Question
Mr. Wagner ,
How much is an old , sealed 750 ml bottle of 86 proof Dom benedictine and brandy worth?
Today they only have 80 proof in the USA.

Hi Peter
Distilled spirits like this don't change much in the bottle for better or for worse, because the alcohol level is so high. The good news is that your's is perfectly good to drink. The bad news is that it hasn't appreciated in value the way some fine wines do. It is worth about what a current bottling is worth...no matter what the proof.
Sorry that I can't give you more exciting news.
