Overpriced?
Or a reflection of the current market? |

| Grabbed the 28 yo and the 24 yo from Loch Fyne, maybe will get one more for the collection, I do like a Glendronach single cask release. |

Just entered Green Welly ballot in hope of a 25, 27 or 28 year old. I've got mixed success with ballot bottles but is the fairest way. Fingers crossed.
Nearly missed out on the Glendronach 1991 25 year old Kingsman, took me 10 days of hard work to track one down. Good decision Whisky Galore @Green Welly Stop.
Spoke to one indi whisky shop who had not been given allocation of this, to their great annoyance. Pretty poor that small loyal whisky shops aren't being given a bottle or 2 yet bigger companies get larger allocations. |

Just spoken to one retailer who will only sell me the whole set for £4k.
By my reckoning the rrp for the set would be £3324.
Now, I appreciate the rrp is "recommended" but I think this is pure greed.
And not as bad as another retailer I know who I suspect has stock but won't even put them on the shelf for 6/12 months at an inflated price. I'll be watching!
Rant over! |

| Scotch whisky experience is taking reservations on these for anyone who is local in Edinburgh and will hold the bottles for 24 hours, I’ve set aside two and they still had some when I spoke to them about an hour ago. |
