I agree with those above who suggest shipping it. I know of lots of cases where people get cool stuff in their checked bags stolen by the TSA inspectors, and I'd have to guess that nip bottles and such would be very tempting. Heck, my dad even had a nice watch stolen by the people inspecting his carry-on. They're counting on the probability that you won't notice until much later and too far away to do much about it.
