Good video. I like the format of trying two bottles blind, then jumping into the review.

Appreciate your proper use of crescendo 😁 A really good point of ignorance is bliss. I know what I like from what I can find on the shelf. As a casual enthusiast I don’t know what I’m missing in bottles that are rare and cost hundreds.

Great review. I was able to try the HH17 a couple of times at restaurants, so there is hope - a lot of restaurants/bars should get this.

Nobody -- nobody -- is wondering if it's worth it for $300. We're wondering if it's worth it for $1200.

OK but my point is nobody is looking at this bottle at MSRP and thinking "hmm is it worth it?" -- they will fly off the shelf immediately at $300 or stores will have them marked all the way up. HH17 goes for $1100+. So, that's the question.
@takashiemota978411 ай бұрын
@@llamabones Hype will always raise the price over MSRP. Fomo will also do this. It is not worth the price at $1200. The $300 price is what the company says its worth, the time and one time release for that year also plays a part in the base price. Would I pay if I saw it at MSRP watching this informative video? No Why no? Because my bank account says so. What if a bar had it? 2 ounce pour for $45ish dollars for a taste. Thats as close as I'll get to this nectar.

I work for HH and A124 just doesn’t get the love it deserves. C9 is really good but I like the softer subtle fruit side of get from A1. C9 was bolder but A1 hits nice right before spring.
@nickp551111 ай бұрын
The ECBP A124 is a really nice pour! The age is not an issue for me:) store owner friend let me have it at cost for 55.00 The HH 17 or 18 is out of reach. Store owner friend has them for 1,300.00 and a 1,500.00 and my best price from him is 1,000.00 and 1,200.00 so not a chance:( Cheers!
