DROP 300

300+ Bottles. One Store. One Day Each Month.

DISCLAIMER: Due to temporary changes in statewide product availability, some highly sought-after selections may not be included in upcoming events. Some popular selections — including Eagle Rare, Weller, E.H. Taylor and Blanton’s — are currently affected and may not appear in upcoming drops. We aim to be transparent with these changing conditions while keeping the program consistent, and we appreciate your understanding.

DROP 300: Monthly Allocated Bourbon Release

Durham County ABC is updating its monthly allocated bourbon release to reflect current product availability.

Beginning in summer 2026, weekly 100-bottle drops were replaced by a larger monthly release held at one Durham County ABC store. Going forward, this monthly event will be known as DROP 300, featuring 300+ allocated bottles at one location.

Some highly sought-after selections are currently affected by temporary changes in statewide availability and may not be included in upcoming drops. Products and quantities will vary each month based on the inventory available to Durham County ABC.

DROP 300 is designed to make allocated releases more accessible, more exciting and easier for customers to understand.
