Whiskey week is here!

For those that are new to the Redstone whiskey week here is a rundown of how we allocate out some of our rarest releases. Once a year many of the best-known distilleries around the US release their flagships, not to mention some of the highest rated whiskies start hitting the shelves. The only issue is there is never enough of these releases to go around. Our solution is the Whiskey Draft raffle. (Again this raffle is for a chance to Purchase some of these rare bottles at MSRP)

With the success and the fun of past years drafts we have once again decided this to be the best and most fair way of rewarding our customers with a strong chance of scoring some of this rare whiskey (at MSRP) (This will be our 9th year running this program)

Redstone whiskey week will start tomorrow Thursday (January 27th) and will run though Monday (January 31st) Tuesday Feb 1st at 6pm (extended due to lost day with snowstorm)

Rules: For every bottle of 750ml whiskey purchased at Redstone Liquors (Andover or Stoneham) during Redstone whiskey week you will receive one raffle ticket (all same raffle)…

For every bottle of 750s from one of our Redstone Exclusive single barrel picks you will get 5 raffle tickets! (while supplies last) Note bottles purchased online must be picked up before we draw for tickets to count (Feb 1st 6pm)

BONUS: Any bottles purchased on Thursday January 27th will get 2 tickets per 750ml and 5 tickets for a Redstone barrel pick!(Black Friday rules)

Some of this years Redstone Exclusive barrels that are still available include:

Makers Mark Private Select bourbon (sold out)
Stellum Cask Strength Single barrel bourbon (sold out)
Grander cask strength toasted barrel finish rum single barrel (sold out)

On Wednesday February 2nd we will draw from the stack of raffle tickets collected to create a Draft order. First overall pick gets their pick of which whiskey they wish to purchase from the pool. Second pick get to chose from the pool of whats left and so on…
The more tickets you have in, the better your chance to get a spot… But note you can only win once.

If we draw your name multiple times you will get moved up in the list. (the folks with the most tickets drawn will move up in the draft based on number of time we pull their ticket). For those that only get picked once your spot on the list depends on the order it was picked.

When called you must make your pick while on the phone with us so that we can contact the next in line with what is avail to them.

In an effort of keeping this moving. If messages are not returned in 10min! we WILL move on to next person and you will get bumped until you call us back so please have your phone on you that day and keep this in mind when participating in whiskey week. The reason for having such a short call back window is because due to the large number of winners, Prior years lists have taken way to long to contact everyone (talking weeks here, and to be honest (ain’t nobody got time for that). If no call back in the same day we will take name off list and draw another. As a courtesy to those who have not been selected and are not waiting by the phone we will post a list of the winners first initial and last name Tuesday night on this page so that winners know to expect a call. All phone calls about “am i on the list” will be directed to this website to see if their name is on the list to keep our phone lines free for us to make these calls.

Full quantities of certain bottles will not be posted online (so that our distributors do not get the wrath of other stores) so swing on though and get your tickets today!
