As stated above was thinking about getting a bottle of louis xiii for a little present to myself was reading online of people paying stupid amounts for shots of the stuff.Not sure if there was any interest in this, but was thinking maybe like $75-100 a shot if you really wanted to try it but didn’t want to pay $150+ a shot. let me know and this thread will probably get interesting D ---

Think 150$ a shot is bad? I read in stuff magazine that some hotel in London serves up 1.5oz shots of a 217 year old bottle of I think some type of rum for 5,000$ a pop. ---

each bottle has a dilluted tear from chuck norris. fyi. I’m not a big Cognac/Brandy connoisseur, so i didn’t get the full appreciation for Louis Xiii. It was nice, but i can’t say it’s better then a $150 bottle of Cognac. ---

I had a “shot” of it for my birthday this past April; I won a bet at a bar with a rich friend of mine (name and price of bottles behind the bar); so she bought us both a shot for my birthday. Yummy stuff, that’s for sure. Worth the $120/shot that she paid; hell I didn’t may for it 😛 ---
