One time

One time, my brother and I were on a road trip from Texas to California. Along the way we decided to stop in Vegas for the night, as neither of us had been before. It was a long drive and we figured we would get some rooms at the Luxor. After checking in we went down to the bar to grab a drink and get some change to go gamble a little. As we walk up I noticed a bottle of Macallan 30 year old single malt scotch sitting on the shelf behind the bar. I had never seen this scotch and I immediately ordered a glass my brother did the same. We hand the bartender a 100 each and he gives us the drinks. I take a sip and it is the most wonderful scotch I have ever tasted, light, fruity, with hits of smoke and the sea. As I turn back to the bar to get my change the bartender hands me 2 dollars. Well shit... Not what I was expecting. I felt like a jackass but damn that was the best whiskey I've ever had. And that's the story of the most expensive shot I ever bought.

Retail price for a bottle of Macallan 30yo is 2699

Wow, I bought a 300$ shot of tequila once and didn’t think it was worth it perhaps I just don’t have as refined a pallet.

I can't see paying that much for tequila, but hey if you would have asked me before I bought mine I would have said the same thing about whiskey. Stupid paying that much for any alcohol

Agreed I was young and had enough money at the time to be stupid.

But it was aged in barrels made from the wood of Jesus' cross!

(Really, only something like this to charge $300 for a shot)
