#1 Wow.

Shame of it is, its only going to be looked at, not drank (drunk?).

So, this afternoon, I'll raise a double of Balvenie 12 year 2-wood Single Malt in its honor. (Its much more reasonable at $60 a bottle).

#2 despite the fact that the whisky's cork had dropped into the bottle

What an idiot. The liquor will be "corked" from exposure to the stopper floating in it. It seems doubtful that the distillery or its operators are of historical significance, so all this amounts to is someone with dangerous quantites of extra cash on hand.

'Spook, that Balvenie Doublewood is a true classic. I've had few other single malts that were so smooth and full-bodied. "Burn water" or no, Laphroaig tastes like scorched tires by comparison.
