This is called "asset inflation". Money is worthless now, because for two full years money was literally free, so anything that could possibly present a return on investment became lusted after by salivating Eloi.
Buy a bottle of wine that's been taken into low-Earth-orbit. Space Wine! 750 milliliters! 2.5 million dollarinos, please!
The Ardbeg spirit, which was distilled in 1975, was originally laid down to age in two separate casks before being transferred to a single sherry butt in 2014.
It contains sufficient spirit to fill 440 70cl bottles, valuing each one at £36,000.
Islay-based Ardbeg said the butt would be bottled gradually for its new owner over the next five years. Each year, she will receive 88 bottles.
Chinks show up with a dozen briefcases of un-laundered money and the distillery just goes "yeah okay this is fine"? >It's a digital transfer idiot!
Then why and how does it get "laundered"?
frick off Euro scumball

>Asian woman
imagine my shock
Asia includes the middle east
So it's possible it went to isreal
Israel is in europe though
Lot of money for a decoration
this
this makes me so fricking angry, the knowledge that the barrel and it's contents will never be enjoyed
The person, who bought the barrel, will die one day and the heirs will sell it.
that's very twisted, seems like no fricking way that's a thing
>new rich
yeah maybe, but still, sort of doubt it
Money laundering. Big yawn.
Obviously you don't know what money laundering is. Big stupid.
That's roughly $120,000 a bottle, depending on whether its a barrel or hogshead. Less if it's a butt.

In the mid 1980s some shit happened and ardbeg almost went out of business. Some dudes decided not to let that happen.
This whiskey is before the new ownership, so a rare taste of ardbeg's past. Part of why it must be so expensive.
there are many things I might want to spend 16 mil on, but swill is not one of them.
It's money laundering you dumb fricks.
Poorgays are so unaware it hurts.
>everything expensive is money laundering
Take some meds.
>corn syrup brain frantically calls for nondescript chemical indulgence
Stunner.
