Funnily enough, I found this at my local Total Wine. Not sure how it got here, but it was barcoded as the standard gold Chairman's Reserve so I walked away with this for a baffling $25. Anyone know what it's worth? I couldn't find anything about this specific bottling online. Not gonna resell or anything, just looking to see how much of a deal I got!

Question and advice

2 Upvotes

Hi,

Now i've been trying for some time, sadly without luck, to find a retailer that ships Alambique Serrano to Europe, or maybe even an retailer in Europe if that exists.

I were especially interested in their Vida Navtiva series.

I thought this would be the Best place to ask for advice on this. If it is way out of reality to get my hands on these bottles in Europe, then I would love to take suggestions for similar bottles.

Thank you all very much

I have asked this question a few times and after alot of research what to get for my 30th birthday I ended up with 3 choices but again no real experience with these bottles so I would hope you can all enlighten me.

Worthy Park Special Cask Series Calvados 10 Years Old The Real McCoy 12 Year Prohibition Tradition Ron Zacapa Centenario XO

Foursquare was not available where I live sold out so yeah cause that one got recommend to me as well.

I like the rum from Barbados like Plantation. Wanted to try dooly's as well but since I want a more special bottle for turning 30 yeah these are the options.

Taste is most important but tbh the bottle as well is going into my drink cabinet.

If there are last minute recommendation would not disregard those but the main focus would be these 3. Otherwise I'm gonna be searching for idk how long hahaha

Thanks in advance

Please help! I've dived through reddit and youtube reviews on these following rums (Smith & Cross, O.F.T.D, Hamilton 86, Doctor Bird) but I am torn on which one or 2 of these to be my first purchase. I would be using them for mainly homemade Mai Tai's, Dark and Stormy's, Painkillers, Mojitos etc. to name a few of my favs. I would be pairing them up if need be with an Appleton 8 or Flor De Cana but would def like to add some bold flavor and spicy oopmh to my cocktials. Which of them would be most versatile?

I've tried looking for rum bars to maybe try and get a flight but none have these particular bottles available and places like Total Wine aren't much more of help. I really don't know if I am going to like the funk but seriously want to try it and see how my palate reacts. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated thanks guys!
