Popular Post sengjc Posted August 2, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2015 A few bottles of the Highland Park 1990, this line originally released as a duty free exclusive in 2010. Eventually, some stock of these became available for retail. A local retail chain was having a clearance of the last remaining 3 bottles in-house at way below duty free pricing. A 20 year old vintage malt that is becoming scarce and a decent drop in its own right. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surucipe Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I tried this at Feis Ile this year. A cracking good dram, glad to have won a chance to pick some up! Too bad they are 35 cl bottles - would be nicer to be full size bottles, but I guess this way more folks can try it! Laffy.jpg I bought one as well. Thought the price was reasonable but didn't notice that these are 35cl bottles... ah well, it's still going to taste good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChanceSchmerr Posted August 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2015 It came in the mail quite quickly, I was surprised!

dangolf18 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Nabbed a bottle of W.L. Weller 12 year old for $26. Luckiest of finds considering it's essentially the same as Pappy Van Winkle 12 (so I've heard). Sadly, I'll be probably saving it until I can find another bottle since it goes for $150+ on the secondary market. Eh, if I find the right occasion, I'll probably be opening it lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanceSchmerr Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Looks amazing...I am mildly jealous that I missed out on the ballot now. I'll sure there will be some on the secondary market, hopefully for a minimal markup - you should have a good shot with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rye Posted August 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2015 Some recent clearance shelf acquisitions. For $50 each, these were a no-brainer And a friend set up a GB at cost, so another no-brainer One more trip to the clearance shelf and yep... No-brainer at $55 A good friend helped me out in the knick of time on this bottle as I was just about to pour the last drop of one of my old faves. I like scotch!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the Sullivan's Cove Double Cask at that price is a no-brainer, and Macallan 18...well, I don't need to add anything really about why one would want to pick this up for their collection!

I have yet to try the double cask, but I quite liked the sherry cask and cask strength Sullies, so that inspired this decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not $150 in the US, but very scarce these days. Drink it and enjoy it, even Van Winkle Lot B isn't that great, usually.Lot B is cherry-picked barrels and watered down to 90 proof. W.L. Weller is the barrel proof version. Weller 12 is the best of the rest. That said, far better than Weller Antique 107 or Special Reserve.
