It is learned that single malt whiskey was produced in November 1975 at the Ardberg distillery in Islay. The collector paid for the whiskey more than double the cost of buying the distillery and all of its stocks in 1997.

Under the terms of the deal, the barrel will be bottled in 88 bottles and regularly shipped to the buyer for five years.

The Financial Times states that the price of whiskey includes hidden costs, such as storage, insurance and bottling.

The previous record was 1 million pounds. This is how much an American collector gave in April for a barrel of Macallan Scotch whiskey made in 1988.

It was also reported that a new price record for a bottle of whiskey has been set at Sotheby’s in London. A 60 -year -old drink was sold for 1.5 million pounds (1.9 million dollars).
