I got the 21 year last month when I was at Narita. I think it was $150 USD.

But I agree, it is not the price, it is the rarity. Even my scotch source here in Manhattan (Ambassador on 2nd Ave), have never even seen it before (they have the 17 in stock). And these guys know more about scotch and whisky than anyone I have ever met.

It is the highlight of my collection.
