That's a cool bottle. Bourbon's not bad either.

I haven't seen it around anywhere. Do you know if someone in town has it stocked?

I heard Champagne's in the Oil Center has it, but they've packaged it with some other stuff like a gift pack and are charging stupid money for it.

Down here, if you do find it, you pay way too much for it. I found it on the shelf in MA last summer for $55. If you pay more than $65, you're being ripped off.

I have a friend who can make a lamp out of them.

Believe it or not Phillipes wine cellar on ambassador caffery has a pretty eclectic but not extensive selection of spirits. Brandy, cognac, scotch, bourbon, tequila and vodka. Oh yeah wine too. Not wine snobs they will help you out.

Found a bottle in Covington. Haven't found any in Lafayette. Will check out Champagnes per J's post above. That stuff is smooth.

One thing the guys on the "whiskey tribe " preach is to be responsible. By the end of some of their videos you can tell they are a little tipsy. Given their position in their business they obstain from all alcoholic beverages for one week a month. That way they can tell if they are becoming dependent.

Hell, that would be a real challenge!!

I second the selection at Nunu's! That goes for craft beer as well.

Unfortunately for some of our local stores, but good for some of us they are opening a Total Wine & more on Ambassador. When I was living on the left coast they typically had the best prices and you could find just about anything. Basically the wal-mart of alcohol, similar to a Bevmo but better prices.

$200 to $260 online.

Is that the norm?
