Well, I suppose I could splurge for a single pour.

LOL!


Too steep for that, but I did get a bottle of the Seleccion de Maestros for the road in DF. Apparently that's replacing my favorite, the Barrel Selection.

700 pesos last summer in Cozumel. I wait for the buy two get one free deal that the local supermarket Mega has every summer on all liquor. 15 various bottles purchase six of those being HC 3 & 7 in case you were wondering lol. I find it to hot and humid to enjoy the Maestros/Barrel Proof at home. Good thing the LCDH is air conditioned!

Btw, you can also get single pours of Havana Club Maximo Extra Viejo at the LCDH...no bottles to be found on the island though.
