Hmm- every time I have looked, the price doesnt vary a LOT- it varies a little, from expensive, to very expensive.
Never seen cheap, thats for sure.
I live in a state in the USA, Washington, with some of the highest liquor prices in the USA, and I still generally find its about half the price of Buenos Aires for good scotch, irish whiskey, or bourbon.
I bring it with me when I come down.
And when I run out, I drink Fernet.
