id do it but its the bottle thats worth the money. if the bottle is worth 1200 on ebay, it makes the liquor inside worth only 300. so a shot would relatively go for only about ~25 bucks.

And no… Blue label ($220, $78 - $100 for AAFES members lol) is 20-30 bucks… And this is certainly not something you just open for a shot…

It’s $1500/bottle first off, out of the greed of the producer, importer, wholesaler and retailer. Secondly because of the rarity of the product; Remy Martin Louis XIII is a blended grand cru cognac that is made from cognacs dating back to the 1730’s. Remy Martin just bottled some from the first barreling and are selling it under the name Louis XIII Black Pearl at $8-10,000/bottle.
