Fordgalaxy Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Where's Mr Barnum when you need him? I'd be willing to bet the cost of a bottle, that if you assembled some non-Macallan single malt scotch drinkers and did a blind taste test, the people who correctly chose the really old stuff vs newer, would be about the same % as pure chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Mountain Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) You better see God after drinking it, or be imbued with some special powers at that price. Probably tastes like piss. Edited May 21, 2016 by Tombstone Mountain 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 For that price, you better see God after drinking it, or be imbued with some special powers at that price. Probably tastes like piss.I was thinking varnish, but yeah. Rich people like to indulge in old or gross food/beverage just for the sake of rarity or indulgence. They're too elitist to admit it's crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimsonmistymemory Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I'll stick with my Bourbon thank you, although I did used to like that barley liquor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I don't doubt it probably tastes great, is probably very smooth but $35K good??? It's like some cigars in my humidor at $14 and above a cigar better knock my socks off, leave a strong positive impression not well it's okay. At $35K it better be served to me by Neil Peart and he better sit with me like a long awaited friend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you must be a personal friend of his to know how intelligent he is. I don't know him personally, but I do know he's not intelligent enough to not include condescension and put downs for some of the less fortunate people when he writes his books. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 If the $35,000 went to charity after purchase, I'd be ok with it. Otherwise, I think I'd be happy if the buyer accidentally dropped and smashed the bottle immediately after purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egads.Knew an overly proud geezer a decade back that was eager to boast of spending something like ¥10,000,000 ((maybe about $100,000?)) on the front fence/gate to his house. He said the size of the wall shows how great one's family is. Stupid little man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
