Let’s take a look at this $10,000 bottle of Double Eagle Rare. There’s no way I can taste this bottle considering we only have 1, but compared to other ultra luxury offerings, I think this bottling steps up more than any others. For one, it’s a great liquid at an age and proof worthy of the price point, but the presentation of the bottle, the glass blown eagle in the bottom as well as the glass decanter on top really set this a part. The last few years the Eagle Rare 17s at 101 proof have been some of the best and rarest of the BTAC collection. When you think a 20yr Bourbon is equivalent to a 40yr scotch and that MANY of those vintage dated scotch whiskies go for tens of thousands of dollars and are generally meant for collectors, a bottle like this is not out of the realm of what other like items in the market have fetched. That’s not to say it’s a bit much for the bourbon crowd who isn’t used to seeing prices like this, but I think overall the presentation, for those with the means, is worth the price of admission.
