100 Best Bourbon Whiskeys? How many are there for sale? I have a limited choice because of the PA State Store System, but even going over to NJ where some of the liquor stores are gigantic, there aren't 100 bourbons.
With #100=$34, #75=$227, #50=$229, #25=$2500, #1=$22999 who in hell is buying this stuff? Well, I suppose in hell they'd really appreciate it. LoL

Go xoBruce! Yes. It sucks to buy anything. While I doubt everything experienced by that writer all happened on the same day, I have no doubt all of it was experienced over the course of say 1 week. Shopping, online or otherwise has become one royal P.I.T.A. And I too can go to my local beverage store where there will be +/- 50 bourbons and not find a single one of the 'top 100'. Same can be said of the craft beers. Not that I'll ever spend over $60 for a bourbon or $17 for a can of beer. There are so many great craft beers in Maine, there's no single store that carries them all.

Nice new category Miss C. Don't do away with the miscellaneous one though.
