30 year old tequila
A rather eccentric family friend who had traveled the world gave me a bottle of Tequilla. Nice I though, box looks a bit tatty. Still it's spirits so it should be fine.

The first time I dug it out I actually read the label. It was a Jose Curvza Reserva De Familia, numbered, bought in the 70s. It was already 30 years old when bought, I got it 30 years later. I didn't know this until I had cracked it open at a party. Doing shots of it like any cheap Tequilla.

Christ knows what it would have been worth, box n all, but everyone who tasted it asked about it as it wasn't your average Tequilla.

Still gave me a Tequilla hangover...

I had to tell myself that
when surveying the bottled wreckage of my house over the weekend - only just bought it as well

In answer to your 'what's it worth' question - would probably say £200 based on my lazy search www.drinksdirect.co.uk/acatalog/Jose_Cuervo_Reserva_Tequila.html

Whisky Exchange has quite a few old bottles
