$214.95 at Uncle Dan
https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_355380?store=2414&e…

The crown jewel in the Zacapa line-up and the epitome of elegance in rum.
Zacapa's top shelf blend of 6-25 year old rums is an exemplary example of the spirit that goes through a similar solera aging process to the popular Solera 23 with one notable exception: after a spell in ex-bourbon, ex-oloroso sherry, and ex-Pedro Ximenez sherry casks, the final blend is finished in French oak casks previously used to age cognac (befitting of the XO moniker, but relatively meaningless in the rum world). It feels like a very old cognac or brandy on the nose with an almost ethereal lift of sticky date, dark chocolate, coffee bean and light golden syrup. The palate delights the senses with a fabulous rush of dates, molasses cake, mocha, honey, super-aged muscat and perfectly balanced spirit. The finish is drying and XO cognac-like. Tasting like a good proportion of seriously old material is in the mix, this is the epitome of elegance in rum with luxe presentation to match. 40% Alc./Vol.

    yo wtf this is an INSANE PRICE!!!!!

    even entry level zacapa hasnt been sub $90 for a while without stacking coupons and flybys points (i do half heartedly watch the prices)

      Dan had Zacapa 23 for $104 just this week. About $20 off.

      • Jimothy Wongingtons on 08/03/2024 - 14:01

        its still 104 this week i believe
        i used to buy it closer to 85 (i definitely paid around this sometime around 2020) before any cb or credits
        then i think we had a bunch of alcohol tax increases and a shortage (i rememeber boozebud was out for ages especially), so i bought up on diplomatico one christmas, which i think i paid about 90 ea after credits etc

        • Joe Armstrong on 09/03/2024 - 00:18

          Ronny & Diplo are my two favourite rums. Any other suggestions?

            @Joe Armstrong: Not a rum but for $100 mark I recommend penfolds grandfather. Usually comes in a nice presentation box. All round crowd pleaser even for people that are not big drinkers.

            A bad chick, a bowl of bulla vanilla icecream and a glass of this for dessert. I promise you will be vibing like crazy with it.

      Straight from the bottle…

      Nah serious either neat or with whiskey rocks. It's absolutely delicious. That being said in a moment of weakness I have had it with coke, and it was the absolute best rum and coke I ever had!

          What? You made an outlandish claim and now won't (can't) substantiate it.

          This price is right here & now. BWS doesn't even sell RZ at present so good luck getting there let alone cheaper.

            +1

            @Ham Dragon: not to mention 'cashback ' - there hasnt been cashback on alcohol deals for ages (there was a lot of chatter about it lately)

            • Ham Dragon on 08/03/2024 - 13:11
              +6

              @Musiclover: RRP at DM is $237, less 30% is $165.90, which is still 10% more expensive than this deal. Cope harder.

              No one is disputing that certain booze can be had for an equal or greater discount, just that this particular high-end niche product is not cheaper elsewhere right now, despite your claim (that you refuse to substantiate).

              • Musiclover on 08/03/2024 - 13:23
                -8

                @Ham Dragon: I have not said you can have it now. I just said it can be generally available cheaper from major retailers. If you want this particular brand, this particular bottle and you want it right here right now - sure, it could be the lowest price for you. I would at least be doing a price beat at Dan Murphys if I wanted this one urgently.

                      @Musiclover: You didnt bother listening a cheaper price though, so this is the cheapest price to buy atm…

                      • Musiclover on 08/03/2024 - 19:29

                        @solidussnake: You probably meant to say "listing"? But I did, It's not my fault you have not read what I wrote. Price beat at Dan M for the laziest of the lazy. Stacking with vouchers, codes and cashbacks for the rest.

                        • Ham Dragon on 08/03/2024 - 21:20

                          @Musiclover: Please show us where we can stack vouchers, codes & cashback for this particular product and get it cheaper.

              • garage sale on 08/03/2024 - 22:04

                @Ham Dragon: how do we get 30% off the normal dans price ?

                • Ham Dragon on 08/03/2024 - 22:11

                  @garage sale: The other person was claiming 30% cashback at BWS happens regularly. BWS don't even stock Ron Zacapa at present, AFAIK. I used their claim of 30% cashback to illustrate that this Nick's deal is still cheaper, even if DM offered 30% cashback (good luck), using their RRP, which is usually the lowest.

    Thanks for the deal.
    I went a little overboard and got Glenfarclas 105 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1000ml) instead.
    It was the ABV: 60% that drew me in.
    Paired it up with Flor de Cana Grand Reserve 7 Year Old Rum (1000ml) for $69.99 and the 5% discount https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/15041186/redir and I'm happy.

    • Jimothy Wongingtons on 08/03/2024 - 13:35

      ABV: 60%

      damnnnnn - is this for them times when you get called out by the boys but got a saturday shift at 7am so need to get 7 hours of partying done in 2-3 shots?

    • Gav on 08/03/2024 - 15:22

      Hint: Water the Glenfarclas down a little (had many bottles). It's strong stuff. Was around $105 for a long time pre-COVID. :(

    • Sammyboy on 08/03/2024 - 15:44

      Looks like they finally matched drink society on the 105. Its my go to whisky

  • BlueDiesel on 08/03/2024 - 14:41

    "Unfortunately" I or better said my taste buds have "outgrown" these quite sweet Rums.
    But defiantly a very drop for a very good price and a couple of years ago I would have been all over this.

  • TRAVELO on 08/03/2024 - 15:06

    Must be a pricing error.. our wholesale price for this unit is $197.60ex GST

    • Jimothy Wongingtons on 08/03/2024 - 15:13

      i really expected dans to tell me to f off tbh (as would have been their right I guess seeing as nicks is only in 1 location, and in victoria) - i guess today has been a slow sales day.

      • mastermik3y on 08/03/2024 - 16:43

        Ahh this makes sense now on why they were trying to charge me $9.90 for delivery and no pick-up options at my local DM. Managed to get out of it. I will be picking up this bottle when I finish work and hopefully its enjoyable. I'm sure it will be!

        • Jimothy Wongingtons on 08/03/2024 - 16:44

          If you only got 1 bottle I think that would have been fair. Nicks had $200 spend to get free delivery (I think most of us got two bottles though)

          • mastermik3y on 08/03/2024 - 16:46

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: I didn't want to spend nearly $300 on something that I've never tried before. I'm sure I will regret this decision later though haha

              @mastermik3y: That’s what I mean going with the t and c’s shipping should have applied (unless you happen to live near nicks)… but yeah good on dans I guess they are thinking better any money into dans pockets than some random 1 shop independent

              And I bet u Wil be tempted to go back for another haha
              It’s niceee

      • garage sale on 10/03/2024 - 11:28

        dans now also sometimes ask if price matching distance from store ,

        • Jimothy Wongingtons on 10/03/2024 - 12:41

          They asked me that too and I am definitely nowhere near the nicks store

  • chonkymonky on 08/03/2024 - 15:12

    thank you :) got pricematched at Dans :)

  • mastermik3y on 08/03/2024 - 16:22

    Also price matched at Dans. They were also going to charge me $9.90 for delivery but I've managed to get out of it and they allowed me to pick it up from my local Dans for free. Originally they said it had to be delivery only as it's a part of their price guarantee policy but after a bit of complaining they agreed for free pick-up at my local DM.

    I'm usually a cognac drinker but I'll give this a go judging by how highly its spoken about here and online.

    Thank you Daddy74!
