If you are given a choice to try an alcohol that expensive, even if you don't care for that type of alcohol, it would be an experience. I'm not a wine drinker, but if someone said that I'd have an opportunity to taste a wine that was $1,500 a bottle I'd probably give it a shot to see what it was like.
For someone who has only posted in this thread for the past two years, seems like you might be the one with the problem and not Ben? Seems like a waste of a Flyertalk account, but to each their own I guess.
