The most expensive drink you've drank?

davet82

I was reading about some guy in england who ran up a bar bill £121,000 in just 3 hours, http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4696506/playboy-blows-121000-on-champagne-after-casino-win.html , spending £26,000 on one bottle of champagne alone...

Now the most expensive thing i've ever drank was an €8 shot of grey goose (didnt notice any difference between the cheap tesco vodka although i did mix with red bull ), €7.60 for pint bottle of bulmers in Temple bar a couple of years ago and of €4.25 for a room tempature mocha in Starbucks...

Anyways what was the most you've paid for a drink and was it worth it?


I'd love to know what a £26,000 glass of wine taste like tbh, i wonder does it make you live longer or somethin, cause it would fcuking want to at that bloody price!

I've spent well over a grand for bottles of champagne or whisky when I've been out quite a few times.

Most expensive I've drank was an £8000 bottle of champagne that someone else bought though.

Some fancy Remy Martin that was 2k for a ten glass bottle, by the neck.:)

I got a gift one year back in the off a company i'd done some work for.Inside there was a bottle of water called bling which was worth 70 euro or something.

Pighead

No idea but guessing that it was probably bought in one of the classy establishments in Leeson St. Sold by some charlatan with the words "Would sir like a bottle of our finest liebfraumilch for a knock down price of €34?".

What's with the comma in the thread title? Was the OP asking an expensive drink if it's ever drank?

Last year I bought a glass of 35 year old Middleton for €440. Though expensive, was unreal*


just as unreal as the whole story.

I once had a Remy Martin XO bought for me. I swallowed it in one go like a neanderthal due to being drunk at the time. It was all well and good until the next morning when I was told it was IR£45 (punts) a shot at the time. I nearly puked into my vomit.

for a bottle in privalge? i think you got off lightly. When i was there, a friend of mine had the first round and paid that price for 2 shots of vodka and one red bull... i went missing for the second round

it's a lovely drink too, up there with the Hennessy XO, which I buy every year for Christmas, along with a Johnny Walker Blue Label. Possibly my two favourite drinks.

The other half and I had cocktails in the Hemingway Bar at the Ritz Cartlton in Paris last year.

2 cocktails and a plate of 4 sliders came to €75. Was outstanding though.

Was there for new years once - it would've been cheaper to go out in dublin AND get mugged on the way home! And every second pub/club/restaurant shut up at around 9pm - on new years eve!!:eek: Beautiful place full though

Had 150 year old Hennessy once... it was absolutely delicious. The nicest booze I've ever tasted.

It costs 2,500 a bottle..... :eek:

(I wasnt buying the round... it was in the Hennessy tasting tour!)

chakotha

Hennessy X.O. most likely.

I bought a beer at the o2 once......dear lord what was I thinking. I think it was €6 per bottle.

100 euro bottle of champagne. Drank it out of a plastic cup.

Lets see how the snobs like that.

Yep, same here, once is enough as it's €8 for a glass (not pint) of their local beer in a bar and €14 for a lukewarm bottle of Carlsberg in a night club.

It is a lovely city, but prior to afformentioned pissup, I went to the HardRock cafe, burger+fries and a beer....€35.

Near the end we were drinking some mad **** cocktails in a tiki bar(dont ask), they must have been 25-30 euro each.

€18 for a vodka and a dash of orange in most of the nightclubs in Ibiza. €10+ for bottles of water. All after paying between €50 and €70 just to get in the door.

I purchased two litre bottles of Absolut in Dublin airport for €10 each, along with an 8 pack of RedBull, as we knew that it was going to be really expensive.

It was a wise move because I spend over €100 in a only few hours on food and drinks in a local bar so nipped back to the hotel to get wasted before hitting the club.

Unbelievably expensive up there but the women are absolutely phenomenal looking to balance everything out! :pac:

My brother buys loads of weird things for the bar. He bought a bottle of alcohol with a cobra in it, that cost a couple of hundred.

Most expensive I've actually drank was a bottle of champagne costing over 3,000 euro. My sister got it free from her old job I'll stick to my 5euro lidl wine I think
