    Got mine around 5:30 as well.

    Had a grapefruit Dominatrix and the first couple of sips were delicious but then the grapefruit became overpowering. Coconut Vlad, however, is something they need to bottle.

    Had the vanilla vlad last night. Very impressive. Worth every penny and the drive out there from the city.

    Going to be in the south burbs today & saw that Open Bottle still has Agnitio available. Only 2 scores here on BA & no reviews - any of you who have had a bottle is it worth picking up?

    Anyone there/stop by? I was thinking about heading over in a little bit and am curious as to if it's worth it.

    I stopped right after 11 AM and picked up bottles, but no drinks. There was space then and bar was very open. I was going to try to head back tonight as the variants look tasty. Don't know if the weather may discourage that though.

    Getting bottles there is so easy. They have a good system, and cash only really helps move things.

    Oh man. It's completely outside? That changes things then.
