I was going to say, what happened?!? Did they stop carrying it? Because they should have the lowest price.

I haven't seen it stocked at Costco in a couple years, not sure why they don't carry it any longer but was where I always stocked up on it.

If spiciness is your jam, try the Glenfarclas 15. It was too much for my liking but it was a very complex, very engaging scotch to try.

Glenfarclas 15 is a good one. it's the only one in the core range that's 46% (vs 43%)

@tenth Old Pulteney 12 is $37.98 at Superstore starting today. Never seen it this low before.

At BSW in Mahogany. 4-5 on the shelf.

[msommers]

Damn, that is a good price.

Picked up a couple Edradour options from WoW, one Caledonian 12 yr and one Bourbon Cask Str 13 yr. It's a birthday gift for my wife....buuuut it's kind of an 'us' gift

Kensington Wine Market is pouring samples of a pretty incredible 29year old Glenfarclas single cask tomorrow between 1-5. Pricy bottle but well worth a taste if you’re in the area, 29 yr old cask strength with a full maturation in a first full sherry butt, really tasty stuff. Also just tried the Bruichladdich single cask from Willow Park, it’s really tasty too!

Not to sound like an old man here... but I remember this bottle being around $80 at Costco a few years back?

*Edit, just went back in the thread... noticed it mentioned earlier.

Yeah my old man used to buy it for ~$70-90.

Scotch prices have exploded over the past several years though.

Did you go??

I dropped by KWM for the tasting. The 21yo is quite good, and the 1992/29yo is even better. Another guy who was there tasted them and bought a bottle of each right away.

Personally I enjoyed the 29yo, but find my Glenfarclas 185 (https://kensingtonwinemarket.com/pro...th-anniversary ) to be similar in profile and taste just as good, so I'm sticking with my 185.

Crazy that just a few years ago you could buy it at Costco for $60

$60 Canadian

Lookie what I found!

It was at the Duty Free in Orlando Airport on our way back from vacation. I have no idea if its back in normal retail distribution or not as well. I hadn't seen it in years and last I was told it was discontinued. I hope I don't regret not grabbing more than one.

MmmHmm; but, no.

[ExtraSlow]

I like that johnnie Walker Swing. I'm not a big scotch guy, but the bottle is fun, the taste is good.
Bought a bottle for a family member a few years ago, and it went down smooth.

[bjstare]

That bottle has “art room” written all over it.

[davidI]

I wasn't going to buy any more bottles for a while but with inflation I figured it wouldn't hurt to pick these up with a 10% discount...

I purchased a 1-year old cask of Glen Elgin before trying it so I'm looking forward to seeing how it will be.

Let's us know what you think of the two on the right!
