When I tended bar for Hilton 6 years ago Glenmorangie 18 was $26 for a single and $39 for a double.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

You are doing it all wrong.
If I am gonna be spending that type of money on drinks, might as well go to your local Gentleman's CLub and VIP upstairs and have the finest........

It's scotch. I rather get three fingers of Pappy Van Winkle.
coffee spelled backwards is eeffoc. I don't give eeffoc until I have my morning coffee.

The rule at most bars is 20% cost on liquor. Hotels want about 15% cost. A fifth of Scotch has 17, 1.5oz pours in it. Figure for a $100 bottle of Scotch.
100/.15= $666.67 $666.67/17= $39.20
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

You have to be a little more specific, a local resturant has four different Glenmorangie bottlings. What most people think of first is the Glenmorangie 18 at $24 a shot so $36 for 1 1/2 oz pours. The most expensive on the list is Macallen 25 at $70 an oz. although they always have a few bottles of rarer Scotch.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

Resident moved out of my property when I was a maintenance guy and left a new bottle of 13 yr(I think) Glenlevits. I tried to sip it. Then I went and bought some Coke and mixed it. Nowadays, Id put a few ice cubes and wait a few minutes for them to start to melt. Then start on it. Well, at least it didn't cost me anything
Man if I knew what Oxner knows I could throw away what I know

Whats rough nowadays, is remembering when 25 year old Macallan was $90 a bottle, today it's $1200. A year ago it was about $950.
