sengjc Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 And the second release of Starward exclusive bottlings: 3
skalls Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Independent bottlings of Glenlivet (46% 19 yo), Laprhioag (16 years 50%), Craigellechie(19 years 50%), Kilchoman Vintage 2008, Ardbeg Uigedall, and Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban. Also got a bottle fo 16yo Kirkland single malt from the Highland region. It's only at 40% but figured I was at Costco and couldn't hurt to have 1 more bottle of scotch. More whisky > less whisky. Hindsight being 20/20 I already had 2 bottles of Uigedall. Given how good it is I won't be complaining about having 3 bottles in reserve. 4

jabster Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Happy with this haul. These Glendronach are becoming hard to find, and Longrow red is exciting. 3

LeafLover Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 6 bottles of HIbiki 12 yr. Prices on these jumped considerably since last year. ....because I'm DAM TIRED OF SEARCHING FOR IT since February of this year. Bought seven out of 10 bottles remaining from two stores of the BevMo chain from Temecula to Valencia. Left 3 for other people to buy- allowed a relative to buy my 7th bottle. 3
alpyigit Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Having experienced the Japanese whiskey price hyperinflation mentioned above, stocking up the ***** FTB's at every opportunity before the prices shoot up for these.. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2
Lotusguy Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I've pretty much stopped buying any Japanese juice - the pricing is ridiculous. NAS blended whiskey for $60 - not from me. Notable exception is the above mentioned from the barrel - for now.
dangolf18 Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Stumbled upon a bottle of Yoichi 15 at a small shop in Marin County...was priced at $125. Expensive for a 15 year old, but bought it anyway. They also had Yamazaki 12 for $85.99 and Yamazaki 18 for $240. Passed on those. 1

jabster Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I know of a guy buying Yama 18 for $200 Aus, I have now seen them for $800. All in the space of 12 months. Cray cray 1

Popular Post dangolf18 Posted December 10, 2015 Popular Post Posted December 10, 2015 Very strange find today...they were just sitting on a shelf for $63 each. I think they are from the 1970s or 1980s. Great fill levels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6

Surucipe Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 The 2015 Laphroaig Cairdeas in celebration of the distillery's 200th Anniversary. I also have one of these in the queue waiting to be opened. Did you open one of yours already?
sengjc Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I also have one of these in the queue waiting to be opened. Did you open one of yours already? These are for collecting - I'll try to get another bottle for drinking.
