Long story short, I'm finishing up my basement and with that will be a wet bar! I went to Costco the other day and realized that the 1.75L generic's for all types of liquor were extraordinarily cheap compared to their counterparts.... Ex. $15 for Kirkland rum at 1.75L vs. $35 for Captain Morgan 1.75L.
There was a Kirkland's brand for Macallan 12 (scotch), Grey Goose, Bombay (gin), Captain Morgan, Crown Royal, Bailey (or one of the other Irish creme's) and tequilas (I saw two; one aged and one not).
I was planning on refilling my empty bottles of say my empty Grey Goose, Captain Morgan and other branded liquor bottles mentioned above and planned to just serve that to any guests whenever I have get-togethers at the house, but save the nice liquors for closer friends and family. That way, no one can complain about having to pitch in for alcohol for my cheapo friends and it won't hurt my pockets to do this nice gesture whenever they're over at the house.
Have any of y'all tried the Kirkland and compared it to its counterpart? Would you have noticed the difference?
