THANK YOU for saving me $100! I was contemplating on whether or not to get DP or a cheaper bottle of Moet et Chandon for my 20th birthday bash, but the idea of spending so much on something that's going to be pissed out later (or thrown up, depending on how much I drink that night LOL) is enough to make my wallet cry.

I was just about to say this! Honestly, Im not sure. Don't really drink any fancy liquor. It will probably be some nice bottle of scotch I procure for my party.

I guess I'm going against the tide here as I do think the Dom Perignon is well worth it. I personally do not like champagne in general, but Dom is da bomb! Bought my brother a bottle for his wedding, and they are now hooked as well.

DP is good but overpriced. If you want to pony up a good amount of

$ Schraumsberg "Iron Horse" is a better value IMHO.

Bowmore 30yo, the bottle runs about $300...
And Balvenie 30yo Cask Strength, runs about $500 a bottle...
Both were at a friends house. He is a bit of a collector of Scotch...

Would love to try the Bowmore Black Label 1964, but even finding it much less the cost is nearly impossible...

The $18 Casa Fuente Mojito I got a couple weeks ago is probably the most I've spent on a drink.

A friend did give me a finger of JW Blue a while back - loved it, but I'll never spend that kind of money on a bourbon. There's way too many more that are just as good for a whole lot less money.

I've had the Bowmore you are talking about (I didn't pay for it and didn't know I was drinking it till the bottle hit the table)..

The Bowmore Black is an exceptional find.. You will be slinging some serious duckets for that (if you find it). If your friend has it, invite me over!

I have seen it priced at $235-$250. My local had it for $169.00 and I have always wanted to buy one because the bottle is hand painted and the stuff is out of this world. It is hard to drink the regular Grand after having that.

Any friend of yours is a friend of mine!

I'm short on friends with a good scotch collection. Mine's OK, but nothing terribly exciting. (Well there is that one bottle...) I was spoiled though, I had a friend nearby that had a closet crammed full of scotch. And he was always happy to pour a few. Sadly he moved to England. *sigh*

Cool

Louis Tre, Pappy Van Winkle 23-year old. I could drink that Pappy everyday if I were Bill Gates (or even Rocky Patel).

I received a bottle of 1990 Dom P for christmas a few years ago. Just fantastic. Considerably better than what you'd get off the shelf for $130 these days, which would probably be the 1999. I'm glad I got to experience it, but I'd glady trade 4-5 bottles of White Star for one of these. White Star is fantastic for $50.

Other than a few champagne's, nothing else really pricey to report. Yet.

Since I am a wine geek I have had the pleasure of tasting some really special wines supplied by others at wine events but it is often hard to say what it "would have" cost. I was at an event last winter whereby a local wine collector brought a Ferreira Duque De Braganca Colheita Port 1900 (a rare tawny port). I had no idea of the cost and he was pouring generously so I was happy to take a splash. A gentleman in the group then informed me that the stuff goes for about $1200 per bottle - YIKES. Had to be the most expensive juice I have had. Sadly I would say that I was not really blown away!

I was once at a company holiday party, and a coworker called me over to the bar. Everyone had snifters full of about 1.5-2oz of GM 150. He handed me one, and then everyone save for me and one other guy took it like a shot. We proceeded to sip ours, and explain that the group had barely tasted a very nice glass of liquor. I imagine word got around about the guy who was ordering GM150 for the entire bar (it was on the company tab, but still poor form). I tried to be a bit more reasonable by drinking whatever red wine they were pouring early in the night, and ordering macallan 12 later.
