Went on the Liquorama website for grins. Prices are outrageously high compared to Total Wine in Orlando or other on line sites. If it's something you absolutely can't get anywhere else, fine. But for quite a few single malts, etc., there are better places to shop.

I went on Liquorama also and found a good price on Absolut Elyx. After you add in the shipping of $20, it wasn't much of a bargain.

I would not use them for stuff you can buy around here. Doesn't make sense. But if you are looking for something hard to find, they usually have it at a somewhat competitive price. And once you buy something from them, you get specials like free shipping or % discount coupons. I buy wine from them sometimes, but I always get free shipping. The OP was looking for items he couldn't source locally. This place had it. Not the place to buy everyday items. Only things hard to find elsewhere.

Does it really make difference? It's all colored (aged) moonshine and tastes like kerosene?:beer3::pepper2:

Like Good scotch or wine, whiskey is something you love or not. My youngest is Certified in scotch, I i’m certified in wine. I am not a fan of scotch and he is not a fan of wine. However we can both pick up a sample of wine or scotch, tell you what notes it has, tell you roughly where it’s came from, how old it is.

You continue to amaze me. My father was said to be able to discern the year and place the grapes were grown of the wine he tasted. He was a brewmaster by trade.

vintage bourbons
 
I have slowed down quite a bit on my drinking. I have several bottles of vintage bourbons I would like to sell that I know I will never get around to drinking. When I say vintage I'm talking about the 1970's era. Most bottles still have a tax stamp seal on the bottles. I can send someone pics to post. If anyone wants to pm me that's fine too.
Mike
