I would certainly like to start a whiskey collection but I never seem to get beyond one bottle
Great video, high quality and good content. I enjoy and would love to collet rare whiskies as well. Cheers!
I do not drink but I like this for a collection. I am starting a Whiskey collection.
I do enjoy a rare and fine whiskey 🥃 but I don’t think I could have a rare whiskey and not drink it.
I've been selling off rare bottling to pay for me drinking other rare bottlings.
I could. Save the bottle, go to a bar and buy a dram. Or, buy two bottles (one to save, one to drink).
I was just buying whiskey in the store and one crazy woman (i assume) started to yell at me saying "drinking whiskey is a sign of toxic masculinity yada yada yada"...
I couldnt answer anything other than laugh.
Where is this world going?
😂😂😂
Seriously
Nice
Whiskey should not be an investment. All that does is allow distilleries to jack up prices and even worse allows liquor store to jack up prices even more
It's the same issue with supercars. You get these magnificent works of arts meant to be driven to the extreme and they end up sitting in a garage for their lifetime. "Investors" ruin everything.
@@TheApana To what extent is the investor's fault or the people willing to pay enormous sums of money for these rare products? If all these premium whiskies were drunk as intended (i.e. purchased and then enjoyed on special occasions) there wouldn't be a market for these products at all.
Its illegal to sell it so not sure if it is an investment
What is the best Irish whiskey to buy (up to €350) to keep as an investment?
Only some people can appreciate such things
Step one: get a million dollars.
Exactly.. I saw Kevin O'Leary in a TV program where he was invited to taste a 50 year old Balvenie, what a lucky guy...
should I collect 1) buy every year a Macallan 18 years or 2) buy from different distilleries
I'm doing both
Do collectors generally not keep the actual boxes / packaging?
we keep the boxes
also titled, "Whiskey collecting for Dbags".
Be rich or have a great income. Travel. Don't be an alcoholic. Drink very little of your collection other than one small pour every now and then. Have no friends and don't advertise your collection. Remember that cost reflects rarity, not quality of taste.
How long should Scotch last after you open the bottle?
1 year
@@gooost kinda puts a damper on my collection I wanted to start.
It depends really. If you have a bottle that is mostly empty it won't last long. If you have a bottle that is nearly full then it will last a good few years. If I have the end of a bottle I don't intend to drink for a while, I'll pour it into a miniature bottle to preserve it
Whisky from 50 -60 year ago is drinkable and fine.I know I've drank them.And especially when it's got I high proof and been looked after.As for how long it will last.Just keep decanting it into smaller bottles,and it will last for as long as you want it to.

I couldn't ever collect whisky especially expensive whisky ill end up drinking it haha
Investing in whiskey as in watches or cars is dumb. Unless you already have a fortune. You have a stock market or real estate for that. Much more comfortable, efficient and faster. That way you can actually afford to chug straight from the bottle, what others dare just to stare at.

Investing in whisky for me would be more of a passion investment so even tho you say that i wouldn't rule it out
@@stgeorge4559 I meant investing as to make money on them. Nothings wrong with buying and drinking/using stuff that makes you happy. I started my whiskey journey since the lock down and I intend to try every bottle within my reach :D gonna take years.
@@smashexentertainment676
I been drinking whisky for the past 10years you got alot to go through i highly doubt you try every bottle
And when it comes to money and investing i know what i am talking about, i understand how money works the bank works the economy everything from the top down
Does anyone really need advice to start a whiskey collection? Pretty simple buy good whiskey. And i don't want a collection just for show my whiskey is for drinking. whiskey was made to be drunk and enjoyed
Not to be put on display.
As Russian, I fail to understand a concept of aged alcohol.
There is this thing called flavor.
@@Sinier940n he said Russian they could care less about taste.
Don't worry mate Russian's fail to understand a lot of things
@@lucifer616161 It is spelled Russians, plural of Russian. If you try to say ''Russian's fail'', then you must use verb ''is'' afterwards.
Its not your fault.
Step 1, Have money!!
How to start: Winning the lottery
Nah mate good job 👍 lotto is wishful thinking
Rich man's bullshit...and I say that as a whisky lover.
Whisky!! Scotlands amber nectar.All others are just Whiskey.
Investment Whisky is a study in crime. These bottles are suspect in 1-of-3 cases according to the industry. That is a conservative estimate imo. A good pour is a damn good thing. Investments are something else entirely for me.

He must be so drunk by now!
Drink whisky, don't collect them.
I enjoy both of it.
Stop swirling the whiskey in the glass, it is unnecessary.
Nothing is necessary. Although swirling enables you to see the viscosity as well as accelerates evaporation which is vital for smelling the whiskey.
