Costco - 19yr. Single Malt - Kirkland
Costco has a 19 year old single malt distilled by Macallan for $70.00. That sounds like quite a deal and was wondering if anyone has tried it and has tasting notes they'd like to share?

Re: Costco - 19yr. Single Malt - Kirkland
I know that if Costco puts the kirkland label on anything, they demand it exceed the quality of any product they would normally stock.

I imagine this should be some marvelous stuff. Almost bought some of their private label Vodka the other day, but got Svedka instead. I had to justify getting a big ass bottle of Dr. Bombay.

I go to the one in Waltham. I think Avon sells booze too. I just read a review on another forum and they really talked it up, considering that Macallan 18 year is about $125.00 and this stuff is $70.00!!!

I think the Kirkland vodka is made by Grey Goose. I have a feeling this scotch is going to be the deal of all deals. $70 is cheap for something of that age and distinction.

Re: Costco - 19yr. Single Malt - Kirkland
Thanks for the tip. IF the Kirkland is anywhere near as good as the MacCallan 18 yr, it would be a tremendous deal at $70.00!

Yeah, just refill your old MacCallan bottles so you can impress guests.

I've never seen Kirkland Scotch at Costco, though.

The label on the Kirkland scotch looks pretty impressive as is, not simple like their wines.

Re: Costco - 19yr. Single Malt - Kirkland
Antone manage to find anything out? It's in the costco over my way at £35... so equivalent to $70... is it worth the cash?

Re: Costco - 19yr. Single Malt - Kirkland
Can we mebbe get a picture? I'm curious as to whether it'll be worth driving an hour from home to get, and I'll need some reference picture to find it.

You gorillas are a bad influence on me. Just got back from Costco with my bottle. I am sampling it right now. Pretty good IMHO. It is smooth with a light floral/citrus note.

Hehe, the slippery slope for single malts also...I'm tempted to head towards the Waltham one next time too now
