70-year old whiskey

May 18, 2006 14 Replies

Hi,



I am hoping to get my father a bottle of 70year old whiskey for his



70th birthday this year... I am unaware of any company who may have a product of this age. The oldest i'm aware of is 50yr old.

Can anyone enlighten me as to any company who have a 70yr old specimen?



Thanks



Ryan

I was curious what a 70 year old would cost, but no matter how hard I look, I can't find a search engine on that site.

about $1100:) Click on SHOP on the top left of the page. Then the button EINTRITT. Then put 1936 in the search window on the right hand side of the page.

"The only things I hate are bigots and Texans." It is depressing how many people simply agree with me without appreciating the irony.

The Whiskey Exchange lists a few from 1936..

Mostly Mortlach, but a Macallan and a Glen Grant as well (Availability not known) - Prices range from £700 to £1250..

And if you'd give us a shot of that we'd be grateful... :-) Anders

I thought the OP was looking for a whiskey, not a whisky?

(Sorry)

You are quite correct, Steve. I noticed the same thing, so either he's looking for a Bourbon or Irish, or he's not a serious Scotch drinker.

Nick he could just be a lousy speller? It takes a very smart man to spell a word more than one way:)

That was my first reaction, but I accused myself of being snotty!

And for all we know, maybe he really is looking for a whiskey, so maybe it was a valid point to raise anyway!

I know - and I have to admit I was a bit drunk when I posted. It's just one of those things that jumps out at me. And if I ever spelled it the 'other' way, living where I do, I'd probably get lynched!

I completely understand. Once in a while I'll see that the "e" is missing in a non Scotch Whisky, and it bugs me to no end!

If you're drinking "Grants", who cares -- you may be blind inside a week anyway -- but after a few bottles of , that stuff matters!

"I completely understand. Once in a while I'll see that the "e" is missing in a non Scotch Whisky, and it bugs me to no end! "

I'm not sure I understand which you are refering to.

Are you talking about Irish and American whiskeys that are mispelled by the drop of the "e"?...

Non Scotch Whisky from countries that traditionally do not include the "e"... Canada, Japan, New Zealand, etc...

Or, Irish and American whiskys correctly excluding the "e" contrary to a national tradition to include it... Maker's Mark, Dickel, Peregrine Rock (American), or O'Donnels', and Cork Distilleries (Irish)?

Thanks, John
