From a buddy in another whisky forum. Below MSRP, plus shipping of course…
 
Been a week, so the wife and I took a road trip into Montana for lunch and made a few pit stops. Also stopped by the Costco (of all places) out in north Spokane that we don't usually go to. I gathered a few bottles along the way and she got some new ones for her as well. I almost ended up with a 4th and may still go see if it's there tomorrow 🤷‍♂️

Well, decided to head out to Costco after our family function and if the Dewars was still there, it was meant to be. Well, it is sitting at my home now.

Learned that when Costco gets some of the limited supply/higher end bottles in and the limit is one per member, employees aren't supposed to buy them. The nice guy that was helping me said it is good and bad as he was eyeballing their last bottle of Blood Oath.

I have a bottle of the 32 year double double and it is a great pour. Tried it a few years ago at the distillery and was told there were 700ml bottles on the U.S., was only able to find a 350ml bottle at the time. I'd expect the one you just got will also deliver a great pour. Cheers!
 
It's a really good price for that bottle, but it's a slightly above average Scotch. For the price, there's better Scotches for the money. That said, despite the inherent gimmick that is Orphan Barrel, some of the releases are really good (just over priced).

Here's a really good write-up on the brand: https://www.reddit.com/r/bourbon/s/v8fbw2461o
That is what I was seeing from a quick search, so left it there, but did grab a limited Makers Mark. It was only $73 after the lovely Washington taxes 🙄
