How long does it take for this product to mature....? Fresh whiskey, carefully produced in a brand new distillery, packed in a polished timber storage case locked with a gold key. $5'000 a bottle. Line up suckers with your AmEx black cards in hand. At least the bottle of whiskey would cost less than the annual fee for the black card!
