Any good black friday whisky specials?

I'm still looking for any

 

[WholesomeGuy]

Lots of El Cheapos. But nothing worthwhile... Anybody tasted this before? Bought 2 bottles thought I'd give it a try. If it fails - well I'm feeling a bit Crappie with my Crabbie but will survive...


This is from Norman Goodfellas Black friday sale.

How did you find 2022-2, compared to previous releases? Based on reviews I read its quite a bit sweeter.

Have you done a side by side of bakers between the old and new bottling?

 

[ands45]

Don't think I'll buy one, maybe will wait for the reviews first

 

[dualmeister]

Ja will give it some time and see. Fscking rookie mistake.

Double check with MyBB next time for feedback before ordering
Glad you got your money back

So you got your money back at least? Just curious, did you get any communication from them after you ordered

I received an order confirmation from Mega Appliances for the Jagermeister i ordered. Nothing after that.
Then I tried to dispute the transaction via FNB and they said I must take it up with payfast. Payfast said I should take it up with the merchant. WTF?

Then out of the blue, I received a refund notification from payfast without logging an official dispute. And the money is back in my card.

Dodged one there.

 

[TheMightyQuin]

This arrived yesterday after quite a long search and I opened it as soon as I could.

And it is REALLY excellent...very different and the best special release since Blaaaack.

 

[dualmeister]

The 7th Masters release.

And how is it? Generally not a fan of wine cask finished whiskies but I've only tried red wine cask finished whisky.
