Hmmmm... I wonder how it tastes??


ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (Wireless Flash) -- The world's most expensive single malt Scotch whiskey will soon be made available to the public by the glass.

Until now, the Macallan Scotch whiskey vintage collection of 38 bottles, which is valued at $170,000, has only been sold by the bottle.

But the Borgata hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, has decided to offer the 38 different vintages by the glass, where one glass can cost anywhere from $50 to $3,500 depending on the vintage.

The fancy schmancy Scotch is meant to be sipped not gulped, and according to a hotel spokesperson, the Borgata will have a special single-malt sommelier on hand to pour it when it's ordered.

Borgata big-wigs expect the Scotch to be popular since it is the first time it has been offered by the glass anywhere.

It will remain exclusively offered at the Borgata through June, when it may become available elsewhere.

A little too rich for my taste. Besides I don't want to taste a scotch that will make the stuff I drink taste like...well, you know what. X

I don't think they are pandering to anyone on THIS site. Hell if we could afford that do you think we'd be such skimpers as to save a few dollars on a cigar?!!

I'd just fly my personal lear jet to Hong Kong and visit a few choice bars in Wanchai and Kowloon that sell cubans and beer... mmmmmmmmm cubans and beer.
