Whats the most Expensive drink you have had?

This weekend my friend let me try some of his Johnnie Walker Blue label that he got for graduation and I thought it was amazing. I myself would never spend $200 on something that I am just going to drink away. But this was very good and smooth. I was wondering what is the most expensive thing you have ever drank?

That's awesome! My most expensive is not even close. I think my most expensive bottle would be The Glenlivet 18, or Talisker. Both are around $56. The Talisker is definitely worth it. The Glenlivet 18 is (don't hurt me) not much different from the much cheaper 12 year old.

When I was in Germany I got a bottle of Dom Perignon for my homecoming after a deployment. It was not worth it...my opinion.

I agree. Dom P. is not worth the price. I much rather have a $40 bottle of Moet White Star. That is what I had for my wedding and I think it is just as good if not better than DP.

I may have to try that, if I could find it around here. I did learn my lesson though. I normally settle for an inexpensive bottle of Asti Spumante now.

I know absolutely nothing about champagne, so I imagine I would have the same opinion.

I wonder if it would be similar to handing a Swisher Sweet smoking non-cigar aficionado a (insert expensive cigar here) and expecting them to appreciate it the way we might?

I once bought a glass of champagne for $85 for a woman in a bar..........oh nevermind....LOL. A lawyer buddy of mine once poured me a glass of Glenfiddich 40 year old scotch, that he bought in Scotland for $1200.00. It was good, but, I feel more comfortable with a glass of Jack Daniels Single Barrel @ 50 Bucks a bottle

Grand Marnier 150, technically called Cuvée Speciale Cent Cinquantenaire
$50 for a shot in a snifter.

I had a former girlfriend hurl (ralph, spew, upchuck) about $60 worth of foo-foo martinis. Lesson learned there.

I agree on the 18<12 year

I had a glass of Courvoisier XO at a restaurant one time. At $28/glass I'm glad I wasnt the one paying. That stuff was really amazing though, so smooth!

Hummmm.... I am not a scotch, beer, wine, or cognac drinker. Just never acquired a taste for them. I'd say $12.00 for a margarita. I am perfectly happy what a nice margarita with a little bite of Padron or Gold - SEVERAL of these, might I add....
