Damn.. I can't imagine having that many bottles. I'm already running out of room to store new ones in my office. I might have to convert my media room into a whiskey cave if my collection gets much larger.
Guinness lists a place in Lisbon as the world record holder with 10,500 bottles... took the guy 60 years to build that collection. There's no estimated value of this collection that can be found online, but the guy with the largest private collection in the U.S. whose name is aptly Dewayne Poor, has 6,500 bottles estimated to be worth $10 million.
