If it is winter time, I would like Macallan 12 single malt Scotch or Grand Marnier.
Macallan says the scotch has been vatted from three casks, all built from sherry seasoned Spanish oak.
And also the Edrington Group, based in Glasgow, with brands including Famous Grouse, Macallan and Highland Park.
The Macallan Distillers, in partnership with crystal-maker Lalique, have created this one-of-a-kind bottle to benefit charity: water.
The ultimate expression of the propensity of distilleries to release limited-edition, old whiskies is Macallan's Fine and Rare Collection.
Anyone with the most rudimentary knowledge on the subject understands this is akin to equating Macallan 25 year-old Scotch with hillbilly moonshine.

Macallan mined its extensive stock of old casks and chose 37 of their best to bottle as part of a well-defined set.
Macallan, with its full-bodied, sherry character, is always an enjoyable pairing.
The Edrington group, whose brands include The Macallan and Famous Grouse, is said to be one of Scotland's biggest private manufacturing companies and exports five million cases a year.
For those who like to mix it up, there are also five hand-crafted cocktails available, including the Jimmy Mac, made with Macallan 18 year old, Benedictine (a cognac-based liqueur), Amaro Averna (an Italian digestif) and orange bitters.
In addition to the premiere auction item, 10 small flasks The Macallan Lalique Bottle auctioned off around the world starting back in April 2010 and culminating in the final record-breaking Lalique decanter sale last night.
Ferrand, whom they bought out, was located in Grande Champagne, the most prestigious of the six cognac districts. (Champagne refers to chalky soil, also found where the sparkling wine of the same name is made.) That lucky happenstance gave Andreu and Gabriel the idea of creating a single-district cognac, similar to the single-malt Scotch brands like Macallan and Laphroaig that revitalized the Scotch business in the 1980s.
