That's freaking insane. How much do these bottle cost Dorignacs?

That's the $500 question. Is it Republic jacking up the price or is it Republic rewarding Dorignacs for loyal business? I bet it's a little of both.

I don't think the distributors (republic) have the option of jacking up the price. the cost is set by the manufacturer and that's what the distributor is supposed to sell it at. the retailers jack up the prices

It's retailers making a huge markup off of it. Your allocation is highly dependent on quantity if product sold, # of skus, and some loyalty more so to sazerac co. If you're a huge mover of eagle rare, buffalo trace, old charter, etc you will be given a slightly larger allocation. If you stock every offering from sazerac you get bonus points. However, republic has held their wholesale within the range it's always been. It's the demand the retailers see that gets the bigger price. The distributors actually hate having something so limited because someone is always bound to get upset over what they get.
