One Million USD Whiskey at the Auction

A bottle of malt whisky was sold for a record price of 1.1million USD at an auction in Hong Kong.

The very rare 1926 Macallan scotch whisky was sold an hour after a bottle of the same vintage also changed hands for a slightly smaller seven-figure sum.

The bottles feature specially commissioned labels by the pop artists Valerio Adami, which sold for 1.1 million USD, and Peter Blake British pop art artist, which sold for just over 1million USD. (origo, MTI)
