Bookers whiskey
Have many of you had this?

For my brother its one of his favourite drinks. Going to buy him a bottle for Christmas.
Never tried it myself. Is it really that good?

Yeah NZ dollars....$55 USD = $100 NZ dollars

or 36 UK pounds = 100 NZ

Another reason why tourism here is pretty huge.

ah i see..i guess not that bad of a mark up..in korea liquor is usually double the price if not more than what i would pay in usa..like 1 litre of absolut is like 30 bucks and 1 litre of cuervo (yuck) is around 45 bucks..they don't have usually have speciality shit like bookers or what not, so i had never seen a price for it outside of usa..bookers is around 34 usd or so at small shop here in delaware..the larger wharehouse style places it would be probably 30 or so..i always laugh when i am in europe and go into the duty free shops and look at european and other locale liquors...i am like "are you kidding me? this is duty free? i can get it cheaper at a store in usa and it is imported from europe"
