Absolutely. Driving prices skyward so that they can keep full bottles on pretentious displays and post pictures on social media.

The people driving prices up are the ones dealing on the secondary market. Their willingness to pay 2k for a $189 bottle of bourbon makes it easy for stores to jack up prices. A long time ago it was just around the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, but it has spread through the whole industry now. Luckily there has been an influx of new distillers and NPD’s that are making good whiskies at reasonable prices. Just hope some youtube whiskey idiot doesn’t say it’s the best thing ever.
