This is the problem with at least 90% of the bottles over $100. Well, two problems, actually. First, the bottle has to be better than similar offerings that are under $100. Some don’t even make it that far. Then second, it has to be enough better to justify the 2x or 3x (or worse!) multiplier on price, and that is where most of them fail.
Doesn't mean I won't still buy them
....just not as often.
Looking at this shelf again, you've got me beat at this point lol. I have 4 different bottles at the moment, and one rye.

That’s a good idea. I’m gonna pour one of these.
I’m still in search of the Rye

They're worth the hunt!
Pulled a 60" table rail today, so the extra octane was welcome lol.

Oh yes. I’m drinking a delicious Wilderness Trail rye right now, but I should have poured OF. One of my absolute favorites.
Vanilla, red fruit (raspberry & grape), banana, oak, pepper. spicy rye, all cranked up to 11.....

The barrel strength rye is a unicorn here and I’ve only once seen a bourbon in over 5 years. I had to get this one from a buddy in Louisville. Both are just stellar!

Saw a Saffell for $60 this week. Always been curious about this wee little 375mL weirdo with the WT mash bill. Very tasty!

Excited to finally see this on the shelf! Been looking for a long time.
My local place still has CASES of this, if anyone wants one during the NJ meetup (or PA meetup for that matter). I think it is in the $65 range.
Regional differences can be strange. I was near downtown last month, so I stopped in at our local, high volume liquor store that typically has everything that's available in Houston. They had a shelf tag for it, so I asked the guy working in the whiskey aisle if there was any in the back. He said they only get a case or two at a time, and it always sells out the day it comes in. All the reviews have been solid, so I'm looking forward to cracking it open tonight.
FYI, if I love it, I may reach out to have you pick up a couple more for me. I'm planning to be at PHL in September.
Saw this on the shelf. Never seen it before. I passed on it, but thought it was interesting.
I'm curious about the American Single Malt whiskeys, but at $66 and only 90 proof, I'd pass on that one too.
Haven't had many American single malts, but I've enjoyed Stranahan's. Similar to non-peated Scotch. I have a bottle of the original and the sherry cask on my scotch shelf. I believe they are 94 proof, I think I paid $55 for the original and $65-70 for the sherry cask. On my 3rd bottle of the original.
