I had decided to not buy anything new after my black friday purchases... but it is hard to resist
R1110 (with delivery) is not cheap

It's not, and I still want to order the Shiraz Cask

 

[ands45]

This is going to be a collectors item in a year. Their are guys selling to previous one for double the amount.
Not that I would sell this

Yip, this must be bought to be enjoyed, not to collect and sell

Is this a new release? I didn't see it coming...
From WB website:

A single cask release selected by and bottled exclusively for WhiskyBrother.

We are very proud to present our second Three Ships single cask, exclusive release, in collaboration with Andy Watts and his award-winning team at the distillery! Distilled in 2011, this peated single malt was initially matured for 3 years in American oak before being re-racked into a Pedro Ximénez cask for a further six years and bottled in 2020. Only 546 bottles were produced, each individually numbered. Bottled at a cask strength of 63.7%.

This just blew up on our WA group. I think we all bought about 20 bottles in 3 minutes....

Order placed. Thanks for the heads up!

Confirmed, 2 sets available

More, I ordered as well

OMW it sounds really interesting and 55.1% as well!

No way I'm paying R890 for a South African Whisky.

I was just googling for the Moscato and found this from a year ago

A friend picked up 1 in store about an hour ago and he was told that 150 bottle have been sold already

 

[klessius]

I couldn't resist and got myself two

Yes I totally take that back. In fact the 12yo will be the most I've ever paid for a bottle (so far) lol.

Not yet, hopefully soon...

This one, however, will stay on the collector’s shelf for a while:

 

[dualmeister]

Oh heck. There is yet another one coming. Salticrax for the rest of the year then

That is by far the most amazing label ever designed for a bottle of Whisky...and that INCLUDES all of CB's previous labels as well.

Crazy Tuesday pairing. Bourbon and Syrup Waffles.

Not sure if true, but someone (reliable) said that it is a Bains 10yo, but for travel retail only.
Let's see......
