z_major Jul 01 '26

What would it cost to get one each of WFP and W12

1

u/AdZestyclose1171 Jul 01 '26

99 each. Not sure about limits; I just got one W12 since I have a couple WFP at home

Update: was there yesterday evening, saw almost three cases of Weller 12 and about 3 cases of full proof. $99 before tax, no bundle. Worth noting they have a Four roses store pick for $90 and a Ezra Brooks cask strength store pick, forgot the price.
