I have never heard of this release, let alone seen a bottle of it. If anyone could post a picture, I am sure, it would be appreciated by all. $600 is a lot's and lot's of money for a bottle of anything, especially a scotch. My first thought, is of my opinions of the JW Blue, which are not very high. Yes, it's a truly great scotch, but it is no way worth the price, somewhere in the $160 to $180 range. There are a host of blends and single malts out there in the $60 to $90 range that are much better, at least IMHO. That alone makes me very suspicious as to the quality of a $600 bottling!
