Worthless Knowledge of the Week


The Most Expensive Liquor...EVER!



Ever wonder what the most expensive bottle of whiskey is? If you don't drink then you could probably care less but I do so I'm going to subject you to this quick chunk of worthless knowledge.

I normally drink a 12 year old single malt scotch that averages about $40 a bottle. My wife got me a nice 21 year old about a year ago that was about $150 (and my god, is it smooth) but both of those pale in comparison to a rare collection of Macallan Whisky from 1926. It was aged for 60 years and of course is now sold out but if you can find a bottle it would go for around $38,000. The only place that you can get a sip of this stuff is the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, N.J...bring your credit card...it's $3,300 per dram (1/8 of an ounce)!

Interesting side note, if you choose to go all American then the most expensive Tennessee whiskey would be Jack Daniels Single Barrel which you can pick up at most liquor stores for about $40! I'd recommend it...a lot!

Hum....can you still buy a car for $38,000? It's crazy when you think of it that way.

Guess I could trade in the Vette for a bottle of the stuff...nah!

Sounds like a good idea. Then you could pour me a $3,300 glass of it instead of that cheap $25 glass you gave me.

Just get a $2 bottle of "Mad Dog 20/20"

Yeah, Dwacon, but then you spend $10 in toilet paper the next morning...might as well step up a notch...like Black Velvet for $10 a plastic jug!
