Agreed, although I will say that, everywhere else I’ve been, Florida is a good example, the price of a bottle was only a few dollars more. Not nine dollars.
But that’s not the wholesale price, that’s the retail price. And that is also absolute crazy bullshit. I can see how it was not a hard decision to make.
I haven’t been a buyer for eight years now but this was a perpetual issue in parts of the country. I was blown away when I found out it was a bargain brand as in Boston where I first tried Bulleit it was more expensive than Evan William’s vintage release (RIP). I just thought they were chasing JD in that whole image driven brand rather than good quality to price ratio

No it was $9 more at wholesale in NY than in retail in KY. It was almost twice the price on my shelf than yours in FL
Like I said, I’m not too familiar with wholesale pricing. I’ll take your word for it.
