Whiskey from the Revolutionary War

You can buy a good bottle of bourbon in June if you win the auction at Skinner Auction in Boston. You only need to spend between $20,000 and $40,000, they say. The Old Ingledew Whiskey is believed to be the oldest known whiskey in existence.

Analysis by the University of Georgia concluded that the bourbon was likely produced between 1762-1802. It's not clear where it was produced. Rumor has it that JP Morgan bought this bottle and FDR and Harry Truman were given bottles of the same brand.

While this may be the oldest known bottle of whiskey, it's nowhere near the most expensive. In 2019, the Macallan Fine and Rare 60-Year-Old 1926 became the most expensive bottle of wine or spirit ever auctioned when it sold for $1.9 million.
