@Jett129 hell yeah. there’s enough solid competition in the game that you can do that without having to settle. I still think Elijah toasted is my best-buy and it’s all over the place. I’d rather spend $60 on a bottle worth that much than some hard-to-find bottle worth half that.

@WhiskeySandwich Love the E.C. Toasted. Have you tried the rye toasted yet?

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Jett129 not yet, but I will be on the lookout for it now!

[Jett129]

@WhiskeySandwich I haven’t tried it myself. But I have to get over to this particular store as they have it on sale.

@WhiskeySandwich I can’t even imagine how frustrating that is, struggling to find US made products in the US.. thanks for the heads up with the Sazerac Rye, I’ll keep my eye out for that. It’s only in the last few years I’ve discovered I much prefer bourbon over Irish. Got gifted a bottle of 101 one Xmas and the Irish tasted like water after so that was the end of that. never really clicked with Scotch, only the smoky niche Mcallans. Love BT and up to quite recently Amazon would deliver a bottle to my door for £16. It’s currently at £23 a bottle.

@Tago-Mago gorgeous cocktail

[Tago Mago]

@SKT thanks. Love a negroni, either traditional or with mezcal like today

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Tago-Mago I had one for the Italian GP. Love em. I tried mezcal one before tho and it was a bit…off. I’m all about the Hendricks or Boodles

I don't bother with the whisky craze right now so I don't pay the higher prices, but yes, people are paying crazy prices. The bottle of weller I used to buy for like 15$ over 10 years ago is like 100$ if you can even find it.

I remember buying 1.75L Antique Weller in college for $45 and it was available damn near everywhere. Kills me to know what just a 750mL of Antique Weller goes for now if you can even find it.
