Justin Sullivan/Getty ImagesHave you ever sipped a Macallan M whisky? If you have then you’ve certainly done well for yourself; a bottle of this spirit will set you back around $3,500. Most of us might think that paying that much for a bottle of hooch is a bit ridiculous, but there is a reason it costs so much. It took Bob Dalgarno, the master whisky maker behind the M, more than two years to craft, and it contains a blend of the world’s finest whiskeys—some which date back to 1940. All this time spent on making the drink ensured that it was of the highest possible quality. Taking the time to craft a product as perfect as Macallan M isn’t exactly in vogue in the modern world.
