I'm for drinking it, BUT ONLY one! You don't need to drink the entire thing or do you?

I'm not sure what the price conversion is to US dollars, either. I'm guessing it's pretty expensive, though, or you wouldn't be asking! Do you have a special anniversary or special occasion coming up any time soon? I suppose I would save it for something rather special. Brandy is something I prefer to drink in cold weather, rather than summer, so if nothing special is coming up soon, I'd keep it and have it next Christmas, with family.

LOL!! Your my kind of people
It would roughly cost about £24 to buy. But I was reading that they can be collectors items if the brandy has been bottled for some considerable time, not sure if there is a id mark on the box to give some date of bottling. However as suggested trying it would be nice as well, I have tried a few different Brandys over the years, so it is kinda tempting.

I would leave it alone. I wasn't able to find a price in US dollars, but I did find out that the private reserve is at least 20 yrs old. It is probably very expensive. If I knew what type of money it is in, I could look it up on a conversion chart.

That's about $48 - 50 US

Well, you could add it to a jar of plums, or peaches, or some such fruit and let it sit for a couple of months! Then use the fruit on vanilla ice cream.

Now the question is what do I do with it?
If I'm doing the currency exchange correct, then


2,199.00 CZK = 133.136 USD
Czech Republic Koruny United States Dollars
1 CZK = 0.0605439 USD 1 USD = 16.5169 CZK


If you drink that, you're NUTS! It will only go up in price. Save it for a special occasion!
