Are you implying that @gopherblue is some kind of 21 year old amateur?

For domestic flights, you can legally pack up to 5 liters of alcohol per person in checked baggage as long as it’s under 140 proof and sealed in its factory packaging/wrapper. Whether they check closely for any of those criteria is probably a crapshoot. My guess is that an opened bottle probably gets thru especially if it’s wrapped up properly to protect it during transit.
International flights also follow those same regulations but customs declarations/rules also need to be adhered to depending on the direction the alcohol is going. I have no clue what the rules were back in 89 but I’m guessing you probably violated them

Getting the not the Dark Arts. Tried a few of their expressions and took these home from a tasting last night. $89-99 range.

Anyone sitting on a bottle of Mortlach 16 Flora and Fauna that you want to part with?
This is some amazing stuff at this price point, IMO.
Used to find that on the shelf day in and day out at $60/btl.
Damned label-chasers.
Huge fan of Mortlach but don't have the F&F. Curious as to why you're looking for this specific bottle, Scott. I'll keep my eyes open...

Sampled it last night and really liked it, and would like to give it a few more rounds, but told it’s harder to find now a days….at least at a fair price
Best reason for seeking out a bottle, for sure! Yes, it's hard to find. I didn't think they had released it since early '10s but it seems there's a '20 release. Mortlach has now an official 16yo release that should be pretty close to the F&F (other than the F&F being distilled mid-'90 most likely), around a hindi. My guess you'd pay 3x that for the F&F, for the collectability of it...
Be careful man… It’s a slippery slope to getting into full fledged witchcraft..

No problems with customs. Plastic cap on the tequila was definitely a problem. I got a lot of looks on the train from Gatwick to Leeds.For domestic flights, you can legally pack up to 5 liters of alcohol per person in checked baggage as long as it’s under 140 proof and sealed in its factory packaging/wrapper.

One of my poker buddies walked in with this bottle at the last game and handed it over. "Someone gave this to me and it's terrible, but I figured you'd drink it!"
Well, maybe about the terrible thing he was lol. It's definitely different than your typical Irish, drinks more like a scotch and I do like sherry cask finishes. Very nice for a low octane start to the evening.
