    I hope it's not a common issue

  • Spookey commented:

    6/23/15, 2:12 PM - Darin C. Yes. I purchased in April for $75. I have another bottle from the same batch. Plan to try in soon. I'll let you know if it has the same flaw. Hope yours turns out well.

    6/23/15, 2:20 PM - Buzzoff: I heard great things about this one. I have another bottle and a bottle of the 2011 Elizabeth. Hopefully lightning won't strike twice.

    6/23/15, 5:41 PM - Avoid umbrellas and trees...lightning only strikes twice in the same place if you encourage it ;-). We still have several bottles that will be going to sleep for a few more years...if we can keep our hands off :-(
