statements like this.... and worse, the logic behind them.... are exactly why I only come to CR for the one thread about whiskey.

What point are you making by stating this? That it's okay that she didn't know better?

I second OWA and MM Cask strength (batch 20-01 is great). Would also toss Larceny in there.

I could give you enough ounces to get you there.

Got inspired to do some projects too because we just got a cricut (and made some stencils). Made this bottle glorifier to celebrate WFE picks i've done. Then, my buddy made fun of me using bookers boxes as risers... so i made some "nicer" risers.

the realness

Tis I

The Nocino is a nice novelty. I get why people would like it. It's not for me.

I am. Why?

That was seconds after we purchased them from the agency they were shipped-to. I got opens! I'm the last person that just "looks at my whiskey".

Actually, latest 4 picks we did.

it's a toss up. I think it's brown forman. (19 year old king of kentucky).

a bottle from a 19 year barrel I picked w/some buds.

Also, WT101 rye is also a banger

Starlight sucks. The family is great. Wonderful people. Their hooch needs some time to age.

kinda fast

papa joes (across the border off of 70) big red liquors Crown liquors - (Post road has good picks, etc) Rural Inn (best of the 4 mentioned)

WT101 is great for the scratch

LAST DROP update: 12K offer was accepted. (listed at 20, accepted at 12). I predicted 12K. DAMN. IM. GOOD.

FIRST OFFFER on the Last drop thread in BSM was made!!!! From Prav in DC! 12K Let's see if the seller bites.

LAST DROP from BT update: Just hit BSM, asking price of 20k... because... why not? Let's see what it goes for!!!

I have seen this bottle go up for 30K on secondary. Someone offered 25K 30 seconds later, and the deal was done. Unreal. Willett Family estate #473

Pappy is iconic and has been for 10 years. All these crazy new ploys to charge more .... ARE (technically) working, but not to the same multiple like PVW (10x on p23.... 300.00 to 2.8K) "Where am I getting my numbers" DEVR is 2500 MSRP and sells for 7-11k depending on batch. Recent OFC are 2500 and sell for 3300-4000. "Final Reserve" (45 years old) has MSRP of 4400 and sells for like 5-6k tops. Oops. actually at retail... https://dewinespot.co/products/james-thompson-brother-final-reserve-45-year-old-kentucky-straight-bourbon-whiskey Bourbon that commands 10-30K per bottle is typically stuff that came out prior to 2015 and is scarce now that many got consumed and only very few unopened bottles remain (to this point, they got consumed because htey were cheap bottles back then, many folks are likely kicking themselves when they drank a 100.00 bottle of Willett that now sells for 10k, 20k, even 25K in a heartbeat once listed). To your point, YES this is limited to 240 bottles. But, if you want one all you have to do is offer 2-3x retail and someone will come off of one because it will be a recent release. Added notes - double eagle very rare is 20 year old whiskey, and limited to 299 (i think) bottles. The average price for that batch (batch 1) is like 9-11k depending on the day. I think the first one sold for 15-17K.

^^^^^^ first one, 12K second one 11K tenth one 7k will level off at 6k-7k It's only 20 year old whiskey. Yes it was vatted, but that doesnt continue to age it. Consider that the recent OFC releases barely fo for more than their 2700 OTD retail and those are similar in age and such. Also consider that other schemes like last drop barely sell for over their outrageous MSRP's also.

it's not about that. I want to show you the wormhole.
