What's The Most You've Paid For A Bottle?

[DFSNOLE]

I am a fan of high rye and high proof bourbons. I have the means to get what I want within reason. "Within reason" is different for everyone including me and my wife. I have multiple bottles in my cabinet that are in the $150-$200 range and a couple more than that.

Right now, I'm on the lookout for a bottle of Little Book Edition 1 "The Infinite". The msrp is $200 with secondary markets selling it for double that. I'd probably be willing to go to $300-$350. My wife doesn't understand that at all. What would you be willing to pay for a single bottle?

That is a cool bottle. I don't think your price range is unreasonable at all. I have spent around $500 for a bottle a couple of times, though they were gifts. For myself, I have topped out around $300 for a bottle of Blanton's Gold for a special occasion.

It's been my experience that you can get just as drunk for a lot less money than that. 'Naw mean?

$20 for a bottle of Chardonnay maybe.

For my birthday around 15 years ago my wife obtained a bottle of a German dessert wine called Trockenbeerenauslese for $475. But that bottle was 375 ml. Really good wine.
