Yes, prices on it now are crazy. Actually putting your hands on a bottle usually involves some kind of liquor store lottery.

Fortunately, I paid much less - around $90 for it in 2010, before the secondary market and social media made it highly-sought. It used to gather dust on shelves back then; I could usually catch it on sale between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I could've sold it at a serious mark-up later, but it's bourbon. You're supposed to drink it. :-)

When my current supply is gone, it's gone - no whiskey is worth those idiotic prices. For now, though, it's a nice pour to acknowledge important events.
