| At least with 30000 available you have time to wait and read some reviews before buying |

| The reviews really would have to be very good to get 30000 people to pay £190 for a 17 year old |

If we have four releases and this follows the same price increases as Thor Odin etc to complete the collection you could be looking at £250 for the last bottle.
I have got a feeling this will sit next to the Bowmore Devils cask 3 collecting stoor on shop shelves.
The bottle and case are just a bit tacky, I certainly would not want it on display.
Wonder if the whisky is good

We got it delivered to my pub. I quite like the bottle as it stands out on the Gantry and people are already talking about it. I haven't sold any or tried any yet but when I do I will give my opinion.
