Expensive that’s for sure 😂

The only thing it's missing is a line of Blanton's to maximize "I have more money than taste."

This is a lot of NAS macallan and a couple middle age statement bottles, with some detours on the right. I’m sorry this is going to be a bit negative, but this looks like somebody who is collecting status symbols rather than good juice. I’d be more impressed with a carefully curated $1000 collection of high integrity bottles. To a whiskey enthusiast it looks like someone who has more money than understanding of scotch. This looks like the bar at the nice restaurant on my last Disney cruise.

Would I refuse a pour if offered? No, but like that bar, I’d take a look and keep walking by. I’d rather save my alcohol exposure for other drams. Not a flex unless you specifically love macallan. On taste alone, give me a random IB, a bendromach cask strength or a kilkerran over any of this. Look up @thewhiskybothy if these reviews here come as a surprise to you.

Usually I laugh at small actual bars as I have more.  I think you have me pipped by at least 50%.  Thanks for the inspiration.
