I was just perusing the Quebec Canada SAQ site equivalent to the LCBO in Ontario though carrying some different single malt expressions. I noticed this one in a 750 ml bottle going for $49, 400 Canadian or 31438.21 British Pound Sterling per bottle.
To put this into perspective one can buy a used 1967 MOONEY M20F EXEC 21 pre-owned working aircraft for $38,000 dollars and have an additional $11, 400 dollars left to buy 11 quality single malts for about 1.000. dollars each. All of this for the equivalent price of one "SUPER" bottle.
Just a reality check here folks.

Murray, I am sure the Balvenie 50 year old 1952 was only £20000 when it was released last year in the UK not sure if there has been a huge mark up/tax your side of the water.
