Price differences on liquor

I realize that there are sometimes a multitude of taxes, but I just can't understand almost a 100% increase in them. The example I used is from Total Wine in FL. They sell Lagavulin for $95 while a smaller company in CT sells it for $50. That's nuts to me.

And to top it off, most of the time you can't order liquor over state lines. I didn't want this to turn into a rant, but I guess it has. With that large of an increase, it greatly hinders my trying out new Scotches.
