Circumstantially found myself at a local liquor store and couldn't help but take a snapshot of their 'special cabinet' of alcohol and tobacco products........ smile

Whiskeys and Scotches

...and nearly every other fine spirit, and wine, have gotten tremendously more expensive in the last 10-15 years. I remember buying MaCallan 18 for $150! Oh well...

I'm going to have to downgrade to Macallan 12 now...

 
 By: patrick_y : March 25th, 2023-19:15
Can't afford drinking Macallan 18 at $400 USD a bottle! I used to be a snob towards the Macallan 12 - boasting I don't normally drink a Scotch under 18 years. But at this rate I'll be drinking Macallan 12 if prices don't come down for the 18! Thankfully I... 

Lmao!

I haven't tried it...

But it sounds like something good for Thanksgiving! I'm a very seldom drinker and I never crave a drink. So thank goodness I can usually afford the good stuff since I'm a slow consumer.

Will try 'em out!

Try Highland Park 18

 
 By: vitalsigns : March 25th, 2023-21:16
Not as good as Macallan 18, but really good for the price. Macallan lovers have suffered from name-price inflation similar to watch lovers. Lots of consumers chasing big names.

I have it. Never tried it.

I was told it's very peaty/smoky. I'm not a huge fan of too much peat/smoke. So I'll have to give it a try and see if I like it!

Let us know how it works out!

 
 By: vitalsigns : March 26th, 2023-05:25

It is...

That's why I prefer the 12 which is mildly peaty.

Ahh, didn't know you were a Scotch drinker!

Cheers! The Lalique Facet Tumbler, one of the tumbler designs I frequently use, along with the Lalique Hulotte/Owl Tumbler. ...  

Very nice! Love those tumblers...πŸ‘

I am simply happy....

 
 By: InHavenPro : March 25th, 2023-19:37
that even though whiskey is easily my favorite alcohol (for the sake of the alcohol itself, not for pairing with foods), my consumption levels are so low that a single bottle can easily last me a whole year if not longer........

Yes. Same here!

 
 By: patrick_y : March 26th, 2023-04:49
My Lalique tumblers have to get washed multiple times... Simply because they're used so rarely. But it is always a pleasure to use them, so much that I don't mind washing them! ...

To my knowledge, it is illegal in the state of California...

 
 By: patrick_y : March 25th, 2023-18:42
...to have different prices for credit cards and cash prices outside of automotive fuel. Definitely not a first-class operator. Of course, my knowledge about the law could be obsolete and maybe the law has changed to permit this. If that's the case, this ... 

I have no idea....

 
 By: InHavenPro : March 25th, 2023-19:39
myself! Great point, I'll find out about it....

You mean pricing wise??

Funnily enough....

I was there to complete my LiveScan submission in order to finally be eligible to receive a CCW license here in California....

Nikka from the barel and hibiki have the same price ?

 
 By: @lberti : March 25th, 2023-19:29
Which currency is is this ? 9999?

Good ol' USD

 
 By: InHavenPro : March 25th, 2023-19:34

Ah, its 99.99

 
 By: @lberti : March 25th, 2023-19:39
I would get the harmony for 99.99. The "nikka from the barell" is rather expensive here.

Exactly ;)

Haven't had...

 
 By: InHavenPro : March 25th, 2023-20:09
an Afuente before, but for that price I'll get two of 'em ........

Who's got the chips!?

You're in the U.S.?

 
 By: mdg : March 26th, 2023-02:16
I have an unopened bottle of the Yamzaki 12 waiting for me to open. That price cannot be US dollars. I think I paid $120 a year ago. I am willing to pay more if I find some, but not that much more : )

No doubt about it....

 
 By: InHavenPro : March 26th, 2023-03:39
$230-240 is precisely double what you paid! I admittedly haven't paid much attention to liquor prices lately, but now I'll have to check the price points of the same bottles at franchise grocery stores, just to see how much of a markup this specific indep... 

The problem is finding it, of course...

 
 By: mdg : March 26th, 2023-16:00
...if I can't find any where I live, then price doesn't matter. Kind of like Rolex : )

Wow…those are in USD?πŸ˜…πŸ˜±

Mac has really caught up!
