They did. I was surprised because their Whiskey offerings were lame. But the Plantation 20 was superb. Not horribly pricey, either. At least compared to NYC prices. Sort of chintzy pours, though. Nonetheless, it was the perfect way to end the day.

I've been hearing about this and I need a tasty, smooth sipping Tequila. Since it's not my favorite, my max amount is $50.
I've also heard great ribs about Qui Platinum....

Believe I found this one for $45, but apparently you have to find a batch pre-buyout since the latest batches vanilla flavor is too enhanced and fake apparently. Haven't tried the latest batch but mine bottled in 2015 tastes great.

I tried a tequila called Partida elegante the other day at a friends... FWIW, I will say its super expensive... its $399 at Total Wine however I have never tasted a tequila as good. It has 0 after taste and is strictly for sipping... I would never mix it; its so good.

Those of you who enjoy proper 12. Have you noticed that the price has crept up? Used to be able to get a bottle for about $21. Now it's up to 30. Talked with liquor store owner who said yes they jacked the price up.

I have 18 bottles so I haven’t shopped it in a while. But I have noticed that it fluctuates more than other brands.

Still $24.99 here. Same as it's been. Although that's pre-tax and since I always use a cc, I get hit with another charge. Comes to $28 when all is said and done.

I forgot how refreshing Gin can be! Especially with a splash of Sprite and lime.

Prices of P12 are everywhere. I get my drinking stuff all from Total Wine which they have been selling steadily at $19.99. I have seen other liquor stores selling them for $30-40.

The liquor store in Venetian Vegas is selling them for $50

I recently open up a 18 year Kirkland branded scotch that I got quite a while back. It is surprisingly nice and price was only $50-60. Not seeing Costco selling them for a while now.

I'm almost always a whiskey or beer guy, but a buddy brought a bottle of Azul Tequila to our Friday night poker game and I gotta say it's pretty damn good!


I also found a couple more bottles of MWND to add to my Rye collection

Been meaning to try that Azul but instead I picked up another bottle of Casamigos Reposado and Anejo this time to see which I prefer. Give this a shot tonight
