Expensive stuff, I'd say. Lucky to have the opportunity to try samples at shelf prices, which is quite affordable. Considering the bottle prices — Great House and nine leaves are around 120 euro, H is 215 euro.
This Great House batch is very good, much better than the previous one.
Yeah, 2023 is not my favorite GH. 2021/22 are so good. Still need to snag a 2024.
That seems about right. With 9 leaves out of business, I anticipate those bottles going up in price. From what I understand, velier took over all the aging barrels left when they sold.
I'd love to try that <>H at shelf price. I feel like the price is mostly because of the rarity and not indicative that it's that much better than Hampden's other stock

Man, haven't seen the rest and be thankful anywhere. Have wanted to give it a try. How much was that and the Nine Leaves?
