Collecting Whiskeys

£11,750 is about US$19,616. And that's how much someone has paid for a bottle of 80-year-old The Macallan Anniversary Whiskey.

Sadly the older this bottle gets, the more valuable it becomes and the less likely it will ever be tasted. This is a collector bottle. Destined for unfulfilled immortality. In the old car hobby it would be called a trailer queen. But even if you never turned a wheel in the old car, beyond its investment value, you could still enjoy its presence, even its aroma. Try that with your precious bottle. The old car will always start up and run. We'll never know what's in the bottle.
