41 year old Canadian Club
Now available at $269 a bottle. I will likely pass.

I never cared for regular CC. No way I'm shelling out that kind of cabbage.

I believe aging statements refer to time prior to bottling. Some wine ages in concrete and stainless steel. whiskey is usually in barrels of one kind or another depending on the whiskey.
the CC ages in oak https://robbreport.com/food-drink/sp...hisky-2830757/

It seems to be garnering generally positive reviews (as did the 40-year old release). Not too oak-laden for such a venerable whisky, either. But, as stated, the price is a sticking point.

My Dad still has a can of Billy Beer in his basement. He thought it might be worth money some day.
