Considering Alexander Murray doesn’t make ANY whisky (I know, I’m their brand ambassador) you clearly have no clue what you’re talking about. We’re an independent bottler, we don’t produce any whisky whatsoever.
About 2 years ago Costco releases a Kirkland 22 year scotch from Alexander Murray for about $79 and it was outstanding. Haven't been able to find it since.
I was the brand ambassador for Alexander Murray. All Costco age statement releases are one time only. Alexander Murray doesn’t make whisky, they source it from distilleries in small batches. So if you like it, but multiples as it will never come back.
These name brand companies realize that there are two different customers, those who will pay top dollar for the name brand label, and those who don't care about the label and look for the cheapest price. The companies make a killing off their label for those willing to pay for it. It's what the market will bear. But although less of a killing, it's still very profitable for them to sell their product for a cheaper price without the name brand label. They may change some ingredient or something ever so slightly so that they can claim it's a different product. Still, they charge what the market will bear for their non-label product.I went to a snack food maker, and saw the same product dispersed in both name brand labeled bags and Great Value bags. Knowing all of that, I personally always buy the non-label product (e.g., Walmart's Great Value).
Towards the end of the video when Kirkland batteries is discussed, where the presenter says it is from Duracell; well, I wonder about that in 2024. Inside the package of the last batch of Kirkland batteries I bought, there was an *Energizer* batteries "Go Rewards" QR code card enclosed. Obviously the Energizer brand paid to have that promotion card inserted in the Kirkland batteries pack; but it makes one wonder if Kirkland has switched from Duracell to Energizer brand of batteries?
I had high hopes for Kirkland's Anejo Tequila after seeing reviews. Sadly, the product is not good. It's cheap and tastes like cheap tequila. Says 100% agave but tastes like a blend. That Fortaleza tequila in the video is MUCH better. And more expensive. I have had the Kirkland bottle I bought to try sitting on my bar for a long time. If you see the bottles next to each other at Costco, go for the Fortaleza. Or Lalo. Or El Tesoro. So many better choices are available.
What do you think of the Kirkland brand?
I think AI wrote this script

Terrible luck with Costco AA batteries. Only buy Duracell. Too many leaks!
This is my experience as well.
Good to know but, I've had that same problem with Duracell too. Been having pretty good luck with Energizer Max for the last five years though.
Kirkland batteries are Duracell
Duracell leak.
Duracell, are trash only buy Energizer lithium
Kirkland batteries are trash 🗑 the die fast and leak.

I remember when Costco had a coffee bean roasting machine on premises

It seems as if Mashed is obsessed with Costco as they produce so many videos about it on the regular
Kickbacks
Hahaha. I,m not sad bout it. Where I live, we don't have a Costco, so I enjoy learning what "I'm NOT missing". 👻😁😁😁
I like it. Costco is a good place.
Their Costco videos get more views than other videos from them.
Costco has created a Kirkland cult that people just buy
I cant buy Kirkland 12yo Scotch Whiskey in Texas.

No mention of beef or chicken.
Kirkland condoms are great for the price. So far I only have two kids
Kirkland is today's Sears brands.
