Late last year, a hidden trove of whisky was discovered in a cellar room deep within a 13th century Scottish castle. The liquid was subsequently tested and determined to have been distilled back in 1833, making it the oldest known scotch in existence. Now two dozen bottles of it are going under the hammer in a November auction.

    It’s just a transfer of money, not expenditure of resources. The money doesn’t disappear when whoever owns the scotch gets it. Wasting natural resources and labor is much different and worse.
