How does the 12 compare to the 18?

The lower the year, the bigger the bite. Mac, all years, still has extremely good flavor.

I leave the bottle open for a week before I start drinking it; smooth's it out.

@datawiz stopped by Total Wine in Jax and got these. They have a bottle of MacAllan 25 in stock; $2,199. Glen Fohdry at $200 is quite nice.

I just don't want to put them at the street. I'd rather someone enjoy the cash that they bring to them.

Why didn't you buy me the 25?

Gonna head down to Estero next week after my "first paycheck" hits. Tired of living off of savings, but looking forward to another bottle of 25.

I brought these bottles to a buddy's house over the weekend. That Kirkland 23 was real damn good and only $105 in Washington state where they have stupid high alcohol taxes.

If I can find that again locally I'll buy it for sure and it should be under $100 in California. I ended up drinking that whole damn bottle over two days.

So the wife came back from the Class IV store the other day and instead of bringing me a bottle of the 12 or 15 year old Macallan she got this stuff simply called "Gold".... I'm not a fan. Not even sure what the age of this stuff is. Looks like Macallan has released a new bottom of the barrel scotch. Yuck.

U.M.

I'm not a scotch drinker, but I am rewatching Better Call Saul and recognized the Macallan 1966 in a scene because of this thread.

Wow...check this out. It appears EMPTY bottles of Macallan 25 are worth some serious money.

Clicky

Wonder if people buy the empty ones, fill it with shit scotch, and then pawn it off as the real thing, or simply do it for bragging rights to make it look like their liquor cabinet is well stocked.
