10 year Rip Van Winkle

[mrlawler1]

What's a good price for this stuff per bottle... Nothing too old this would be a newer bottle...

[Transom]

I think that stuff is like $70-80 a bottle but is never in stock. Alabama beverage control publishes a price list.

I just checked and could not find this one on the list although I have seen it in the past. They have pappy 10 year listed but not old rip.

10 year msrp is $69.99. You will never find it for that. I’ve seen it priced anywhere from $899 to $1199. No way I would pay that much for any bourbon much less that bottle. I would think $300-$350 would be fair.

No such thing as Pappy 10. Pappy comes 15,20 and 23 year old. The 10 and 12 are Old Rip Van winkle and Van Winkle. The Van winkle rye is a 13 year.

You may be correct but this is how they have them listed. If you are correct that means the answer to the OPs question is below.

Got a bottle located for $800...last I've seen was anywhere from 800-1200 for the 10 year Van Winkle...the 23 year pappy's can be had for more than I paid for my last pickup now...

If you can get one for under $600 on the secondary market you are doing well. Honestly, if it is a gift try and get some Weller (any flavor) which is usually easier to find and far better. I had a bottle of 10 & 12 Van Winkle and turned down 2k for the 2 bottles and regretted it once I sat down to drink them. They were ok, but not even close to the hype and I have had Pappy of all ages so it wan't my first rodeo with Pappy

I can buy a 12 for $500 in trade value. Can get a Weller 12 for $150. Pretty much the same thing.

Same mash build, not same aging, but Weller is very good. Used to be a $30 Bottle.

It’s all over priced now, like boats.

Markers Mark cask strength for $45 is tough to beat.

AFTER 4 drinks JIM BEAN is just as good !!

Yep. Don’t sleep on Knob Creek 12. It’s a damn fine pour. Sippin on some as I type this.

[juice780]

I wouldn’t pay over $100 for it.

I just saw a bottle this morning at Liquor Expo off Hwy5 south of Yreka Ca. 10yr VW was 1,000 bucks. 15yr VW was 2,500. George T Stagg 1,800. Bought two bottles of Blantons for $79 each which is the lowest price I’ve seen out here in 10 years.

I’ve never paid over $79 for Blanton’s. Not worth it IMO at more than that. GTS msrp is $99 but you will never pay that unless you win a raffle. GTS is a great bottle IMO and to me $300 is a fair price. I’ve bought several bottles at that price.

[juice780]

There are a lot of states that are not allowed to sell above msrp but you don’t see good stuff on the self very often.

The last Time I bought some it was 600
On the Net it's 800-1000
I also bought 12 year at 650

All in All
It's good Bourbon, But not even close to 600 a bottle
I'd buy the EH Talyor, Small batch goes for up to 139, Single barrel is up to 279
But both can be found for less
