@Cigarguys I didn't say they weren't good. Just older than I like.

Gotta tell ya, I thought you must have that price wrong because it seemed ridiculous. But then I plugged in one of the most expensive places for alcoholic beverages and AI set me straight.
“The average price for a classic Old Fashioned cocktail at a Manhattan restaurant ranges between $18 and $22. This price reflects standard baseline options using mid-shelf bourbons or ryes (like Buffalo Trace). It does not factor in New York City’s 8.875% sales tax or tip, which generally pushes the total out-of-pocket cost for a single drink close to $25 to $28.”
So wherever you’re at is slightly less expensive but definitely in the same ballpark. But still insane. 😅
