If you have R75 000 in your wallet to spare and fancy purchasing a limited edition 50-year-old Glenfiddich whisky, then get down to the Whisky Expo at Suncoast Casino where a bottle is on sale.

But be warned, there is only one bottle at the expo, so it’s first come, first served.

If, however, that is slightly out of your price range, you could always just stare at it and dream. Maybe even touch it.

The Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky is recorded in the Guinness Book of Records as “the World’s Most Valuable Spirit” after another bottle from the same year sold for about $80 000 (about R548 800) at an auction in Milan in 1991.

This translates to about $2800 per 25ml dram.
