I was at Norfolk Wine & Spirits, Norfolk MA and saw this on sale. It was $30 marked down from $60. This is MGP's newly created brand. It's excellent. I went back and bought two more Saturday, stumbled upon a tasting and the owner came over because I hadn't seen him in awhile. Agreed the price was crazy. If you live local, it's an amazing store with frequent tastings, great store picks and a huge Scotch inventory (also now lots of rum and mezcal).

Any suggestions for a top shelf anejo tequila?
I am aware of Don Julio 1942 and know it tastes great.
It’s a gift for a good friend and a top shelf 18 month anejo is something he would appreciate.
I'm okay going up to about $250-$300 if it's worth it

Yikes. Don’t do that. Forelaza Anejo. Probably $100 even. Best stuff there is really. The Reposado is really nice. G4 is also very good. Either one will be a very good choice. Don Julio is marketing

Thanks. Looks like scarcity can affect pricing for Fortaleza. I'll look for a bottle. Any other suggestions?

Wow. Those are ridiculous prices. Did you look at local shops? I may need to hoard my unopened Fortaleza Reposado. The tariffs are probably causing people to jack up prices even though the stuff on shelves wasn't subject to it.

Those online shops you checked all seem to charge well over retail. Are you shipping it?
For Whiskey and Mezcal this site is good. SharedPour.com

Looks like I need to go buy some Tequilla and Mezcal.
