Last few Kirkland branded single malt bottled by Alexander Murray have been horrible Sherry bombs. Age is not the only factor of determination in single malt finish. I'll try a bottle this time since it's at decent 46% ABV and not watered down to 40%.

The reason why Kirkland via AM is selling at these prices is due the over use/maturation in Sherry Casks which sort of negates the actual good finish on the palate. These are NOT Macallan casks because Macallan had a fire in their distillery last year and their production/supply itself has been low. Actually it is hard to find Macallan 12 Sherry Cask throughout last year. These must be from casks sold by defunct distilleries or from the larger ones which don't meet their actual branded standards. Some of my favorites below:

Macallan Sherry Cask 12
Oban 14
Lagavulin 16
Balvenie 12
Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban 14
Ardbeg 10
Bowmore 15
Glenlivet 15
Glenfiddich 18

Quote from Mornsd1 :
You know scotch doesn't age after it's taken out of the cask, right? It's not like wine.

Once it's in the bottle, it stays whatever age it was when taken out of the cask.

A 10 year aged bottle from 1902 is still a 10 year aged bottle in 2023.
Oh well. It's still going to be good then.

Pretty sure they had this at the 4th Ave Seattle Costco a few days ago.
Was a higher price due to the highest liquor tax in the US.

This thing is amazing! Better than Johnny blue and some of the other scotches out there. It's a single malt, the flavor and nose are amazing. I still have one bottle left and I will be picking up a few more to store.
You're comparing johnnie a blended scotch to a single malt?

Not in Atlanta for anyone that might be interested here.

Went to what I believe is the single Costco with a liquor store (Perimeter) today and they don't have it now, nor have they ever according to the manager.

I bought this at the DC Costco on Valentines Day. I don't have a super refined scotch pallet but wasn't wowed by this offering. YMMV but generally all Kirkland-branded impulse buys release those borderline SD price mist@kes endorphins and this one just released buyers remorse.
Anyone else try it and have anything to say about it?

Just about a full pallet around 5PM at the Newark/Christiana DE store.

Common belief is that the distillery is either Macallan or Aberlour.
Quote from ryunohadouken :
It's definitely Macallan

Distillery is Tullibardine.

I purchased this same bottle years ago on a similar deal. Let's just say it has aged another three years since I bought it. Not a comment on the quality of this bottle, but I am just more of a highland and islay fan myself. It is damn smooth though.

Oddly enough they had this on the shelf at my local Costco yesterday, like it was a standard stock item. I thought they'd have a pallet just kicking on the floor.
