He’ll not know the difference
Redbreast 15 if you’re not concerned about price.
John’s Lane is the best of those P4P.
I wouldn’t dream of paying what they’re asking for Red Spot.

84 euro as I’m flying to US (assuming I can get it in the shop beyond Homeland/customs )
Powers John Lane is 55
Would you ever get any of the other 60ish euro whiskeys on knock down price in Tesco? Likes of redbreast etc
Redbreast is currently circa €65 in Tesco. The offie manager* tells me that on very rare occasions ( twice yearly possibly) there might be €5 off it. In other words practically never.

Supposed to be a quota of 4 per customer 
I remember reading in a book on persuasion that when a store put customer limits on sale of an item the average sale per customer increases. Basically it’s a marketing trick.
Here’s the passage:
*In the actual study, the researchers included three variations of that sign, and they measured how many cans people purchased with each sign: *
*“No limit per person” generated an average of 3.3 cans sold. *
*“Limit of 4 per person” generated an average of 3.5 cans sold. *
*“Limit of 12 per person” generated an average of 7.0 cans sold. *
Remarkably, the original 12-limit sign generated sales that were nearly double those of the other signs.

By the way, I drank four Jameson 18yo last night. Not impressed, at all. Drank four, just to be sure of verdict, because a rather eejity barman, who seemed stoned, sold me the first one for €6 – when a shot of it should be around four times more.

Well… Touché.
The following three were also €6. Two lads at the bar starting drinking it when they copped what happened with me. I had no qualms because at the outset I asked yer man, who was notably ill mannered as well as incompetent, to find out the price of Jameson 18yo. If he had been polite and pleasant, I would have said: ‘You are doing yourself there.’
Was always suspicious of a blend for €200 plus. No richness to the drop. And Jameson 18yo is more expensive than Redbreast 21yo. Not only that barman is eejity.

I personally think you were dead right but don’t put that on Twitter. Some fella got absolutely scalded recently for a similar story of being undercharged.

It happened us one night when a lot younger. One of our group decided he wanted us all to have a brandy and asked the barman how much a shot from a particular VSOP bottle was. €6 he was told. He ordered 4, handed the barman €25 and we downed them. As we slammed the glasses on the counter, the barman turned around sheepishly and said “Sorry lads, they are actually €15 (or similar) each”. We just laughed at him.
