Holy hell. The price has gone up by $100 in the last few years. I was told at the time I bought my bottle that it's one of the whiskys that goes into the Johnnie Walker blends, and the Chinese demand for Johnnie Walker was what was making the price skyrocket (to $130 at that time). Apparently, that trend hasn't abated.

I didn't know Johnny Walker used other companies' Scotch in its blends. Huh.

But yeah, even >$100 is generally too rich for my blood, especially as a gamble.

Not a gamble :)
