For reference, I’ve got over 70 bottles just of whiskey, and my only real limiter is shelf space [emoji28]

Ditto.  If I had the space, then neither of us would care, but we don't have the space.  We have bottles tucked all over the place, which is the problem.  Part of it is also the way VA sells things.  Being a state run store, everything is sold at MSRP, regardless of what it sells for on the secondary market.  So a lot of things are quite affordable in our stores, even though they would cost considerably more in other states where the price can be based on demand.  To counter that, those bottles become scarce and start to only be offered as limited release.  Because of that, we end up grabbing stuff we really shouldn't because you never know when it might be available to you again.  So, as I mentioned in the previous post, we're now trying to remove everything from the collection that is readily available so we can try to reduce the space we are using up.  Maybe in the end this only moves me from the upper 70s to the upper 60s, but every inch of space saved is helpful.
