Anyone know what a good secondary price for a 1st edition Little Book would be?

Can’t help. My boozapp app doesn’t have that price. And despite my mediocre efforts, I still haven’t found or been invited to a secondary forum.

Are you buying or selling?

Found these 2 on my after work whiskey hunt. Should be interesting.

@kmccormick100

Is that CYPB a decent price?

Nice pickup on the Redwood. The CYPB price looks to have a misplaced decimal point.

First pour from this bottle. It is ALREADY the best Knob Creek I have ever tasted. I liked the SB reserve, would buy again.....but only if I cant find this.

Annual putting-up-of-the-Christmas-decorations with family. Obviously the best part being able to tuck into my dad's whisky collection. Starters:

Both wonderful drams — but the Lore is something else entirely.

Ooh really want to try that PX cask finish!

Whoa where did you find the port finish???!

I went to my local Bevmo near work and they said they only got 1 bottle. On my way home, I decided to try my luck and stopped by another Bevmo...lucky me, the mgr had some in the backroom.

I'm becoming a huge fan of the Redwood lineup. I normally don't gravitate towards lower proof bourbons. The flavor profile on these are just too damn good!

Finally, part 3 of bottles I need to open and try. Nothing special here.

Finally found one of my white whales…who brought along a blue friend.

……..like……..how?

Many, many hours on the Pequod, Ishmael.

No.

Everything minus the Sagamore Rye is on my list to try one day. I've had the barrel proof E.H. Taylor thanks to @Saoliver It was AMAZING!!!!! The only reason the SR isn't on my to try list is that I don't know anything about it lol

Just cracked my Sagamore double Oaked the other night and really enjoyed.

Liquid dessert, rich caramel. A lot more of a bourbon than rye

I would be buying.

 

[ChaosRock]

I would be buying.

I haven't seeing one of those up for gabs in quite some time, man... If I see any data point to help you out I'll let you know... My guesstimate, that could be totally off would be $250ish. Although if we compare with the Blood Oath series, the first edition is going for way more than that...

Darn competition

I would buy at that price. I don’t have any sense of how secondary works but I know I bought 2’s from stores for I think $180-$200ish about a year ago. Maybe a little more but at the time I was okay with the price.

 

[gopherblue]

I might have a line on some Little Book 2's in the $200-250 range....

i have a little book 2

Mail day. This Hirsch bottle is beautiful.

It's a banger, for sure! In fact, it's really hard to fault any of the Laphroaig range at the moment.

Thanks Paulo. The offer is $225, so doesn’t sound like it’s out of line.

I've had a few of their bottles. I really enjoyed every single one of them. I have one more pour of the quarter cask I also really enjoyed the barrel proof Laphroaig!

Secondary seems to be going crazy. I like looking back at the first pages of this thread. Talking about getting ETL for under $40. Flash forward 5 years and people are getting $300 for it.

 

[jr8719]

I'm really not sure which distillery this comes from, but for a budget supermarket's own range, Aldi really can't be beat. They generally release a 12 and 18-year-old expression every year just for Christmas and, for £20, the former has been getting rave reviews.

This is actually my first foray into Speyside; while I'm not in love, the fruitiness does make a nice change to the peatiness of my favoured Islay.

Sherry Cask finishes are faves of mine and Pedro Jimenez finishes are near the top

How does the Quarter Cask compare to the 10, would you say? Is there a standout winner?

Quarter cask tastes like drinking a campfire in the best way possible

I prefer the quarter cask. I think it was only an extra 20 bucks. I thought the flavor profile was more complex. The finish is amazing. You have to enjoy feeling of drinking a campfire. I know it sounds bad, but it isn't. Its awesome!
