4. Dalmore 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch Matheson

Dalmore 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch Matheson

With a price tag of $58,000 Dalmore 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch is on the number four spot. It’s produced from a blend of four single malt whiskies. Each of the four whiskies is from different years.

There were only twelve bottles filled of Dalmore 62 Highland Malt Scotch in 1942 with unique names and labels. Matheson was named after Alexander Matheson, the owner of the Dalmore Estate and is the most expensive in the collection. Whyte and Mackay own another bottle and the remaining ten are captive of a private collection.

A bottle of the 62 Single Highland Malt Scotch was purchased in 2005 anonymously for $58,000 and finished by the buyer and his five friends then. Howzztat!
