January 11, 2024 - Drinking incredibly well right now. Scored this beauty on clearance at my local Costco. Was marked down to … $6.97! Purchased 18 in total. If only they had more out back.

No one had any idea what was on the shelf and I only saw it because I had to wait in line to get the chips I was wanting. Bought all 11 of them. Similar strategy.
Unfortunately I only have one of these 2015 CCR's. Any thoughts on optimal drinking window? If you are not sure you can send me a case or so of yours and I can drink them over time and let you know... -

I wish I had the strength to save more :) Only 2 remain. 16 have been thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed :). Hard to not crack one open on a random night given the QPR / price paid. Will open the final two in 2025 and 2026 !
