Keep in mind - ACE Spirits outta Minneapolis, Minn has a flat rate shipping fee of $10 to Wisconsin.
For what it's worth - the 'Highland Park' Binny's has a plethora of whisk(e)y...I highly recommend anyone to visit that store when visiting Chicago...And btw - if there's a significant other traveling with you - the Northbrook Mall is nearby, and will offer an impressive shopping experience.

@Nozinan OGD 114 is $19, or $20 at a store nearby...Been thinking about picking up a bottle.

@FMichael
If you like high proof bourbon, this one punches well above its price point. I don't drink cheap stuff because "it's good for the price" - I only drink good stuff and this is good stuff.

@FMichael , right on. Ace is pretty good too, but their Midwest shipping is all done through Spee-Dee, which I found to be quite awful the one time I bought from them. Below is a snippet from the complaint I sent to Ace, which to their great credit they resolved splendidly.
"Spee-Dee makes no effort to (a) find the right day or time to arrive, (b) leave a note explaining what's going on, or (c) offer a "pick it up yourself from our location" option. This was my first experience with both Ace and Spee-Dee, and I can't say I'm too thrilled. I've ordered whisky from Binny's and K&L numerous times and while none of their shipping services have ever done (a), the most-welcome (b) and (c) are a given."

@FMichael I don't think you'll be disappointed with that bottle and I wouldn't be surprised if you went back for 2 more before they are gone or the price goes up.

I just learned of this on the (excellent) My Annoying Opinions blog. Binny's is shipping again! Woo!
They still only ship to the states that allow it, of course. But woo for us in Wisconsin at least, and many others!
