Aged Scotch caps liquor auction
From Times Wire Reports
A bottle of 81-year-old Scotch sold for $54,000 at New York’s first liquor auction since Prohibition. An anonymous collector bought the pricey potable Saturday at Christie’s sale of wines and spirits.
The bottle was distilled at Macallan in Scotland in 1926, bottled in 1986 and rebottled in 2002. Prohibition ended in 1933, but New York state did not allow auctions of spirits until this year.
