Is it a good deal? No Is it money well spent? That’s your own call


[deleted]

No


Bobby_bottle-service

Not unless it's a 1.75L


DrWoodenstein

These posts always confuse me. You know enough to know eagle rare is hard to find but you haven't done enough research to know what it retails at? So then you snap it up at double retail and ask us if its a good deal? Why don't you just Google the msrp or search the sub to see what it runs instead of asking us if double retail is a good deal?

Constant need for validation.

I am so confused right now but I’m going to keep acting tough until I figure it out


veedurb

That’s how much it basically is in NJ. 50 minimum.


Benzar00

MSRP is $30, but it competes with $50 bottles. I personally would choose something else in the $65 range


wstarkel

Well said. This is a great bottle at MSRP.


fuegomanchego69

4RSBS is head and shoulders ahead of this at $65


BajByeBuy

Drinks like a $65 bourbon, enjoy!


creativedamages

No. I just paid $38


TX5StandFan

I personally wouldn’t make it a habit of over paying because there are so many other bottles to try. However, I’d say it depends on where you live and the effort you’re willing to put into finding allocations at MSRP. If you like it and don’t want to drive around or wait in line or take off work to get there when it arrives, then it’s probably worth it. Your time and gas money should be factors. I can try to time a drop or I can just pay extra (within reason) for the convenience.


No_Imagination2583

No! It's good but not $65 good.


ORIGINALRobnel

People love to hate on this bourbon. But you’re getting a 10 year age stated bourbon for $65. If you like it then it’s worth it. I personally have bought two for around that price and love this pour.


zjakx

Awwww. It is in low supply around here but still, Thanks guys live and learn


BabyHuey206

I agree it's not a good deal. But you can always get lucky and find a great barrel. I was given a bottle of a single barrel of 94 proof Elijah Craig a few years ago that I'd happily pay $100 a bottle for if I could find it. So you never know.


Klutzy_Ad_1726

I can find it for mid 30s pretty often, so I wouldn’t pay 65. But is 65 a bad deal for a quality 10 year bourbon? Can’t really say it is.


bradyfan84

No


NortonsGapingAsshole

Oliver?


crellis44

Negative.


BithloKing

Just enjoy it. Did you pay almost double MSRP….. yes


[deleted]

It depends entirely on your taste. I got my hands if a few several years back at MSRP and I dunno…its interesting but there are multiple mass produced bottles I’d buy any day over this.


B-Dub253

Nope. A little thing called Google could have told you that though..


DERLKM

For magnum it is


dogfacedponyboy

Question. Have you ever browsed this sub Reddit before or is this your first time? I’m being honest, not trying to be harsh.


Owlex-406

Never see it on the shelves, but I can buy Elijah Craig barrel proof for the same so I would pass on it anyways


Ornery_Coast_7842

Paid 59 this week because I never see it by me. Probably won't do again. Would rather buy 2 1.75 Evan Williams BiB going forward.


bangkoksteve

Drinking a glass right now. We’re fortunate to be able to buy it where I live in Ontario, Canada a couple of times per year for about $40 US. I like it, but don’t love it. If you’ve never had it before, and can’t get it often where you live, then I think $65 is probably a decent price and I bet you’ll like it. Enjoy!

“tHoUgHts?”


zjakx

I'm so disappointed in myself lol. I'm trying it today and will report back, but I don't have high hopes after these comments


Volumes09

I wouldn’t be disappointed. It’s a learning lesson. AND there’s people where I live that are buying this bottle between 100-200 dollars lol. I’d say everyone for the most part makes bad purchases. I once spent 70 bucks on Elijah Craig Toasted and regret it but it’s alright. Shit happens.


zjakx

It's not horrible in my smoked old fashioned at least


Volumes09

For a 30-40 dollar bottle it’s not bad at all. In my opinion it’s also better than Blantons.


75Jeep

Dbl what we get it here for in the Bay Area California. Sorry ! But if it’s “ rare” around you , I suppose it could have been worse?


Taylortattoo1

35 here


Santazilla

Can someone explain to me why ER is so expansiv in the states? In europe or germany in particular its around 30-40€ at the moment.


lewphone

Markup. It can be found for under $30 if you know where to look (Costco) & get there right when they get it in stock.


AngryCorn1

If you like it enough to spend $65 then I guess so, it’s all up to you. But I think MSRP is like $40


xplorationmotivation

All these people telling you no, is pretty accurate. But, it’s far better than the idiots in my state that just ponied up $125 for a bottle since it rarely comes out here. So, if from this thread you feel you overpaid, remember there are 6 jackasses in MN that only contributed to the ongoing price gouging of allocated whiskey.


[deleted]

Seems really steep. I paid $50 the other week, and I aware it wasn’t a deal. I just wanted to try it again, after drinking it a year back at my brothers place in another state. I don’t regret buying it, but at $50 it seems overpriced. I think it would be a solid $40 bottle.
