😂 Thank you 😂
Anywhere else?
Dublin Duty Free 😜.
Anyone aware of any of the 2022 available anywhere? (other than Shannon Duty free!)
You could try out a pack like this to let you know if it’s worth it or not. Won’t be the same Whiskey but similar styles

It is indeed. I'd hold on to it if I were you, I had no interest in whiskey when I came into possession of my grandfathers whiskey bottles, and had an idea to sell them at some stage so they are still sitting here unopened (he passed away nearly 15 years ago).
I didn't sell for sentimental reasons at the time, always seemed to soon, but now that I've been educating my palette for a few years (hard work but someone has to do it!) I think I will open them some day and enjoy/reminisce with some others in the family who appreciate whiskey. With three small children, you've a few milestones in life ahead hopefully with the opportunity to share that bottle.
Do a few whiskey tastings would be my advice, so you can enjoy it if/when you do open it.
Indeed, but I don't think recent vintages will have anything like that increase due to the vast number of collectors!
Cheers all for the sound advice.
Increasing in value 3-4 fold in 10 years is a pretty sound investment all the same.
It will hold indefinitely in the sealed bottle, neither improving or getting worse.
That vintage will probably continue to increase in value as it is from before the current trend of collecting this whiskey started.
Sell it at auction and buy something else you like to drink.
At this months Irish Whiskey Auction it went for €620-770 a bottle.
Saw this thread trending on the main page - which reminded me of a (2013) bottle of this I got as a wedding present - which has sat in its box on a shelf ever since.
I had planned to have a glass to mark special occasions but 3 kids and almost 10 years later it remains untouched!
Is this something that maintains its value/quality over time or does a time come where I should either drink it or sell it?
As you can tell I’m not a whiskey aficionado 😉
Stock levels as of about 3 minutes ago
Had a few people message me, I'm fairly clueless about the posting of alcohol through An Post.
Could someone clarify the rules on it?
I'd be interested in one!
Based in Dublin
Well, pretty local in Irish terms - Galway
It offered an option to buy mvr'23 when released... Basically, they would reserve a bottle for you, so you are guaranteed to be able to buy one.
Are you local? Not sure how postage would work.
It's priced at €220.
I'd be interested, tried Dunnes, Suoervalu etc but never even makes the shelf. Missed the website sale with the fiasco in recent weeks also.
I work in Shannon Airport and there was 20+ bottles sitting on the shelves today
You’ll always have a few looking I’d say. I managed to get one. Are you selling it RRP?
Are people looking for the 2022? I have access to a lot through work if people want.
Dunnes Off licence Jetland Limerick got a delivery of seemingly 22 (-1 at least now) this morning.
Wasn;t hunting, pure coincidence, they are being stored in managers office....
Cheers. I signed up to it a few weeks back. Have got the welcome gift but think my first drop will be Q4
Only when I open the box unless someone gets a delivery before me and puts it on facebook ! IDL do teasers etc beforehand but do not announce in advance. My opinion is based on recent shipments.
Do you know what the bottles are in advance or just from what you’ve received so far?
I didn't. There will be an offer of a 2023 to people who renewed after the first 12 months. The second years bottles (IMO) are more interesting.
I believe they got first refusal to midleton very rare 2022. But other then that no, 3 samples are included in each set also.
Noticed a lot more people selling the sets on for profit recently. Hopefully doesn't meant a price increase from midleton.
You get some 50ml samples each time too. People seem to think it's work it. I know I would have really enjoyed the John's Lane cask strength they had recently.
"Does it include any early access to sales of newly released limited editions also?"
No....It does not. (to date anyway).
Not that I know of, may depend more on the relationship you have with people there. Happy to be proven wrong though.
