One might expect some small shop in Podunk USA to do this, but a high-end store? That's insane. Their liquor license should have been immediately forgeited
Crack me up. With the change in liquor laws where I live this is what the local bars do. After closing they fill the bottles with potters and charge the higher end price. Ppl get so wasted they don’t even notice....
Furthermore, even the distiller couldn't say with certainty that it was a fake. You would think that with one sip, he could say it's definitely not the real product. So that tells me that a decent $50 bourbon of the same proof and similar mash bill (recipe) is close enough in taste to a $1,000 bourbon to fool the distiller.
Bro selling whisky and Bourbon for higher profit seems like a really fun job, sell 30-60 of these fakes and you already made double minimum wage makes x2. Sell one a day your set for life.... cheers to a new career path 🥃
and they literally just gave away tips on how you could make counterfeits even more believable. It wouldn't be hard to recreate the entire packaging even. You would need a lot of equipment to do it properly though.

I remember hearing about that on a past episode of Crimewatch (SG), though in that, it was fake liquor bottles at a secluded facility in Malaysia and brought across the border to be sold in Singapore. However, I had imagined the fake drink to just be water with food colouring and certain drugs/medicine mixed in.
@@evacpeppers7806 I bought a bottle of fancy bourbon that was in a glass bottle. I put it into the spot behind the front seat of my truck. Before I even got in to drive home, it slid out (plastic bags suck), and smashed. I could have bought at least three bouncy bottles of booze for that lesson!
All you need to do is add chemistry to the label that will change colour after being exposed to oxygen for a while. Simply add some airtight packaging and fill it with nitrogen and you have your counterfeit-proof bottle. You can just build this technology into an existing wine bottle.
If I was the whiskey manufacturer I would file suit against that store. Selling counterfeits is how you convince people to never trust even the real deal.
There is a law here in which all bars and any other place where alcohol is served have to smash their empty bottles. But there is simply no way to oversee what individuals do with them.
This is why I only buy from distilleries on trips and such when I go there lol; which admittedly is often 😭 No, you’re an alcoholic; I’m not an alcoholic 😁
i think it kind of proves that people will believe something is superior, just because they told it is, why else would this be one of the top liquor places in nyc
Literally as soon as he saw which whiskey he was holding he ran back into the store. They definitely knew what was up.
Wow, way to not look guilty AF on national TV.
😂😂 the guilty always run !
Lol
So damn what happened at Aker? I want to know if the CEO contacted them???
3:10 The managers reaction confirms that he knew it was a fake.
I always break the top part of the bottle after I finish every bottle. Too many of these cases here in Asia.
Who cares. 😂
Smelly feet

I saw this first hand in a sales call, the bar owner was filling the Hennessy bottle with water
It’s essentially stealing
This is why the brand needs to sell to the consumer directly
I don’t drink this, but seems interesting
I don't drink because I'm Christian, but this is interesting. Sad about the scamming.
I’m your 99th follower, good luck.

@@imjustmedontworry6085 yes, he’s a real Christian and not a fake one like you and others who drink alcohol.

This is currently a horrible problem in the Dominican Republic. Nearly 150 have died in the last few months due to fake alcohol.
Especially don't drink Johnnie Walker in DR
This has been going on since the birth of liquor.
Only one way to find out, cheers everyone 👍
LOL SMART
Cheers 🤙

What I learned is there's no point in buying any high price whiskey or rum because there's more fakes then the real thing on the market

Next up is your favourite water actually bottled water from somewhere else
how tf did the horse video in the start have anything to do with whiskey
alcohol is usually consumed at horse races
Kentucky....
They celebrate the horse raced by drinking burboun drinks, didnt you listen?
Kentucky whisky factory, Kentucky Derby last Saturday . it was on the evening news. You get it now?
This is a good question for people who can tell the difference between whiskey and scotch
I myself drink moonshine specifically this kind my great grandpa had a stash of
U typed voka instead of scotch
That's the first thing novice whiskey drinkers learn. Typically within a few days/weeks of drinking you learn the difference
Bourbon and scotch taste completely different...
That's a problem I don't have to deal with lol

@@carabiner7999 damn, that sucks 😕
Thanks for the new side hustle
Hell yea
They were trying spread awareness to stop this but pretty sure it had the opposite effect and it only gave people idea lmao 😂
I got some empty bottles of patron and don Julio you can fill it up with Costco tequila and sell them! I’ll give u a good price
Drink the booze and replace it with something from the same distillery. Sucker!
So the lesson is: do not buy crazy expensive whiskey.
Perhaps buy direct?
Why am watching this, I don't even drink whiskey.
Ok
Cuuuuuz it’s interesting
I don't drink it either and after this video I don't ill start
Thats literally what i think about bottled water i always think it might just be tap water on a bottle
If it says filtered water, it's from the tap. Especially if it's owned by Nestle

I saw Whiskey was selling on Craigslist, but I’m glad That The 2021 Kentucky Derby is finally back after delay of pandemic in May last year
Theres a scene in the movie The Color of Money where Paul Newman's character is selling this same scam to the bar owners.
With the EH Taylor example, that store rep knew it was fake.
There’s a guy in Arkansas just got caught through a social media investigation, it needs to get put on BLAST!
we buy directly from government stores in VA so no fakes
🤭
Me watching this who can’t even drink:
You know you f'ed up when Les shows up.
the best solution to not get scammed is just not drink :/
Not all collectors drink. Sure, most do, though.
If I was the whiskey manufacturer I would file suit against that store. Selling counterfeits is how you convince people to never trust even the real deal.
the shop owner not speaking about it just kills his own company, he should have talked and said he didn't know and fixed it
There is a law here in which all bars and any other place where alcohol is served have to smash their empty bottles. But there is simply no way to oversee what individuals do with them.
Don't drink whiskey but do love watching more Inside Edition
Not my Fireball 😉
“I do declare”
I say with a pinky in the air.
This is so common these days... Liquor, sneakers, records, electronics... Hell people even bootleg laundry detergent!!!
This is why I only buy from distilleries on trips and such when I go there lol; which admittedly is often 😭 No, you’re an alcoholic; I’m not an alcoholic 😁
The Buffalo Trace Distillery doesn't sell it's most sought out bourbons during the tours
I went to the reviews on Google and Inside Edition viewers have flooded it already 👍😂😂
You can tell the manager was aware that it's fake when the news camera was filming him.
I was sure this would fail because they went to the finest store possible. Shocked to find out they sell fake stuff.
There is clenlivet and jang Daniels in our province. Cheap and laced with fertilizer.
Is it bad that after watching this, I now want a truly? Don’t worry it’s 5 PM rn
Les Trent doing what Lisa Guerrero does best. You love to see it
Next video: Acker, america's oldest winery, is shutting it's doors.
This is why I inspect and always pour the bottle myself
Gotta respect the side hustle
This is the only reason I like ABC stores. They order straight from the factory
I see you in Louisville on the computer screen when he was searching the bourbon state
That is a crime.
Who cares? As long as you enjoy it that’s all that matters.
Thanks for the idea.
That’s fine. I only drink certain brands of rum & tequila, nothing worth a trick up the sleeve.
Added security features on bottles will soon be the norm
So is the store in trouble with the law or not?
Thats why I dont buy random whiskey for hundreds of dollars.
Even if the bottle was real whoever buys it is still an idiot for paying $900 over retail price and fueling the secondary market
This is why I buy cheap whiskey. It doesn't lie to me.
So... how I’m supposed to know what’s fake and what’s real at a restaurant... da heck
By chemical analysis I guess...
@@taktuscat4250 lmao I know right.. here I am thinking they gonna give us some pointers
Wow I need to know, drink by professionals if it is fake or not
"Everything in our power" oh he knows.
Dude sees bottle...
Dude dips out..
Dude knows he's in the wrong...
"Biyer beware"...yeah but how is the average consumer gonna know??
i think it kind of proves that people will believe something is superior, just because they told it is, why else would this be one of the top liquor places in nyc
You spent 1000 dollars for nothing ! 😂😂
If you need a chemical analysis to prove your bottle is legit instead of just tasting it, you shouldn't buy high end whiskey.
We used fill expensive bottles of vodka with the cheap stuff and give it to bougie girls, they dont know the difference
give free shots to customers enough and they wont know the difference and charge them the mark up for cheap alcohol.
“One mans trash, is another mans cash.”
-probably me
For 1k, this is a lawsuit
Only way to stop it is mass produce it and lower the price to 30 dollers
Rich people problems. I dont really care if some schmucks get scammed when they buy "high end" products.
They would have had to pay me back the cost of the bottle and the cost of testing to the manufacturer or face a lawsuit🤨.
One way i know is that i sing Tennessee whiskey if i dont dont sing it right its fake
Zeke's Spinal Fluid
Yo let's get drunk.
Fake bottle: Lmao ok
Probably 1 of i.e. crew FAVORITE piece 2 shoot
It’s crazy I just quit working there last week 😭
We have gotten to a point in humanity where this is news,
🤣🤣🤣 one could substitute turpentine and nobody would know.
$1000 for a bottle of any alcoholic beverage seems quite ostentatious
Ask danny from counting cars... "the whiskey"
I’d like to give a shout out to Buffalo Trace for getting back to my email about some concerns I had. In one day!
I make my own wine and bourbon. I can adjust it to my liking and it's cheap
Good thing I drink jim beam lol
This is why you drink Evan Williams
To be honest they should have tracking number on the wines once it’s sold the tracking number should be claimed
Then they will find a way to duplicate the tracking numbers. This idea already failed with designer handbags
Why am I watching this? I don't even drink.
Well I'm glad I don't drink so more money I saved instead of being ripped off 😅
Who is Whiskey 🥃? Cognac is my bestfriend.😭❤️
That's messed up. Glad I don't drink either. I drink wine
And what does this show? You don’t need to pay more, it tastes the same...
"real fine burbon" is an oxymoron. might be old and expensive, but as long as i can open carry my two revolvers, it ain't gay.
