Never was a Scotch drinker. Funny how the pricing is different depending on your state isn't it? The few bottles of Scotch I've collected were more of a too limited/too cheap to pass up. Our state is selling the 16 for $94.

Here's a few more stores that ship (at least to me with zero problems), Again email them

Edit: You might see if any of them have reviews in Facebook. There were some others (not above) that I decided not to order from because of bad reviews, usually delays in shipping or problems getting a refund. Sometimes their inventory systems aren't updated in a timely manner.

these are my open bottles, can you believe I paid $75 for that Talisker18? Of course that was 14-15 years ago, I opened it the day closed on my house 2017.

I’ve got a couple others I can’t bring myself to open: Laphroaig 15 (bottle prior to the discontinuation in 2009) and a Talisker Game of Thrones which retails for crazy prices.

I sip scotch, I drink Rye and Bourbon

"Five years ago, the National Institutes of Health abruptly pulled the plug on an ambitious study about the health effects of moderate drinking. The reason: The trial’s principal scientist and officials from the federal agency’s own alcohol division had solicited $60 million for the research from alcohol manufacturers, a conflict of interest and a violation of federal policy."

I'm bad about doing this, one or two drinks out of the bottle and moving on to the next one. Remember to store your spirit bottles upright unlike wines. Higher proofs will destroy real cork.

thought about getting this:
