Agree, MCL pricing is crazy. Don't even look at any so called "specials" anymore. But also is the way the more premium stuff is going I suppose. Seems to jump in price every other month.

Also feel the distributors should step in more, see more and more retailers selling the limited bottles at secondary market prices. This shouldn't be allowed, a retailer selling Springbank 10 at ~R2500 or more is madness
That seems to be the way. And when they get on the market for R1250-R1400 its just blind luck if you get one. There we a few foing around a month or so ago from whisky brother but that lasted for minutes. R2500 is more than what the 15 should he selling for

30-year-old Irish whiskey sells for record-breaking $2.8 million
A rare bottle of whiskey — and all the luxury items that come with it — is now the most expensive ever sold.
The extremely rare bottle of The Emerald Isle was sold at auction to American whiskey collector Mike Daley for $2.8 million, beating out the previous record-setter by $100,000.

I find the classification of this sale as that of the most expensive Whisky, a bit hard to swallow.
All the extra bells and whistles really jacked up that price. I mean a Faberge egg ffs !!

Now next time guess what Im going to smell when I drink it- Tops In germiston. Not sure of the stores name- my brother picked it up for me. He took both - so that ship has sailed. But these little hamlet stores have bargains sometimesI must be the only one that does not like Eagle Rare.
It smells like car polish
But, still where is that? I know a few that would love some.
