Highly collectible bottle with ultra rare juice. The history of this bottle is an amazing story. If you know about the buy out, then you know that this was bottled before Blanton’s was purchased by a Japanese company and before the old juice ran dry.
If you’ve been collecting for a while now then you also know that the quality of bourbon has dropped dramatically in the last 5 years. With brands like Elijah Craig being the most noticeable. Bottles that used to be aged 12 years and sold at a reasonable price are now sold without an age statement for more money. Sadly this inferior juice is barely drinkable. With only shallow tasting notes and even worse sniffing notes. The piss they sell now doesn’t hold up.
But this bottle will re-invigorate your passion for bourbon.
Make a reasonable offer. You’ll know you’ve come close when you have to ask your wife for permission.
If you contact me to tell me you can find it for a few hundred dollars somewhere else, then by all means go buy that one. Good luck.
