Only 88 bottles of The Balvenie 50 exist worldwide, 10 alone in the United States and now the rare single-malt Scotch can be found right here in Vegas.
The Scotch was created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Balvenie malt master David Stewart, who started there as a 17-year-old apprentice in 1962, the same year Balvenie originally put this rare Scotch in barrels.
Sips of this $30,000 bottle of Scotch go for $3,400 per 1.5-ounce pour at the tony Talon Club, the high-end speakeasy and high-limits room at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Apparently the room became the first spot to land the swanky sip back in October.
