Auchentoshan 1965, 40 Year old
Glenfarclas 40
Bowmore 1955, 40 Year old
There are also a slew of Macallans over 40 years and too many independant bottlings to even start to list.
But generally speaking, 40 year old whisky is past it's prime. They just get too woody after that many years in the barrel. There are exceptions, but you stand a good chance of paying $2000 for a OK whisky. So be careful and read lots of reviews before you purchase somthing this old.
