PhantomLamb Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 This just went up for a lottery pick on the PA Wine and Spirits site, MSRP of $2k. https://www.gobourbon.com/double-eagle-very-rare-has-landed-from-buffalo-trace/ Looks pretty cool but a tad gaudy with the packaging and way too pricy for my blood.

Not sure what the over the top packaging costs but probably not $1800 for this bottle that is (for me) about a $200 at best whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Tot Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 At least the advertising department improved upon their working title for this release... "66 Times Price, Very Dubious." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry in WashDC Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 As I read this, I'm sipping on an other 90 proofer - AAA. Maybe a SBS will convince me the $2,000 MSRP on the DEVR20 is worth it. Or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trash can? Car trunk? Basement? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs. Harry in WashDC is NOT afraid of any spiders and knows where Harry stashes all of his stuff anyways. He just thinks she doesn't know (heh, heh). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, was that a " Triple Double Rare Very, Very, Very Rare Eagle Rare" or was it a "Double Triple, Extra Very Bonded Rare Eagle"? I have both, you know. MODS - I AM KIDDING!! And, this offer is for the LABEL ONLY! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCWoody Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Curiosity has me wondering how many of these bottles will be opened...….. I don't mind paying a little more for something special, but this cant be that, "special"...…. and I know me, I would open it, and taste it, and smell it, and play with it, and snuggle it, and..... I think I just went to far...…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyro273 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 NO bottle of liquor is worth $2K IMHO much less almost $20K. I know of one bottle of PVW25 that's open, sitting behind the bar at Sage in the Aria where you can add it to a $300ish Pappy flight (1/2 oz pour) for $500 and it's going to take a hell of a night at the blackjack table to even think about going down that road. This stuff is destined for that "fate" as well. Being the BT fan that I am, I'd LOVE to find out how it tastes but I seriously doubt I'll ever find out.
