Trump "Spoon of Wine" - BUT does it come with a crumb of cheese?

The sips are one of the biggest splurges at the hotel lobby bar of Donald Trump‘s $200 million-plus spectacle, which opened yesterday in the Old Post Office building. A single ounce costs anywhere from $15 to—breathe—$140. Mahdavian came up with the idea as a way for patrons to sample pricey wines at a slightly more accessible price.



no, this is not sarcasm and no, I did not make this up:

I don't suppose that the $15 to $140 sip is deducted from the cost of the bottle . . . . . . no_hypocrisy Sep 2016 #1

More likely a customer would need to buy an unopened bottle instead of the open sample.
