Snow Pheonix
125th
1987 vintage reserve (if you've got a lazy $1200 in your back pocket).
Cask of Dreams

I picked up two bottles of snow phoenix when it came out a few years back. One is still unopened in its little case. Whats it worth now?

If you have a genuine liquor licence then probably around the $350 mark, but only if the people on eBay get stupid.

Privately selling on the hush hush

, you'd be getting a solid $250, but that's no tax or GST, just straight cash.

My SP cost $160 AUD but I had to get my aunt to courier it from the UK because I was late to the party.

My philosophy too, Work Horse. Whiskey is for drinking not collecting!

Seen that today I was going to get it until the missus walked in lol maybe next week but I did manage to buy this to try tonight

Stefan · 28-11-2013, 09:44 PM

This should be called whiskey collectors, not whiskey lovers.

Surly this exxy stuff is not for drinking? Or is it?

Anyway being new the whisky scene I bought a bottle of Canadian Club and it's a nice drop indeed and now well and truly on my drinking list.

I just got a text from Jim beam saying I won a Jim beam arcade cooler valued at $250.00 woo hoo I forget I even entered the comp. now I just need to wait for a letter telling me how to claim my prize

SM1DY · 29-11-2013, 08:41 PM

I'm waiting for Jim Beam to tell me when I can pick these up

Nice pick-up tregs ;)

tregs · 29-11-2013, 08:50 PM

Oh nice when do the come out ?

SM1DY · 29-11-2013, 09:17 PM

I wish I could tell you, but I've contacted a guy who gets me quite a few bottles, he has a liquor store that also sells online and he's on the hunt for info for me. I'll give the site a plug when they get them, but until then they don't deserve it.

Found it - Dan Murphys, anyone have it cheaper?

SM1DY · 03-12-2013, 11:05 PM

How does $119.99 sound?

Jack960 · 04-12-2013, 01:25 AM

I do love my Whiskey. However, I can never start a collection because I drink it faster then I get it :/

OK bought the Xmas whisky, Glenlivet 12 year old single malt.

Being a whisky newbie I can't say I have tried a single malt before. So I'll report back in a couple of weeks of my newbie assessment.

Chivas is kind of my fave so not sure if this will be better.

tregs · 04-12-2013, 11:08 PM

That's a good starting point so is a glenfiddich 12yr old

tregs · 06-12-2013, 11:59 AM

Nice catch tregs, I thought that was a distillery release only, glad I'm wrong. Also, word on the grape vine is that Q1 next year we will see Jack Daniels Sinatra for $170 in the country. Beats $400 on eBay.
