Another
pricey Scotch whisky has been sold
for an impressive number. This time it's the Chivas Royal Salute.
Gustad recently proclaimed his love of the 21-year-old
Royal Salute, this scotch is the 50-year version which was created to mark the 50th birthday of the brand and the
Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Bottle number one of a batch of 255 was r
ecently sold in Auckland for $30,000. The bottle
was originally given to Sir Edmund Hillary in 2003 and it was bought back by Chivas Brothers, with the proceeds going
to the Himalayan Trust for development work in Nepal. Not all the bottles were sold for such a high price, but they all
sold for a minimum of $8888.
