Question
What can you tell me about this? Can i drink it?! Kidding. What year is it from? I can't tell. Any value to a whisky lover?

Hi Victor
Ye, you can drink it. It's been distilled, so there is nothing in there that can hurt you. I am sorry, but they never date distilled spirits, so it's really hard to give you an accurate age.
And here is the interesting part--because this is so high in alcohol, it won't have changed much in the bottle, for better or for worse. Good news? Should taste just fine. Bad news? It isn't worth any more than a current bottling--at least to a whisky lover.
But you might get a nice tax write-off if you donated it to the local museum...
Hope that helps.
