well... that’s a good price.... for the black prince. Retail is $500... It’s too rich for my blood. They’ve sourced this rye from MGP (previous years have been CAndian). Aged 14 years and finished in Armagnac barrels... I’ve just never been able to get into Whistle Pig too much... and maybe I’m the only one but I hate finished whiskey. Especially rye, which I love. I love a nice prototypical rye finish; heavy on the pepper... but it’s gstting well reviewed and it would be interesting to try. It’s not flying off the shelves though. I say hi to a bottle every week and it doesn’t tempt me at all... pikesvilke 7 yo rye works quite well for me...

So TL;DR good price on expensive booze that’s still likely overpriced. Gets good reviews though.
