I wonder what the odds are? I’d love to be able to buy one of these.

I was selected for the 2019 lottery for the 12 year.

Pretty cool experience, and even though I have other bourbon I like more (and is cheaper) it was great to pull it out for special occasions and share with others.

I'd get Angles envy (or the rye) or eagle rare (hard to find but able to get in state stores). Or even go for a basil Hayden's.

Bulleit 10 year is also a good option for less than half the price.

Also when I won the lottery it cost an addition ~$20 in shipping, even to my local store.

That's some bullshit. Assuming it is coming from their warehouse already, they could ship it along with all the other booze they're sending to your store. WTF.

I think so, This is also not the only one I've seen, but I don't pay super close attention.
