Smoke Head or Sherry Bomb?

Here's a few from long closed distilleries that were recently released by Diageo.
These are extremely rare and obviously meant for the extremely well heeled.
1. Clockserrie 1924 (Highland) £120,000
2. Malt Mill 1909 (Islay) £135,000
3. Parkmore 1926 (Speyside) £49,999
BTW: A very nice single malt Scotch whisky can be had starting at $60-70.
Recently purchased an Ardbeg "Airigh nam Beist" for $61.99 although I wouldn't recommend it for beginners cause it's a "wee beastie" of a whisky.

Yes, I know the examples cited were extreme but a previous poster asked what rarities might cost. These are about as rare as they get.
As mentioned, good single malt whiskys can be had for much, much less.

I tasted the new 18yo Laphroaig on Sunday at a friends, thought it was excellent. I saw it at a local bottle shop for $64 but $85 is probably closer to normal.

We also tasted an 18yo Longrow, 1969 25yo Bowmore and 17yo Ardbeg (no longer available). Quite a night :^).

BTW: Found 1/2 bottle of the Bowmore and 2/3 bottle of the Ardbeg in one of my kitchen cabinets. Some other stuff was in front of it.

BTW2: I've tasted 25yo and 30yo Laphroaig and the 30yo might be my favorite whisky of all time.

Well Bongofury,
Some people had barley, others had sugar cane :^)
