world's most expensive whiskies

Wine-Searcher's list of the world's most expensive whiskies. We've narrowed the selection down to just those whiskies which are actually available and could be purchased today (provided you have $50,000 to spare).

Because this list is dominated by Scotch single malt, we've created a separate list specifically for the Most Expensive Bourbons.
