Whiskey lovers in Pennsylvania have a chance to get their hands on some rare bottles, including bourbons from Kentucky's Wild Turkey and Buffalo Trace distilleries.
The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board is holding five limited-release lotteries that include 4,429 bottles of rare whiskey, state liquor officials said Monday.

Pennsylvania residents and licensees of legal drinking age can enter the lotteries until 5 p.m. Friday. Lottery participants may opt in to one, several or all drawings, but winners will have their names removed from all subsequent lotteries.
The PLCB will notify all winning and non-winning entries by email in the following weeks to purchase bottles from the drawings.
Those interested in entering the lotteries must have an active account with Fine Wine & Good Spirits. Participants will need to provide a verifiable Pennsylvania billing address and identify a Fine Wine & Good Spirits store for delivery at registration.
Resale of any products won in the lotteries is prohibited. Violations will result in disqualification from future lotteries, PLCB officials said.
