. . . One of the world's rarest single malt whiskies is predicted to become the most expensive bottle ever sold when it is auctioned next month.

The Macallan 1926 Fine and Rare 60 Year Old is one of only 14 of its kind.

It is expected to beat the current world record hammer price of £1.2m, which is held by a Macallan from the same original bottling batch.

I'll volunteer to take physical possession of it so there won't be any issue about storing it

Nah. I think I'll consider a less expensive brand at only CAD $85,000, available at the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (aka LCBO -- our provincially-run liquor outlet).

I think the LCBO has only one bottle available, and there's a 20-cent deposit on the bottle.

One million Euros and it's not an Islay malt? Ridiculous.
