That was on my list?!?
It should run you only $300 a shot unless you really got ripped off.
It's funny you are quoting pretty much the highest price tequlia outside special bottles in the world now.
If you paid $450/shot and actually bought two of them, you paid about 50% too high and basically for half that bottle.
Did you even read my story? I paid $0.
I was under the impression that you paid $0 after the fact.
Still if that was what they served you they must have been exaggerating the price or ripping people off.
That's a rare bottle to find at most bars though.
Yeah but its probably the restaurant charging more because they can.
Anyways you're not supposed to shot something like that even if they pour it like that. Sip on it. You just spent half a grand on 1.5 oz of liquor.
$300 is considered the fair price already, to charge $450 is ripping people off. There are about 17 shots in a 750ml bottle. That would work out to about $5k for that which goes for $1800-2300 on the street, at $450 that is more than 3x that bottle's value and very excessive for that price point.
If you order it as a shot, then it's not to be sipped. As for it in a glass or something like what's shown in the link you provided.
Expensive alcohols do get done in shots though and if ordered as a shot then expected to done as one.
Of course, this is just basic bar rule stuff and if one wanted to eat a T-Bone steak with a spoon, they could do so legally.
Meh considering places will charge you $200 for a bottle of Skyy vodka that retails for $15-20 where they even get lower at wholesale prices, I don't see it that far of a stretch.
This is why my cheap friends walk into bars preloaded from booze in the car. Actually my cheap cheap friends buy cheap liquor and drink at home.

It's perfectly acceptable to sip expensive scotch from a shot glass. A Scotsman I know who is bonkers over scotch will pour us shots and he'll tell us to sip slow and enjoy all of the different flavors.
Cheap friends buy liquor and drink at home. "Cheap Cheap" friends go to somebody else's home and drink their liquor.
We used to do this when we were 15-16. Just out of cost. I would buy drinks though as unlike many of my friends I had a couple good jobs.
Sometimes we'd go back to the car and drink out of the trunk.
That all stopped around when I was 21.
Not sure how being Scottish makes a difference. Do all Americans know how to properly sear a steak?
If you are going to sip a drink, a shot glass is not the right vessel.
Yes it's called Pregamingyou get buzzed before getting buzzed?
The guy is 75 and traditional, born and grew up in Scotland. It's ok to sip fine scotch from a shot glass if he says so.
Someone pours some booze you want to sip into a shot glass and you go oh no now I can't sip it? Seems insipid.
