Send the 151 my way. Pretty sure they stopped making that years ago. Haven't found a consistent replacement since - and who doesn't need a floater on their summer rum drinks!

If they are unopened then you have some gifts you can hand out.  

 

If they are open just google some mixed drinks featuring the booze you have and make a batch when you have or go to a party.  Especially summer parties or tailgate parties.

It's been awhile since It's been on the shelves - rumor was that the lawsuits from injuries due to flaming shots became too much - and I have nothing to back that up except rumor. I always thought it was funny that the bottle had a screen on it. A local store had 151 Cruzan for awhile but I haven't seen that in at least a year or two.

Found 2 more bottles of 151,  Some of the bottles in boxes seem to old based on labels.

I am trying to figure out what to do with it and organizing is how I plan.

A couple of friends I can give locally. A couple of relatives I can save bottles for.  It seems she had a liquor store in her house and she does not drink!

You are a mod, my name and you know my general location.  You have all the information to find me.  Guessing you are a bourbon/whiskey drinker.

With the amount of hooch Limeade received, it would probably be in contravention of some provincial regulations. 😁

True, Ontarians are technically breaking the law buying booze in Quebec

How do you know if liquor is expired?

Unopened liquor has an indefinite shelf life. Opened liquor lasts about a year or two before it goes bad, meaning it starts losing its color and flavor. Don't use a liquor for well drinks if you won't use the whole bottle within two years. It does not generally become toxic, though.

From reading this post I wasn't sure if all these bottles were open or still sealed. big difference.

Jack Daniels green, black, or silver? 🤔

 

I assume you are asking about label - black - and it is #7 not #10 or #12 which seem more valuable.

It has a different neck label than all of the bottles I have mostly seen on searches.

 

image.png.e740414340a0bfb9248f971f59d3e03c.png

 

Bottles are sealed except the Bristol Cream I opened last night.

 

Early this morning I sent info on bottles of King George UV Blended Scotch Whisky to 3 businesses which advertising buy whisky and whiskey,

One response so far of not looking for those.

Hoping to sell them and give my wife's friend the money.

 

 

(n college I used to be a "mixologist" at a club being tipped for mixed drinks and paid on tips alone.

I had a recipe book with stiffened pages which had drink recipe for one drink on it with picture of drink.

Opposite page (back of previous recipe) was blank so on each page I wrote joke(s) for recipe while watching Johnny Carson.

This helped generate more tips.

I never got full bottles in that job unless I emptied a bottle.

the hard liquor will be fine ... the cordials, sherry and wine will be iffy depending on the age. It has been at least 5 years since Bacardi stopped making the 151 ... someone might pay for that one. Mix the Myers with pineapple juice.

Harvey Bristol Cherry tastes good.  I have a bottle of rum unfinished but after that I will mix with grapefruit juice or with Arizona Ice Tea/Lemonade.  Some like vodka in Arnold Palmer, some like gin and I like rum.  It was very popular when I was a mixologist where I would put in two types of rum.

 

It is so hard to date spirits.  Rare is there a bottle date on it.

I think what you need is a bowling ball and some determination. Maybe throw a special block party.

I was born in Blasdell and had wedding reception (US one) in Orchard Park

I come up to WNY to visit family. 

 

If you want certain bottles I can save them for you and bring them up - probably spring break or summer; winter this year is Hawaii,
