Is any luxury item worth the price?
Lamborghinis?
Gold covered pizza?
Functionally and economically nothing that is a luxury item is worth the money
Costco alcohol can get you just as drunk
Expensive shit is there for rich people to circlejerk about a label

If you spend more than $50 on a bottle of whisky, you've been taken for a ride.

I've had $90 whisky that was legitimately the most delicious liquor I'd yet had.

price has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with how big of a pain in the ass it is to get it onto your plate.

expensive liquors just use overpriced barreling methods in tiny batches for absurd lengths of time. they aren't worth it.

Well I've had a $9 bottle of liquor and fucked Bailey Jay

Gross, he's fat and ugly.

Not when I had a piece.

Baily Jay has been ugly for as long as he's had that name.

He was only ever cute in one or two photos of Line Trap.

Blue Label has a huge brand tax, it's a meme. Premium whiskies in general however are worth the cost IMO.

In my experience higher quality liquor tastes smoother, tastes best on its own never mixed, and less shitty hangover. I once pounded half a bottle of corzo tequila silver and felt perfectly fine the next day, with the exception of mild dehydration

wine and whiskey are the only drinks worth paying for premium

Same here. there's a world of difference between Jose Cuervo and a bottle of Don julio 1942, particularly if you're planning to have more than a couple of drinks.

Generally they're smoother, have more nuanced flavors depending on how they've been aged/bottled etc, or try out some more odd/rare ingredients that a normal batch wouldn't have.

Other than that, it's simply a case of how long it took to make really. Though yeah certain liquors like Tequila and Single Malt Scotch, the price difference I feel is worth it, Vodka too if you're mainly planning to sip versus mix too.
