    Occasionally i get spam for first release limited edition spirts such as vodkas and rums and whiskies

    Does anybody collect them or know if they are a investment at all?

    The latest one which is apparently limited is

    Grey Goose VX Vodka 1L

    I'm always sceptical of them to be honest. I always think they are stuff ups given a fancy name and bottle. You will notice a lot of special single malt whiskeys do not have an age on them...

    With re whiskies iagree with you

    I am also in the boat of these were so limited that theyd probably sell out withint daya.

    Eg johnny green is apparently limited release however its been availble for months

    I've got a couple of first release Tasmanian whiskies (3 bottles) that i bought for about $160 each. They're worth well over a thousand each now :) Not something I normally look for but in this case I figured if it doesn't do well I'd just drink it ;)

    Get yourself $50 ahead at Nicks, only $150 there ;)

    Had some a good few months ago and while it's not going to win any awards, it's quite decent for what it is (and I'm not a fan of The Goose vodka).
