Whiskey is one of the most popular spirits. It is made from different types of grain, and the malting technology and long-term aging in oak barrels gives it a unique aroma. Good whiskeys are not cheap, and for the most expensive and rare drink you will have to pay a very large sum.
Instructions
Step 1
The most expensive and rare whiskey in the world is "The Macallan Fine & amp, Rare Vintage" - it was bottled in 1926, and the aging is 60 years. A bottle of this drink sold for $ 38,000 and is absolutely impossible to purchase today. However, connoisseurs of rare drinks can buy its analogue, bottled in 1938 - "Macallan Fine & amp, Rare", which costs 10,200 dollars and belongs to the world's most expensive collection of vintage whiskey.
Step 2
The drinks from the Macallan Fine & Rare collection are appreciated for their natural taste with a wide range of flavors, styles and aromas. Today they are of the greatest value and are on a par with jewelry masterpieces, rare cars and creations of world couturiers. In the spring of 2002 this collection was sold for 250,000 pounds, which allowed it to enter the Guinness Book of Records. The composition of "Macallan Fine & Rare" includes whiskey of the best harvests, harvested from 1926 to 1976 - only forty-two bottles of the precious drink.
Step 3
The main idea of the collection "Macallan Fine & Rare" was the selection of the best samples from the store and the creation of the greatest collection of single malt vintage whiskey, which will have no analogues in the world. The Macallan specialists tasted the whiskey from 500 barrels and selected a range of drinks with an extraordinary color palette and a dizzying range of aromas - from fresh fruity to slightly peaty and strong sherry.
Step 4
All whiskeys from this collection are unique specimens, each of which exists in only one barrel and is intended only for the elite. Some are aged in butt and hogshead barrels, which are 400 and 238 liters respectively. Fans of the "Macallan Fine & Rare" collection joke that its creators gave the lion's share of the whiskey's aging to angels, so it cannot be purchased in any store. Collector's whiskey can only be ordered from the Macallan distillery itself or by prior arrangement with a private collector.
