I paid $80 for the other bottle. I agree it sucks, but I save it up for special occasions .. so it lasts me a while and it spread the cost out! :)

I found a bottle today at my local liquor store and paid $75. I don’t think that, or even $80 is a bad price for it. Supply and demand unfortunately.

Buffalo trace and elijah craig also wild turkey rare breed are great. Scotch is a tad better imo🥃

Ohhhh my....... this punches FAR above its cost ($38.99 locally)
I've avoided it for a while because of the bottle. I always figure that a good portion of the cost goes into the fancy glassware, but this. This is exceptionally good for a sub $60 bourbon. Not too sweet, nicely spiced (as in, actual spice flavors, not 'hot') with a very warm & mellow aftertaste.
This is DEFINITELY going on my regular buy list.

I don’t always drink bourbon, but when I do it is Evan Williams. I am staring to understand why my brother calls me Uncle Eddie from Christmas Vacation.

This week at fish camp (subsistience fishing in alaska for the win!) I bought a bottle of Russell’s Reserve to share. This is now my favorite bottle. Get it locally for $37 on sale.

Bulliet and Buffalo Trace are my favorites sub $30.

Above $30 Elijah Craig barrel proof (or really any of the barrel proofs) and currently William McKenna 10yr

It’s a shame that some of you guys outside of the south who like buffalo trace and bulleit can’t get Old Charter! Very similar and an Excellent bourbon!
