Glenbridge Whisky

In 2011, Aldi, a German supermarket, released Glenbridge 40-year-old Scotch whisky. It cost less than £50. This was special because such old single malts are rare and expensive. They often sell for hundreds or thousands of pounds. Aldi's low price for this old whisky excited many.

The Glenbridge whisky has a strong Sherry smell. It comes from Speyside. This makes it a unique, affordable old single malt. The details about how Aldi got it or who sold it to them are secret. Some thought it could be worth over £300. But it was probably not from a famous distillery like Macallan because of its low price.

There were only about 3,000 Glenbridge bottles. Each Aldi store had about six. They were in high demand and sold out fast. Many appeared on auction sites and eBay, selling for much more than the original £49.99.
