I’d drink it too. I’d hate to have the last image in my mind as my truck hurdles off the cliff being my brother in law mixing it with Doctor Pepper at my wake.

Although, it may make your final moments seem like years?

“mixing it with Doctor Pepper”

I tried mixing bourbon and Dr. Pepper one time. My father said, “you’ve just ruined two shots of bourbon and a Dr. Pepper”. He was right.

I have a rare bottle of Pappy Van Winkle that increased in value faster than I would have thought possible.

Was going to finally crack it open to celebrate Trumps 2020 win…

Still I original packaging. Highest rated whiskey ever.

“My father said, “you’ve just ruined two shots of bourbon and a Dr. Pepper”. He was right.”

But a shot of whiskey in a large cup of coffee in the evening, that’s good!

Whiskey can only get so smooth.

Silly? It sounds like he did right by the whiskey. Saved it for special occasions, but savored it every time. Sounds about right, to me.

So he didn't drink a $100,000 bottle of whiskey, he drank a $75 dollar bottle of whiskey that had he not drank it would be worth $100,000 today.

And if I hadn't played with my first generation Hot Wheels cars and kept my original G.I. Joe action figures (no, they're NOT dolls!) including a Jeep with a recoilless rifle in the bed and matching trailer with a searchlight in the packages when I was 7 years old, they'd be worth tens of thousands of dollars as well.

(O.K., maybe a couple of hundred Dollars anyway...)

Lol. I scored a much lesser (but still elusive for some reason) Blanton’s and gave it to my frat boy nephew for his 21st bday. He felt special and said he and his friends enjoyed it. From the freezer.

I once got to try a 1915 Macallan Scotch and it was okay. The Balcones Pot Still Bourbon is much smoother and much more flavorful.

I can’t imagine that even a great whisky/whiskey would be worth $100,000. I’m content with a good one for $100 or so.

Have you tried it before, is it worth the hype?
