Description
🔗 Save $2,000 A Year On Whiskey With My Distiller Methods: https://wadecooperdistiller.com
Five Scotch brands are robbing you blind, and five are worth the money. Number one costs 46 dollars and 99 cents, and it might be the best money you spend on whisky all year.
Every robber on this list does one thing to you, one trick each, and you can find that trick on the label without ever opening the bottle: the name, the missing number, the color, the small bottle, and the water. Then the five worth the money answer them, trick for trick, at the same price or less. Number one is built from the same two woods as number ten, at the same age and the same strength, for 38 dollars less.
I spent 34 years in the industry on the making side of the bottle, mostly bourbon, and most Scotch spends its life in a used American bourbon barrel. No distillery paid for this video or sent me a free bottle, and there is no discount code. Every price you hear came off the Virginia state store list this week.
Your homework: next time you are in the store, walk to the Scotch and do not put a single bottle in the cart for the first five minutes. Pick up the most expensive bottle you would really buy and run the five checks on it: corner, percentage, number, color, back label. Then look one shelf down for the bottle built the same way. Then tell me in the comments what town you are in and what number one costs at your store this week.
