Johnny Walker Blue King Geo V

This is from Wikipedia:

Blue Label King George V Edition - 2007 To recreate the Johnnie Walker blending style from King George V era. Oak casks dating back to the last century were used to age the whisky, sourced from distilleries operating during the reign of King George V. Special packaging in crystal decanter accompanied by an individually numbered certificate of authenticity.($550)

I agree with most sentiments that JW Blue is good, but not worth that much $$.

Here's a quote I just found about blends:
"By the time you get up into the blends that don't taste like paint thinner, you're probably paying more than you would for a decent single malt."
