I would have liked to bottle a few liters beforehand for some hot Daiquiris :face_savoring_food:

By the way, Hedonism Wines also has some fine store picks:

I’d be interested in the Stagg and potentially the ER. Anyone else? Maybe group shipping would be worth it then.

Yeah, I’m in once at the Stagg and once at WL Weller CYPB – Hedonism Wines

Did you want to have the whole bottle of CYPB? Otherwise, I could imagine sharing it if I were to order. Otherwise, of course, the one for you.

I’ll try to calculate different quantities this evening (with all extra costs) so we’ll have a better idea of how expensive it will be.

I’m opening the bottle anyway, I’d be happy to start an FT then because I want to have the bottle at the bar :saluting_face:

Basically, those would be the two that would interest me as well.
But shipping isn’t really the issue for me—customs and import duties are definitely more of a concern here.

He’s definitely very nice too!

So if I’m doing a rough calculation, it’s close to 200€ for the Stagg. Without shipping and DHL fees but including taxes, etc.

That’s quite a lot. I didn’t notice at first that the UK tax had already been deducted from that Euro price.

Here are the costs (possibly not exact to the euro). Calculated for shipping 5 bottles to Germany.

@AntiSEBtisch, I’ll think about it until tomorrow, but leaning towards »unfortunately too expensive for me right now«.

Bottle Alcohol % Cost GPD Cost EUR Spirits Tax VAT Spirits Tax VAT Bottle Total Shipping DHL Costs Total Bottle Price
Stagg 66.5 € 158.95 € 6.07 € 1.15 € 31.69 € 197.86 € 7.86 € 2.98 € 208.70
1792 12y Bourbon 48.3 € 70.95 € 4.41 € 0.84 € 14.97 € 91.17 € 7.86 € 2.98 € 102.00
WL Weller CYPB 47.5 € 193.95 € 4.33 € 0.82 € 38.34 € 237.45 € 7.86 € 2.98 € 248.29

I was afraid of that. I gotta try that when I have a quiet moment.

Bottles are sold out anyway :zany_face:

Pretty good stuff. But the price is too steep for me.

@AntiSEBtisch, on second thought, it’s just too expensive for me. I just got your Willett Rye #2611 and a Maker’s Mark. Plus a Weller 12, and that should be enough for now. My stock is still well stocked anyway.

If you order anyway, I’d definitely be interested in a sample though.

Works for me! I’ll be in Kentucky again in November, so I’ll definitely find something exciting for a FT :call_me_hand:

Same here, it’s interesting, but it doesn’t really fit right now :+1:
