Thanks. Their press release confused me about that bit. So I guess the real question is, now that you've tried it, and as we're on this big discussion of whisky values, do you think it's overvalued at $600? I'm rather fond of the Yamazaki 12 and 18, and I could buy quite a few of both of them for $600. Is this '84 vintage really that much better? Gotcha. Thanks.

The 750ml bottles come in cases of six bottles per case. That's how they're shipped to the distributor, but they are sold one bottle at a time. Neil, it’s $600 for a 750ml bottle.

I saw the price as $600 for 6 bottles, 750ml. Are these 6 125ml bottles in a box totaling 750ml for $600 ? Is the purpose of this to keep things fresher longer? Sharing with friends (an expensive gift)? Just because they can? So how does this packaging work, exactly? I saw the price as $600 for 6 bottles, 750ml.
