Aged whiskeys can get really expensive, especially those over 30 - 40 years and more. Bottles of brands such as Glenfarclas 1955, 50 years old, Glenfiddich 1937, or Dalmore 62 Single Hiland Malt Scotch can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

The most expensive whiskey in the world is a 64-year old Macallan housed in a Lalique crystal decanter, which sold for a record-breaking US$460,000.
