The 190-year-old whisky is expected to sell for over $12,000 a bottle. Here are all the details on the liquid, including how you can get your hands on some of it.

Late last year, a hidden trove of whisky was discovered in a cellar room deep within a 13th century Scottish castle. The liquid was subsequently tested and determined to have been distilled back in 1833, making it the oldest known scotch in existence. Now two dozen bottles of it are going under the hammer in a November auction.

    Many highly marketed drinks are just slightly better low grade alcohol.

    Many alcoholic drinks do have different characteristics and flavour profiles. You also don’t need to go super high end to experience them. If you wanted to learn more go to a tasting event. You don’t need to spend a lot to access go quality stuff. In fact the higher quality accessable stuff isn’t marketed very well.

    High end alcohols won’t taste like the very sweet soft drinks. If you want or expect something like that your not going to get it.
