Very Rare Tequila

I guess I'm the only one here that drinks mostly for the alcoholic content. :cool:

Life is too short to drink bad booze. Or eat bad food. Etc.

We've discovered that we really do have an alcohol problem, but it's a purchasing problem, not a consumption problem. We tend to buy interesting stuff, but a fair amount of it. We have something like 20+ different bourbons alone in the bar, with more Scotches, Irishes and vodkas as well.
 
I’ve never been able to acquire a taste for Tequila but I gift a bottle of Marques de Casa Noble to a very good friend each year for Christmas. I’ve joined the Bourbon craze as much as anybody I guess, with my personal favorites being Basil Hayden Toast and Michter’s. I’ve also found a go-to after-work sipper in a flavored whiskey. If you can check your ego at the door over such things and not pre-judge it on price, Old Camp Peach Pecan Whiskey is amazingly smooth and tasty. Everyone that I’ve convinced to give it a try has added it to their own liquor cabinet. Cheers!

I don't drink alcohol anymore but my brother-in-law is a tequila fanatic. He has a large room in his house that is floor to ceiling tequila. He is on a tequila tasting review board He lives near me in Washington.

Well today in Arizona I went to a large well known Liquor store in Scottsdale to get something special for him (Trevor's liquor store). Oh Boy did I show up at the right place at the right time. A very rare small batch in extremely high demand in the tequila connoisseur community was just released for sale. I messaged my brother in-law and he freaked out. Never seen him like this lol. So out of the about 12 bottles that got released I bought my brother-in-law 8 bottles. He said this was was top 5 for best days of his life lol. The remaining about 4 bottles sold quickly to people my brother in-law knows from his online tequila community. I'll be bringing him his eight bottles tomorrow to do what he wants with them. The other bottles that got purchased went up for sale in the tequila community and sold immediately. First one sold for $550 next two sold for $600 each. No wonder my Brother in-law is so happy lol. I paid $104 each for the 8 bottles I bought him. Sounds like they are worth some $. He will probably keep at least 3. I'm happy for him to do whatever he wants with them. He takes care of my place in WA when I'm in AZ. So I'm happy I can give this to him.

Awesome gesture. I’ll have to let my brother-in-law know it’s time to step up his game…

I have two nephews who are on the “collecting” side of whisky’s. Last time I visited one of them he was in the 200+ bottle range. I like bourbon, but collecting is not my thing. Now collecting grills and smokers…..that’s something completely different.
