What's the place on 77 near Carowinds? Something MacDoogles? I haven't been but have heard the pricing is good and selection is huge.thanks Steve....i usually go to 'Southern Spirits' in Fort Mill, SC to get my liquor and a couple of the guys that work there seem to know their stuff...i might get them to make up a 'sampler pack' of mini bottles of finer bourbons/whiskeys as a Christmas present to myself.......

Did you know that Pappy 23yo starts with 53 gallons and 23 years later, you are left with just 14 gallons, a 74% loss to the bourbon gods, they in return ad in the magic flavors...

Mike I did not know that. I think I paid $60 / $70 for the bottle. Funny thing, my dad didn't like the taste. He said it was to foo foo. He loved his Jack and VA Gentleman. I even named my second boat VA Gent.
'Expensive tastes'....hmmm, what does supply and hype taste like?That price is UNREAL! A shot of 23yo Pappy costs that much.
I find that most folks break down into two primary slots, those who found a flavor they like and that is what they like, and those that find tasting to be exploring. I have quit trying to get the former to try expensive tastes, as they only like what they like and no matter how good something is, it is not what they like.

I have had a very small taste. It was at a bourbon tasting we had down at the boat club so I cannot truly tell you if the flavor justifies the cost. I would like two fingers on a Friday afternoon and sip the whole thing and then tell you.Anyone, besides Dwna1a, here had Pappy Van Winkle? It is on my list to try someday.

Vodka- Yacht Club
Our Costco brand spirits come in larger bottles that do not fit vertical in our coolers, to frustrating gave up.
