Whiskey bros, I am able to get my hands on a bottle of Blantons SFTB (straight from the barrel) for a little over $200. Is it worth the money?

Congrats!!

I guess if you have to burn, yes. Personal preference I think. I’d probably scoop that.

When I worked abroad, I had a pretty reliable stream of SFTB for about $90/bottle. So whenever I’d come back to the States, I’d repatriate a few bottles and flip on the secondary for about that.

I‘ve had more than my fair share of the stuff, and I still find it exceptional. Not an everyday drinker, but I think it’s well worthwhile to pick up a bottle. Only Blanton’s worth paying a premium for IMO.

It’s an export-only bottle, so not something you’re going to come across every day.

Breitling updated the Navitimer and now there is a mint dial option. How did I miss this? I think it looks great; not sure I like mint better than black but so happy they put wings back on the dial. Any other Navitimer fans out there?

How does the holiday weekend impact your quota? Still the same? It's still the same for me, which I feel is unfair.

I recently started lifting, only once a week so far since I'm only at my work (and it's free gym) on Mondays. My friend said I might as well not lift at all since I'm not doing it 3 times a week. I get I'm not building a ton of muscle, if any at all, by only going once a week but it was really discouraging to hear that. I'm not in the habit of working out yet, so should I just stop lifting entirely if I'm not doing it 3x weekly?

What are some of the ways to drive more sales?
