A Sip Of Opulence
This rare whisky is the most expensive whisky in the market
. Its called Glenfiddich 50 Year Old and it costs $16,000 for a single bottle.
This golden amber Scotch, the darkest of
Glenfiddichs whiskies, is only the second vetting of Glenfiddich 50 Year Old. The first was between 1937 and 1939, when Glenfiddich founder William Grant laid down nine casks one for each of the grandchildren whod helped him to set up his distillery by hand.
To create this whisky with its delicate rose petal, violet notes, green tobacco leaf, oak and smoke flavor two casks, each one matured for 50 years in a cool and dark warehouse, were mingled in an American oak cask by renowned Malt Master David Stewart for another six months before finally being bottled and all set for sale.
According to Glenfiddich Every year counts.
Scotch whisky
The most expensive bottle of scotch was a Dalmore 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky, sold in 2005 to an anonymous buyer for over $58,000 at the time of sale.
Dalmore 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch whisky
The classy scotch was one of only twelve bottles produced in 1943 from four single malts dating from 1868, 1876, 1926 and 1939. Each was labeled with its own unique name, this one being called Matheson after the Dalmore Estates owner, Alexander Matheson. It was purchased at the Pennyhill Park Hotel in Surrey, where the buyer reportedly shared it with five of his friends. It has been speculated that the buyer and his friends are the only people to have actually enjoyed a bottle of the
expensive vintage.
Macallan 1926
The most exclusive scotch broke a record previously held by another bottle of the same vintage, the Kildermorie, sold at auction in 2002 for $40,000 USD at McTears auction house in Glasgow.
The most recent expensive scotch purchase happened at Christies in New York, where a bottle of 1926 Macallan Scotch, bottled in 1986 and rebottled in 2002, was auctioned for $54,000. Taking place this past weekend, it was the first liquor auction allowed in New York State since the prohibition in 1920. It was expected to sell for between $20,000 and $30,000.
The Dalmore distillery, Scotland made a new record by selling two of the three worlds most expensive Scotch whisky bottles, Dalmore 64 Trinitas for $160,100 each. The Dalmore, one of the most famous whisky distilleries around the world, has now added the Eos 59-Year-Old Single Malt to its list of extreme vintages. Christened after the Titan goddess of the dawn, the 59-year-old scotch is bottled from the same pair of sherry casks that were used for the Selene, the
Dalmores highly prized 1951 vintage.
Only 20 special decanters of the Dalmore Eos 59-Year-Old Single Malt will be made available, with each costing $20,120. The decanter, made from mouth-blown Portuguese crystal, is housed in a precious yet strong solid steel box.The oldest and most sought-after of Macallans revolutionary Fine & Rare Collection is now sold out. The Macallan Fine and Rare Collection 1926, 60 Years Old Priced at $38,000 It is still possible to taste this totally unique Scotch whisky at the Old Homestead Steakhouse in the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, N.J. However, it sells for a nosebleed-inducing $3,300 per dram, so you better had a good run at the craps table.
According to Jonathan Goldstein, vice president of Park Avenue Liquors (New York) There wasnt even a market for this stuff a few years ago which specializes in limited-edition whiskies. Its only in recent times that weve seen these bourbon fanatics to have come in. Theyre looking for the rare and hard-to-get, the limited releases, the birthday bourbons and single-barrel bourbons.
