My Whiskey

So I posted this at the beginning of January in my personal blog - but figured I'd post it here as well... A few bottles are gone - and a few new bottles have been added to the collection.

I'm also looking for a few bottles - specifically Pappy Van Winkle 15yr and the Pappy Van Winkle Rye. If anyone happens to have one of these and are willing to part with it - let me know - we can work out a trade or something...

So I decided to take all the whiskey I had and count up the bottles and see how much they are worth... I counted the full retail value, even for open bottles, and and found the prices on http://www.bevmo.com/, http://www.hitimewine.com/ or other retail sites. For the items that are no longer available I used ebay as a guide (those items are marked with an *). Including all of the signed bottles, it is around $4000 worth of whiskey (mostly bourbon).

If anyone is interested in partaking just let me know and come on over!

Here is the list with the pricing.
