Supercharger Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 52 minutes ago, Clueby said: Pricey indeed. The bottles I saw recently were $660. And those are 375ml bottles. Distillery price is $499. Yes, still absurd. I’ll likely never have a shot at SW juice. Even if I did, most collectors are snapping up old dusties like crazy and driving the prices up. I though I’d use a new job as an excuse to buy now. Ill likely drink it one day as a milestone achievement, perhaps with my kids when they’re ready.

Im stupid happy that I found something that is even remotely close. Enjoy your bottle and be happy you splurged! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshall9779 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 From my counties whisky event yesterday. It’s gotten too crazy. No more camping out for me. Go there at 8:45 the night before and was about 115 in line. Probably just do the afternoon releases from now on.EC is a 10 yr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen one of those in awhile and even though I have several I decided WTF I'll get another. It's good drinking. I totally agree. The restaurant we usually go to before our Broadway Series play in Louisville still has a bottle. I have a pour every time we're there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These & the Willett I’d already paid for just hadn’t been able to get down & pick them up. The ER picks have been scarce until just recently around me. I’ve picked up seven the last couple months from three different stores. I’m not mad about it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
