Westvleteren 12

Post by DaPan »

Esprit agencies just posted an updated listing, including "limited quantities" of Westvleteren 12. I can't afford the whole case, anyone interested in going in on this?

I wouldn't think that anyone would pass this up. I'm very interested...though I've never been a part of a private order before. Toronto area anyone?

Looks like it is $16/btl. Would love to join in. How many bottles minimum per person are you looking for?

I just got the same list and was going to see if anyone was up for splitting. $384/case is a bit rich for my liking.

I'd be up for a couple bottles at least!

Huh. I didn't get their latest update for some reason, but count me in for a couple of bottles, if available.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I just inquired about ordering a case and received this response from Esprit.
I DID have it in stock…I’ve received orders for twice as much as I had. We will bring in more…do you want to reserve any?

Peter
I'm assuming it will be a long wait for more. :(

Thanks for the update. I'd still like to setup an order with Peter.

Anyone who's interested, please PM me and note the number of bottles you would like.

$16 per is the price on his order sheet. As mentioned earlier, $384 for a case.

First come, first served. I'm located in Richmond Hill, but work downtown, so willing to meet in either location for eventual delivery.

Cheers!

I'd be up for a bottle or two, if we're going to wait in line, not much different than a usual private order :wink:

The response to our offer was a bit overwhelming. We do have more coming in but it will be 2-3 months and I already have a lot of reservations for them so act quickly if you're interested.

I'd be in for as many as 6, if we were attempting to put together another order here.
