cool bottles, i'll keep an eye out in my local specialty liquor store.
best one i've had was given to a buddy of mine by a staffer at a russian embassy in croatia (long story). i guess it's normally about $150 in russia. by far the smoothest spirit i've ever tossed down my gullet.
my favorite accessible is XO, from france or all places. has some incredibly delicate and subtle citrus/flowery notes. about 50 bucks, but worth the splurge once in a while.
