… not only the quantity, but the sale price too!

As soon as I heard the crash of glass this afternoon, I knew it was not gonna be good. Shelf cleat gave way.
Casualties:

- John Bowman single cask rye

- Garrison Brothers small batch bourbon

- Milam & Greene triple cask straight bourbon (opened)

- Still Austin barrell strength rye

- Yellow Rose Outlaw straight bourbon

Pretty sure I bought it in 2006 or 07, but not 100% sure.

Is 1,3999$ a good deal to buy? Will it increase in value in years to come? Can this be a good investment?

Saw these bottles of Johnnie Walker Red in Egypt yesterday and honestly got a bit suspicious 😭

The bottles looked different from the ones I usually see in Europe, had Arabic writing on them, and some even said “12 years old” on the label — which confused me because JW Red isn’t age stated as far as I know.

I know brands often use different packaging for different markets, languages, importers, duty-free releases etc.,

but it still caught me off guard because the bottle shape/label looked unusual compared to the European versions.

Are these actually legitimate regional versions or is fake whisky a real issue there?

Curious if anyone else has seen these.

If I do say so myself

Glad to see 107 is out of the ABC vault in Florida ABC chain. Nice to see Winn Dixie sitting on cases of Charter Oak. Lady ask ”How many do you want?”Not that guy.

This took me six months, and inevitably a hard trade... but i finally snagged one of my own.

The SFTB was purchased today from the store but must have been sitting around for a while.
Washington seems to be getting a lot of Stagg over the last 6 months so picked up a backup bottle of the 26A

I haven’t bought a bottle in some time and decided to go for a drive today.

First picture is what I bought and the rest is what was available at some of the locations.

Most expensive bottle was the Charter Oak at $74.99 but I applied a $10 discount and cheapest was Eagle Rare at $44.99.
Places hit - Publix, WinDixie and Walmart
New to me is the Penelope Toasted, Michters Sour Mash and Charter Oak.

What would you have picked out?

Oaky, herbal note/tea like throws things off here. Finish is non existent. 6/10

Happy Mother’s Day bottle kill of a 16 Larue. I guess the lesson here is you can’t have backups to your mom, unless you’re adopted. I suppose your dad could remarry so you could kind of have a mom back up…….. Uhmmm maybe your dad’s been married several times and he’s a piece of shit but all your step moms are cool. Then….. uhm I guess you could have multiple backups to your mom. Just get backups of 16 Larues though because that’s less confusing. Either way here’s a toast to you all the mothers and motherfuckers and limp dicks who fuck mothers. What?

Enjoying a pour or two from bottles I got this week
