They also seem like unlikely to shop at Costco

People that shop at Costco skew far wealthier than the average American. Given that only a few Costcos, in very wealthy areas, are going to have even a single bottle of $28,000 whiskey, it's entirely reasonable to expect that they're going to be able to sell it.

Sure, but in those stats we're talking households making $100-$150K a year, who are not going to drop $27K on a bottle of whiskey lol

There's a subset of drinkers that would aspire to it though - some ppl's passion is booze, and will spend the same price as a nice car on it and sip it over a decade. Whether or not it's sane is up to you though lol
