After learning so much about whisky in our last posts we wanted to show you how much the five most expensive whiskies costed.
**You will see that the limited supply of a whisky is a very bullish factor. Whiskies only get precious when there is a limited supply.**
No. 5 - Bowmore 1957 ( 54 years old) for $ 109,000
In Decembre 2012 an American bought this bottle. Only 11 were produced. The money was used for a good cause.
No. 4 - Karuizawa (62 years old) for $ 115,000
Last year someone bought the Karuizawa 62 years old from Japan for around 115,000 US-Dollars.
No. 3 - Dalmore Trinitas (64 years old) for $ 126,000
Only three bottles of the Dalmore Trinitas 64 were produced. In 2010 they sold one of them for 126,000 US-Dollars.
No. 2 - Dalmore Trinitas (64 years old) for $ 150,000
Another one of the three Dalmore Trinitas bottles was sold for around 150,000 US-Dollars in 2011 in London.
No. 1 - Dalmore (62 years old) for $ 160,000
The Dalmore 62, a blended whisky, was sold in 2011 for around 160,000 US-Dollars. This makes it the most expensive whisky of all times. There were only 11 bottles since 1943.
