I was very surprised after waiting all year to see them drastically cut the price a day after our summer tourist season ended. From $69 to $39 for a 2019, 2020, and 2021 cask strength releases 375ml. It has had the asterisk on the full price tag for awhile now and I was hoping this day would come. About a full pallet left when I got mine.
8 months waiting for them to cut the price and dump their stock.

But how does your liver feel about this price cut?

It's happy to have the bourbon, could use a break from peaty scotch.
But in all seriousness, this will last my spouse and I for a long time. We keep a full bar stocked, as long as your drink of choice is brown. Ive got bottles on our bar Ive had longer than I've known my spouse.

So this is about a 2-3 month supply?

It is nine 750ml bottles total volume, and with having around 40 other bottles in our bar before the MM additions we will probably have a bottle of this cask MM still next summer.

Oh I see. Moderation. Admirable.

Very much quality > quantity. We do also like to host friends and family events.

Probably for the best, I know a few people that go through that like water between drinking and cooking. Just amazed at how fast it disappears.

How did you know they were going to drop the price?

I was never certain, but if the items price tag has an asterisk in the upper right corner it means they are not bringing that product back. Pair the asterisk with a very large amount of product that wasn't getting much interest, and I figured one day it would happen. I also saw other costco member's posting the same product and the price slowly was reduced around the country.

Why are so many open?
Alchemy@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 2y
The front 3 are the open ones and they are each a different year release and taste very different. We were doing a little blind tasting.
