Calumet Farm expensive stuff - what's the deal?
My local Kroger store has various Calumet Farm bottles, such as the 18-year and 17-year Centennial releases, sitting there (on the "special" shelf behind the cashier). If you filter to in-stock and sort by most-expensive on the app/website, they're always at the top.
What's the deal with them? Anyone tried them? (to be clear, I'm not considering buying myself, just curious)
My assumption is they must be not good, or at least not nearly worth the price, and also not desirable to taters because not flippable. So did that distillery just completely whiff on the pricing and refuses to try dropping the price? Are they selling in small amounts (somewhere) enough to stay on the shelf at that price? I've never heard anyone (at all) even mention the brand.
Just seems very odd. They sit there with a very high price tag, collecting dust. Are they just *that bad*?
