I know it's supply and demand, but after buying Booker's all day long at $49.99, seeing it in my local liquor stores for $79.99 just makes my enthusiasm wane.

It’s crazy how quick they raise the prices. I bought a few bottles of that McKenna for 29.99 a few years back. Now I see it goes for $80-100.

McKenna 10 is still pretty available for $39.99 (which to me is still a great value). But yes, the bourbon market has lost its damn mind.

the 10 year? Because the new McKenna stuff is no age statement. I see that everywhere for $30-40. There is a place by me asking $140 for a 10 year McKenna.

Yep. No decanter on hand either, so I've ordered one from Amazon that should be here by Thursday. Surprisingly, I was like, "****, that stinks" and poured myself a drink and went outside to smoke a cigar

Yeah, $150 at plenty of NYC area joints for the 10 year. Just stupid.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. I've had that batch too, it's awesome. The 70.7% spirit may dissolve the cork by tomorrow.

i know it. Dumped it into a pitcher, rinsed bottle with spring water, and poured it back in with a wine stopper to seal it up. Should be good for the month or so it will be sitting in the bottle
