Regrettably, this product is non-returnable and non-exportable.
Damn! I was just about to order a couple of cases to surprise you too...
Never mind, I'll see if I can find you a bottle of this instead. I'm sure it'll be just as good!

I was thinking this might be an acceptable substitute:

It's been my experience that really great scotch is not worth it. Sure it tastes good and is smooth, but at $13000 a bottle, forget about it. Jonny Walker black is fine and only $40.
My brother bought a bottle of Jonny Walker Blue for my 50th birthday (about $150/bottle) and while it was nice, it wasn't worth the price.

That price is in UK pounds O-n-W, which translates to $21,578.07 US or $21,646.54 Au or $21,945.01 Can.
I've had a shot of a 300 quid a bottle whisky, and while it was wonderful, I couldn't justify the price of a second gulp.

Oh $21,578 is much more reasonable.
Nothing you consume (eat/drink) is worth that much. A car yes, and at least it stays around a lot longer than a bottel of scotch (at least in my house).

Hey, what happened to that bottle of scotch those archeologists dug up? Did they try it or not?

What, are you kidding?
You couldn't run a gas powered lawn mower on it....

Pushed the boat out on holiday, at the vineyards, we had;
Wolf Blass "Black Label Cabernet Savignon/Shiraz/Malbec" 2006 ($130.00 bottle)
Wolf Blass "Platinum Label Shiraz" 2007 ($169.00 bottle)
But my favourite of all, and I'm having a case of it for my next birthday;
Kaesler "Old Bastard" 2005 ($160.00 bottle.)
Absolute liquid velvet the lot of them.
