Entry price is now 100€ when it swear it used to be 50€ 10 years ago
Trumps economy. Trump IS your president.
>>21593008It's $60 US. It shouldn't be double price in Europe.
>>21593013Bullshit
>>21593008macallan has always been overpriced. Its good but its not worth the money.
Over the last decade they've positioned themselves as the "premium" scotch, and priced it accordingly. It's priced that way to be more attractive to snobs.
>>21593021My local pricing
>>21593015That is the sherry cask, dumbass. The one OP posted is this:https://www.totalwine.com/spirits/scotch/single-malt/macallan-12-yr-double-cask-single-malt-scotch/p/170925750
>>21593022They were already seen as premium when i started drinking 20 years ago
>>21593025Nvm. Then why did it become so expensive in europe? Maybe because brexit happened?
>>21593026Yes but they at least used to hover at the high end of age statement pricing, now they blow most others out of the water, who else sells a $450+ 18 year?Glenfiddich 18 is $140Hell you can buy glenfiddich 21/23 for over $100-200 cheaper than the Macallan 18.Glenlivet 21, Balvenie 2, Glen Moray 21, Glenmorangie signet, etc. All cheaper than Macallan 18.
>>21593037>Balvenie 221
>>21593008They doubled the price of everything, where have you been? Inflation has been going crazy. We lost a good 40% of our spending power in just 2 years during covid. Inflation has continued and we’ve lost a good 60% of it by now. Eventually we will see Weimar levels of inflation and WW3 will arrive. Fiat is proving to be a very short term store of wealth
>>21593028Inflation It’s the consultants that tell the companies to raise their prices
>>21593070it's not inflation.Macallan 18 was ~$200 in 2010Going by inflation, it should cost ~$300 today, but instead it's $450-500.Glenfiddich 18 was ~$70-80 in 2010Going by inflation, it should cost ~$120 today, it currently sells for ~$130-140. Macallan has very clearly gone up far more than most other scotches in the same period of time.
