  • We once again get to open the best bottle design in the game, Wild Turkey Master's Keep bourbon. This year's "Voyage" is a rum finished 10 year bourbon that we've been hearing some mixed reviews on, and it has us a little nervous to try it, especially with it costing $275.

    Earlier this year I just decided I’m done hunting for bourbons. I still stock a few bottles that I enjoy (Rare Breed, Buffalo Trace, JDSB) but the idea of having dozens of bottles, costing hundreds of dollars, that I rarely drink has lost all its appeal.

      I have some i want to try. I will passively look for them. I will pay MSRP. I will take advantage of friends visiting distilleries. I don't fear missing out and i am satisfied just living vicariously through the vloggers.

      There’s many great “drinking” bourbons that are available and reasonably priced. Then there’s the high margin / high profit “select” product that people aren’t buying so much for the bourbon, but for the opportunity to own something rare/expensive.

      The distilleries are moving to a price point where it meets demand. Price goes up because people are willing to pay for the demand. Sky is the limit and the bubble is already beginning

    Glad that Sean was able to give this the correct grade. These 200+ bourbons especially for something only 10yrs old is insane. Might be really good but price appropriately.

      The problem is even at newly inflated prices these bottles sell out almost instantly. A capitalist would say that’s even probably priced to low for the market.

    • @mikeb32
      @mikeb32 Рік тому

      @@brandon_sprague I guess that’s the problem is the newly inflated prices on bottles of bourbon, but it is also the fact that there are so many people hyping these bottles up when they shouldn’t. The companies are making less and less and putting them in special releases to hype up the fact that they have $175 bottle that they want to sell for 300. Coupled with the fact that everyone feels like they have to have it means they’re going to sell out. It’s great for capitalism but it’s not great for the average bourbon drinker. I just appreciate when someone says it’s a good bottle but probably not worth the price, the person who still wants it will still buy it, but it does give you a basis point of where you should or should not try to get it

      It's the same way in the scotch market, the prices have gone up and up. Some that I want to try is way outside my budget, and when I see on Reddit, the prices was lower a few years back, but not so much now.
      Sure, you can get some scotches and bourbons for pretty reasonable prices where I live, but most that are aged or sought after is pretty dang expensive. Some brands like The Macallan is very expensive all over, so you have to look for alternatives that is similar, but better priced.
      And you can basically forget about getting Blanton's around here, never seen it turn up, but regular Buffalo Trace is usually not hard to find.

There are so many great bottles in the $70-$100 range that are available any day that it just doesn't make sense (in time and money) for a regular guy to hunt and buy these $250+ bottles.
