The “Deluxe Chrome Bottle Carousel & Measures” is a cute way to keep four upended bottles of booze close at hand, but it would never work for my spirit of choice: most bourbon comes in oddly shaped bottles, not the uniform one-liters needed to fix firmly into place. Not that I’d spend £80 on this stainless steel contraption in the first place — that’s far too much money that could be spent on more booze. Besides, the sound of alcohol spilling out into an empty rocks glass always signifies that it’s going to be a fun breakfast.
Relatedly, I still haven’t found a bottle of Crystal Head Vodka on sale anywhere in real life or on the internet. I’m getting a bit desperate. If anyone knows where to pick one up in NYC please let me know!

picked up a bottle last weekend at, oddly enough, the liquor store next to the local costco. couldnt believe it when i saw it there in the glass case next to the hennessey xo. even stranger, i live in fort worth texas.
if you want me to send you a bottle, let me know, i’d be glad to! it tastes like diamondy vodka!
Not sure about NYC, but if you are ever actually on the Rock (Newfoundland) where it’s made, they sell it at the provincial liquor stores. I think it’s about $50 Canadian. Maybe they even sell it at the distillery.
I saw Crystal Head at a liquor store near my house. There was an officially licensed M*A*S*H glass IV bottle decanter. Try ebay…

I know the picture looks like a gin and tonic, but the site is legit.
$45, plus shipping. Just got it last week. Smells putrid, but is incredibly smooth. Plus it looks awesome sitting on your coffee table.
Indeed, I saw one of these at Canadian Tire for $30 up here in Toronto.
80 quid? I bought one for under a tenner at a random trade show. I’m not 100% sure it was stainless but it sure looks similar.
