    Hi Mark, it's great to see you again. I can't tell you how happy I am to see Rocky as well. I used to have a Yorkie. Well, back in Korea? Do tell. I have had a bottle of this Arran 18 and I remember it being very good. It's some years ago though and I'm not sure it's being produced any more. There seems to be a 17 year old version with similar spec doing the rounds.
    Isn't it interesting how the world of whisky has changed during our period of occupancy my friend. It wasn't that long ago when we were buying and drinking whisky like this all the time. I want cask strength if it's over £100 these days. I couple of nights ago I dipped into the stash and opened my final Old Pulteney 21 and it's absolutely delicious. I'd forgotten how good old, top dressed, whisky can be. The whisky in my bunker is worth a tidy sum bit I never bought it to flip. I knew the day would come when old whisky would be out of reach so I put aside a few for the future. A few became boxes cluttering the house and so I've decided the time is right to start opening that good stuff, enjoying it and decluttering. My wife has been extraordinarily patient.
    All the best. WT

      Epic comment WT! Thanks so much. Yep, a big move, but for the better.
      Likewise, it’s time to crack some of the stash. We knew this day would come but I never figured it would be this soon! That OP 21 must be special. The 17 is already top notch! Cheers my friend🥃🥃🥃🥃Always nice to hear from you.

    Wonderful review Mark. Thanks 🥃
    I've reached for this bottle a few times but wasn't absolutely sure... I am now. Especially since it's priced much more reasonably than most 18 year old sherried single malts.

    I have a question. Months ago, probably over a year at this point, we were talking about the Bowmore 21 Master's cut Aston Martin. We were talking about enjoying it as a dram and about as an investment. I checked whisky base the other day, and at one point is was over €1200, now it has dropped to € 840. Why would that happen to such an amazing bottle of rare whisky? Is that normal? And does that mean it's not as great an investment, or could it still go back up and beyond in time to come? I love whisky for enjoying, but there is also a real excitement and passion I find in collecting and investing, but such a blow when the 2ndary value plummets! Anyway, glad you're well! Slainte!

    • @WhiskyWhistle
      @WhiskyWhistle  Před 2 měsíci

      Yes I recall - I think as the newer editions were released some of the excitement of the first edition dissipated. But yes I think it will recover. Even 840 Euros is much more than I paid, and it should eventually sell for more than the subsequent editions. I think long term it will do well as it’s essentially cask strength, long aged, and plus a unique Aston collab. Plus it looks like interest rates are beginning to drop which should increase spending money and increase values on collectibles. Then there’s the increasing thirst in China and India(even Korea)
      Just my thoughts!
      Sometimes long term is key. I have a Glenfiddich 21 Havana that I bought 10 years ago. It didn’t budge until about 3 or 4 years ago. But I might just end up opening it along with a newer version!
      Cheers bud🥃🥃🥃🥃

      @@WhiskyWhistle Great info! I might just be tempted to open many of my "current" collectables as well. The whisky lover in me seems to outdo the investor in me. Hopefully I can muster the disappoint to keep a few good ones. Cheers!

    Had 3 of these a few years ago when they were around 124 cad. Down to 1 bottle left and finding it harder and harder to get another backup as they sell out so fast in Alberta.

    • @WhiskyWhistle
      @WhiskyWhistle  Před 2 měsíci

      Hope you can find one. If they come in at $200 I’ll get another. These newer distilleries should hopefully take the pressure off..in 10-15 years 🤣🤣
